Molecular Elucidation of in vitro spermatogenesis in the testis organ culture

ABSTRACT: Cultivation of neonatal mouse testis tissue can induce spermatogenesis and produce fertile sperms. However, this in vitro spermatogenesis by the current organ culture method comes short in fully mimicking the in vivo counterpart, partly due to a lack of knowledge about the underlying molecular phenotypes. In this study, we investigated transcriptome of cultured testis tissues using microarray method. Principle component analysis of the transcriptome data revealed delay and/or arrest of spermatogenesis and immediate radical immune reactions in the cultured testis tissues. The delay/arrest of spermatogenesis occurred before and during early meiotic phase, resulting in inefficient progression of meiosis. The immune reaction, on the other hand, was drastic and overwhelming, in which TLR4-NF-kB signaling was speculated to be involved. Notably, treatment with TAK242, an inhibitor of TLR4-NF-kB signaling pathway, ameliorated the macrophage activation which otherwise would exacerbate the inflammation. The present study revealed for the first time the immense immune reaction in the cultured tissue by transcriptomic analysis, which could be a cause of the inefficiency of in vitro spermatogenesis.

NF-kB Broadly Orchestrates Nucleosome Remodeling during the Primary Response to Toll-Like Receptor 4 Signaling [scATAC-seq]

Project description:Inducible nucleosome remodeling at hundreds of latent enhancers and several promoters helps shape the transcriptional response to Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling in macrophages. However, the identities of the transcription factors that promote TLR-induced remodeling have remained elusive. An analysis strategy that enriched ATAC-seq profiles for genomic regions most likely to undergo remodeling uncovered a unique relationship between NF-kB and TLR4-induced remodeling events. A critical functional role for NF-kB in remodeling was then revealed by CRISPR-Cas9 mutagenesis of NF-kB genes and binding motifs. This critical role is broad and possibly universal during the TLR4 primary response. Remodeling selectivity at defined regions is often conferred by collaboration between NF-kB and other inducible factors, including IRF3 and MAP kinase-induced factors. Thus, NF-kB is unique among TLR4-induced transcription factors in its broad contribution to inducible nucleosome remodeling, alongside its well-established ability to activate poised enhancers and promoters assembled into open chromatin.

LPS-induced gene expression changes in phraryngeal epithelial cells

Project description:Gram negative endotoxin Lypopolysaccharide (LPS) leads to a strong innate immune response through TLR4 signalling. This latter pathway activates cannonical NF-kB pathway, including its member RELA. Here, we want to investigate the gene expression response induced by LPS recognition.

Transcription of Tnfaip3 is regulated by NF-kB and p38 via C/EBPβ in activated macrophages

Project description:Macrophages play a pivotal role in the immune system through recognition and elimination of microbial pathogens. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) on macrophages interact with microbial substances and initiate signal transduction through intracellular adapters. TLR4, which is important for the response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), triggers downstream signaling mediators and eventually activates IkB kinase (IKK) complex and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) such as p38. Previous reports revealed that, in addition to NF-kB, the induction of some LPS-inducible genes in macrophages required another transcription factor whose activity depends on p38. However, these transcription factors remained to be identified. Among these genes, NF-kB and C/EBPβ, a p38 downstream transcription factor, were predicted to co-regulate genes in LPS-stimulated BMDMs. Based on the subsequent results of a chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, we demonstrated that Tnfaip3 is regulated by both NF-kB and p38-dependent C/EBPβ. These results elucidate our understanding of the tight regulation of innate immunity. In order to identify p38-activated transcription factors that cooperate with NF-kB in response to LPS stimulation, microarrays were used to identify genes regulated by both NF-kB and p38 using wild-type, IKK-depleted, and p38 inhibitor-treated mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). In silico analysis of transcription factor binding sites was used to predict the potential synergistic transcription factors from the co-expressed genes.

Developmental LTbR synergistically activates TLR4 mediated inflammatory RelA/NF-kB response

Project description:Developmental signals are known to modulate inflammation. How ever, the mechanistic insight that links developmental and inflammatory signaling remains elusive. In the current study, we identifya critical role of NF-kB system in mediating stimulus specific crosstalk that allows developmental LTbR signals to sustain inflammatory TLR4 induced RelA/NF-kB response and gene expression. LTbR activated non-canonical signaling targets canonical TLR4 induced, nfkb2 encoded p100 not only to deplete inhibitory IkBd/(p100)2, but also to supplement RelA:p52/NF-kB dimers. Robust crosstalk in the gut epithelial cells are important, as crosstalk-defective nfkb2-/- mice succumbed to gut infection by Citrobacter rodentium due to hypo-inflammatory responses. Finally, we present evidence for a crosstalk motif that integrates tissue microenvironment derived developmental cues to ameliorate the pathogen response. Total RNA from WT early passage MEFs stimulated with ligands LPS, LTbR and LPS+LTbR for 24hrs were analyzed for global gene expression levels

Selective Regulation of a Defined Subset of Inflammatory and Immunoregulatory Genes by an NF-kB p50-IkBz Pathway

Project description:The five NF-kB family members and three nuclear IkB proteins play diverse biological roles, but the mechanisms by which distinct NF-kB and NF-kB: IkB complexes contribute to selective gene transcription remain poorly understood. Using nascent transcript RNA-seq, we observed considerable overlap between p50-dependent and IkBz-dependent genes in Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-activated macrophages. Key inflammatory and immunoregulatory genes, including Il6, Il1b, Nos2, Lcn2, and Batf, were among the p50-IkBz co-dependent genes. IkBz typically bound genomic sites occupied earlier by NF-kB dimers. However, p50-IkBz co-dependence did not coincide with preferential binding of either protein, as p50, IkBz, and RelA co-occupied thousands of sites. A common feature of p50-IkBz co-dependent genes was close proximity to a p50/RelA/IkBz co-bound site exhibiting p50-dependent binding of RelA and IkBz. This result and others suggest that IkBz function is not restricted to p50 homodimers. Notably, IkBz and the p50-IkBz target genes comprise a high percentage of genes that exhibited the greatest differential expression between TLR4-stimulated and tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR)-stimulated macrophages, with ectopic IkBz rescuing a subset of these genes. These results reveal a defined p50-IkBz pathway that selectively activates a set of key inflammatory and immunoregulatory genes and serves as an important contributor to the differential responses to TNFR and TLR4.
