Project description:The goal of this study was to identify genes that are regulated by TGF-b-signaling in thymic iNKT1 cells. To specifically target Tgfbr2 deletion to iNKT1 cells we created Tbx21Cre bacterial artifical chromosome transgenic mice with a Rosa26-floxed-stop-YFP reporter and floxed alleles of Tgfbr2 . We examined gene expression by RNA-sequencing in sorted iNKT1 cells (CD1d-Tet-PBS57+ YFP+) from Ctrl (Tbx21Cre; Rosa26-YFP+) and cKO (Tbx21Cre; Rosa26-YFP+; Tgfbr2F/F) mice. Reads were aligned to the mm10 reference genome using STAR v2.5.2. Reads were assigned to genes using the htseq-count tool from HTSeq v 0.6.1 and gene annotations from Ensembl release 78. Differential expression was calculated across 3 independent replicates by EdgeR. We found that TGF-b was required for normal numbers of iNKT1 cells and induced a classic TGF-b gene program in thymic iNKT1 cells but did not regulate expression of Tbx21 (T-bet).

Project description:iNKT cells are generated in thymus and settle all organs and tissues in mice. We used RNA high throughput sequencing to identify genes that displayed an organ specific expression by comparing iNKT1 cells of thymus, liver, blood, and spleen origin, respectively. We observed organ specific expression of a variety of genes that might reflect specialized functional adaptations connected to the unique micro-environments of the investigated organs.

Project description:Purpose: We aimed to define the molecular pathways and the transcriptome signature of experimental EoE treated WT mice Methods: 1cm piece of the middle part from the esophagus of OXA or Vehicle treated WT mice was obtained for RNA extraction using TRIZOL . Thereafter, RNA samples were prepared for sequencing using the CEL-Seq2 protocol, with minor modifications. Briefly, purified RNA (2 ng) was taken as input for library preparation. Thereafter, the CEL-Seq library was run on an Illumina NextSeq550 instrument. The number of reads ranged from 6,819,051 to 34,217,489 per sample. The reads were mapped to the Mus musculus, GRCm38 genome using Tophat2 version 2.1.0, with up to 2 mismatches allowed per read, the minimum and maximum intron sizes were set to 50 and 100,000, respectively, and an annotation file was provided to the mapper. The percentage of uniquely mapped reads ranged from 86.64% to 90.05% per sample. Only uniquely mapped reads were counted to genes, using 'HTSeq-count' package version 0.6.1 with ‘union’ mode. Normalization and differential expression analyses were conducted using DESeq2 R package version 1.28.0. Sample preparation, sequencing, quality control, and differential expression analyses were conducted by the "Technion Genome Center," Life Science and Engineering Interdisciplinary Research Center, Technion, Haifa, Israel. Results: Experimental EoE is characterized by predominant inflammation response, proliferation, and epithelial changes. Conclusion:We demonstrate that our new experimental EoE model results with an inflammation signature associated with type 2 immunity

Project description:Evaluation of modulation of the innate immune response during H1N1 infection. The modulatory effect of Single-stranded oligonucleotides (ssON) on monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MoDCs) are evaluated. RNAseq data are used to study the effect on the transcriptome of MoDCs, during infection with simultaneous addition of ssON. Further mechanistic information are added via RNAseq data on poly I:C stimulated MoDCs (Toll-Like Receptor 3 agonist). Control samples are included to perform differential expression analysis. Provided are the fastq files, obtained in the following manner: The RNA sequencing was performed with the TruSeq RiboZero kit from Illumina, 25 M reads per sample and 2x125bp. Read quality were assessed using FastQC (Version 0.11.5) Trim Galore (Version 0.3.6) was used for adapter removal and quality trimming with a quality threshold of 20 on the Phred scale. Count files was created out of the trimmed fastq by mapping high-quality reads to Homo sapiens UCSC hg38 (GRCh38.77) reference genome using STAR aligner (version 2.5) with default values and the parameter out Reads Unmapped set to Fastx in order to extract the unmapped reads. After STAR alignment, the count data for the aligned reads were generated with HTSeq-count (version 0.6.1). The-m parameter was set to union.

Project description:Purpose: We aimed to define the molecular pathways that are regulated by IL13Ra1 in our experimental murine EoE model Methods: 1cm piece of the middle part from the esophagus of OXA or Vehicle treated WT or Il13ra1 KO mice were obtained for RNA extraction using TRIZOL. Thereafter, RNA samples were prepared using the CEL-Seq2 protocol, as published by Hashimshony et al. Genome Biology (2016) 17:77, with minor changes. Instead of single-cells as input, 2 ng purified RNA was taken as input for library preparation. The CEL-Seq library was run on an Illumina NextSeq550 instrument.

