Project description:In mammals body temperature fluctuates diurnally around a mean value of 36-37°C. Despite the small differences between minimal and maximal values, body temperature rhythms can drive robust cycles in gene expression in cultured cells and, likely, in, animals. Here we studied the mechanisms responsible for the temperature-dependent expression of Cold- Inducible RNA-Binding Protein (CIRBP). In NIH3T3 fibroblasts exposed to simulated mouse body temperature cycles Cirbp mRNA oscillates about 3-fold in abundance, as it does in mouse liver. This daily mRNA accumulation cycle is directly controlled by temperature oscillations and does not depend on the cells’ circadian clocks. Here, we show that the temperature-dependent accumulation of Cirbp mRNA is controlled primarily by the regulation of splicing efficiency, defined as the fraction of Cirbp pre-mRNA processed into mature mRNA. As revealed by genome-wide “approach-to-steady-kinetics”, this posttranscriptional mechanism is wide-spread in the temperature-dependent control of gene expression.

Cultured NIH3T3 cells seeded and kept at 37C degree for 4 hours before being switched to 33C and 38C. After 16 hours of incubation the temperature was shifted to 38C and 33C, respectively. Sample were then taken at 0, 1, 3, 6 and 9 hour after the temperature shift. Paired-end, strand-specific, total RNA-seq was performed over the samples at the respective time points using the Illumina HiSeq2500 platform.

Project description:Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a pattern recognition receptor that, upon ligation by microbial molecules, interacts with other proteins to initiate pro-inflammatory responses by the cell. Statins (hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors), drugs widely prescribed to reduce hypercholesterolemia, are reported to have both pro- and anti-inflammatory effects upon cells. Some of these responses are presumed to be driven by effects on signaling proteins at the plasma membrane, but the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. We reasoned that profiling the effect of statins on the repertoire of TLR2-interacting proteins might provide novel insights into the mechanisms by which statins impact inflammation. In order to study the TLR2 interactome, we designed a co-immunoprecipitation (IP)-based cross-linking proteomics study. A hemagglutinin (HA)-tagged-TLR2 transfected HEK293 cell line was utilized to precipitate the TLR2 interactome upon cell exposure to the TLR2 agonist Pam3CSK4 and simvastatin, singly and in combination. To stabilize protein interactors, we utilized two different chemical cross-linkers with different spacer chain lengths. Proteomic analysis revealed important combinatorial effects of simvastatin and Pam3CSK4 on the TLR2 interactome. After stringent data filtering, we identified alpha-centractin (ACTR1A), an actin-related protein and subunit of the dynactin complex, as a potential interactor of TLR2. The interaction was validated using biochemical methods. RNA interference studies revealed an important role for ACTR1A in induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Taken together, we report that statins remodel the TLR2 interactome, and we identify ACTR1A, a part of the dynactin complex, as a novel regulator of TLR2-mediated immune signaling pathways.

Project description:In the present study, RNA-seq were performed To identify clinical relevance of PLAUR, a putative Serpin E1 receptor, in cutaneous itch signaling and crosstalk pathways with other critical itch modulators.mRNA profiles were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using MGISEQ-2000. Our experiment showed Serpin E1-treatment further led to a marked upregulation of TLR2 transcript in mDRG neurons, along with enhanced transcription of cosignaling proteins belonging to pro-inflammatory signaling pathways including NF-κB signaling proteins. We next investigated the consequence of TLR2 activation in mTGNs using the TLR agonists, Pam3CSK4 (TLR1/2 agonist), FSL-1 (TLR2/6 agonist), or vehicle. Among these transcripts, TLR2 was found upregulated strongest by both TLR2 agonists suggesting a selfenhancing feedback loop of TLR2 activation.The PLAUR-TLR2 axis promotes cutaneous inflammation and itch, both feeding into an aggravation of AD. This finding might help us to better understand the skin-nerve communication in itch circuits.

Project description:We employed PAR-CLIP, a recently developed method based on RNA-protein crosslinking, to identify Cirbp and Rbm3 binding sites at transcriptome-level. Genome-wide RNA-seq analysis indicated that cold temperature leads to extensive 3M-bM-^@M-^YUTR lengthening whereas the loss of Cirbp or Rbm3 resulted in 3M-bM-^@M-^YUTR shortening. Combining with PAR-CLIP results, we found that these two RBPs repress the polyadenylation adjacent to their binding sites. Examination of the binding sites of Cirbp and Rbm3 by PAR-CLIP and their influence on the transcriptome by RNA-seq. PARCLIP was performed as in Hafner et al. 2010 Cell 141, 129M-bM-^@M-^S141, with MEFs cell lines stably expressing FLAG-tagged Cirbp and Rbm3. We used 4-thiouridine (4SU) to enhance the crosslink. For RNA-seq, polyadenylated RNA from the mock-transfected cells at 37M-BM-0C or 32M-BM-0C with two replicates, siCirbp-1, siCirbp-2, siRbm3-1 and siRbm3-2 MEFs at 37M-BM-0C were sequenced on Solexa GAII using 76bp single-end kits according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions.

Project description:The interaction between monocytes and endothelial cells in inflammation is central to chemoattraction, adhesion, and transendothelial migration. Key players such as selectins and their ligands, integrins and other adhesion molecules and their function in these processes are well studied. Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), expressed on monocytes, is critical for sensing invading pathogens and initiating a rapid and effective immune response. However, the extended role of TLR2 in monocyte adhesion and migration has only been partially elucidated. To address this question, we performed several functional cell-based assays using monocyte-like wild type (WT), TLR2-knock-out (KO) and, TLR2-knock-in (KI) THP-1 cells. We found that TLR2 promotes faster and stronger adhesion of monocytes to the endothelium and a more intense endothelial barrier disruption after endothelial activation. In addition, we performed quantitative mass-spectrometry, STRING protein analysis, and RT-qPCR, which revealed the association of TLR2 with specific integrins, but also uncovered novel proteins affected by TLR2. In conclusion, we could show that unstimulated TLR2 affects cell adhesion, endothelial barrier disruption, migration, and actin polymerization.

Project description:The activation of TLR-MyD88 (Toll like receptor- Myeloid differentiation factor 88) signaling within T cells functions as a potent costimulatory signal that boosts antitumor and antiviral responses. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the costimulatory processes are poorly understood. We compared microarray gene analysis data between TLR1-TLR2 stimulated and unstimulated T cell receptor transgenic ‘pmel’ and MyD88-/-pmel CD8+ T cells and identified changes in the expression levels of several TNF family members. In particular, TLR-stimulation increased 4-1BB levels in pmel but not in MyD88-/-pmel T cells. A link between 4-1BB and TLR1-TLR2 signaling in CD8+ T cells was highlighted by in fact that 4-1BB-/- T cells exhibited suboptimal responses to TLR1-TLR2 agonist, but responded normally to CD28 or OX40 costimulation. Moreover, blocking 4-1BB signaling with antibodies also hindered the costimulatory effects of the TLR1-TLR2 agonist. The elevated levels of 4-1BB transcripts in TLR1-TLR2–stimulated cells were not due to increased mRNA stability nor increased histone activation but instead were associated with increased binding of p65 and c-Jun to two distinct 4-1BB promoter sites. Combining TLR1-TLR2 ligand with an agonistic anti-4-1BB antibody enhanced the antitumor activity in mice with established melanoma tumors. These studies reveal that the costimulatory effects of TLR1-TLR2 signaling in CD8+ T cells are in part mediated by 4-1BB and are important for mounting an effective antitumor immune response.