Project description:The goal of this study was to determine how gene expression changes when Id2 and Tcf7 are deleted in bone marrow natural killer cells as compared to NK cells in which only Id2 or Tcf7 are deleted. We sorted NK1.1+CD49b+ cells from the bone marrow of mice with each of the indicated genotypes. Reads were aligned to the mm10 reference genome by Tophat2.1.0. Reads were assigned to genes using the htseq-count tool from HTSeq v 0.6.1 and gene annotations from Ensembl release 78. Differential expression was calculated across 3 independent replicates by EdgeR. We found that NK cells lacking Id2 had reduced expression of mature NK cell genes and increased expression of immature genes and known E protein target genes. Deletion of Tcf7 in ID2-deficient NK cells partially restored expression of maturation associated genes and decreased immature genes bringing their gene expression profiles closer to that of Ncr1Cre Tcf7F/F or Ctrl NK cells.

Project description:This goal of this study was to identify genes that are deregulated in the absence of EZH2 in early lymphocyte progenitors. Due to a requirement for EZH2 to repress Cdkn2a in early B and T cell development we generated Cdkn2a-/-Ezh2fl/fl Il7racre/+ mice. We examined gene expression by RNA-sequencing in sorted pro-B cells (B220+CD19+CD43+), DN3 cells (Lin- CD25+ CD117-), from Cdkn2a-/- Ezh2fl/fl Il7racre/+ and Cdkn2a-/- Il7racre/+ control mice. Reads were aligned to the mm10 reference genome by Tophat2.1.0. Reads were assigned to genes using the htseq-count tool from HTSeq v 0.6.1 and gene annotations from Ensembl release 78. Differential expression was calculated across 3 independent replicates by EdgeR. We found that pro-B and DN3 cells remain specified to their respective lineages despite loss of EZH2. In contrast, loss of EZH2 led to expression of alternate lineage determinants in pro-B but not DN3 cells indicating that EZH2 is required for lineage commitment in B, but not T lymphocyte progenitors.

Project description:This goal of this study was to identify genes that are deregulated in the absence of EZH2 in early lymphocyte progenitors. We examined gene expression by RNA-sequencing in sorted CLPs (Lin-CD117int CD127+ CD135+), pro-B cells (B220+CD19+CD43+), DN3 cells (Lin- CD25+ CD117-), splenic NK cells (Lin-NK1.1+DX5+) and bone marrow ILC2 cells (Lin- Sca1+CD127+) from Ezh2fl/fl Il7racre/+ and Il7racre/+ control mice. Reads were aligned to the mm10 reference genome by Tophat2.1.0. Reads were assigned to genes using the htseq-count tool from HTSeq v 0.6.1 and gene annotations from Ensembl release 78. Differential expression was calculated across 2-3 independent replicates by EdgeR. We found that CLPs, ILC2s, and splenic NK cells maintained their normal transcriptional programs despite loss of EZH2. In contrast, loss of EZH2 caused over 1000 genes to be deregulated in pro-B and DN3 cells indicating that EZH2 is required for transcriptomic stability in adaptive, but not innate lymphocyte progenitors.

Project description:CD1d expression by thymocytes is required to select iNKT cells. When CD1d is expressed only on thymocytes (pLck-CD1d tg mice), iNKT cells are hyperresponsive to antigen stimulation suggesting that, in physiological conditions, these cells undergo functional education mediated by additional CD1d-expressing cells. Here, we investigated the mechanisms of this functional education. We find that peripheral iNKT cells from pLck-CD1d tg mice express significantly less SHP-1, a tyrosine phosphatase negatively regulating TCR signaling, than WT cells. iNKT cells from heterozygous SHP-1-mutated motheaten mice, displaying similar SHP-1 reduction as pLck-CD1d tg iNKT cells, are antigen-hyperresponsive. Restoring normal CD1d expression in pLck-CD1d tg mice normalizes SHP-1 expression and responsiveness of iNKT cells. In WT mice, iNKT cells upregulate SHP-1 and decrease responsiveness upon emigration from thymus to periphery. This depends on contacts with CD1d-expressing DCs. iNKT cell functional education is therefore controlled by DCs via tuning SHP-1 expression level in the periphery.
