Late stages of T-cell maturation in the thymus involve NF-κB and tonic type I interferon signaling

ABSTRACT: Positive selection occurs in the thymic cortex, but critical maturation events occur later in the medulla. We defined the precise stage at which T cells acquire competence to proliferate and emigrate. Transcriptome analysis of late gene changes suggested roles for NF-κB and interferon signaling. Mice lacking the IKK kinase TAK1, showed normal positive selection, but a specific block in functional maturation. NF-κB signaling provided protection from TNF, and was required for proliferation and emigration. Alternatively, the interferon signature was independent of NF-κB, and IFNαR deficient thymocytes showed reduced STAT1 levels and phenotypic abnormality, but were competent to proliferate. Thus, both NF-κB and tonic IFN signals are involved in the final maturation of thymocytes into naïve T cells.

Late stages of T-cell maturation in the thymus involve NF-ÎºB and tonic type I interferon signaling

Project description:Positive selection occurs in the thymic cortex, but critical maturation events occur later in the medulla. We defined the precise stage at which T cells acquire competence to proliferate and emigrate. Transcriptome analysis of late gene changes suggested roles for NF-ÎºB and interferon signaling. Mice lacking the IKK kinase TAK1, showed normal positive selection, but a specific block in functional maturation. NF-ÎºB signaling provided protection from TNF, and was required for proliferation and emigration. Alternatively, the interferon signature was independent of NF-ÎºB, and IFNÎ±R deficient thymocytes showed reduced STAT1 levels and phenotypic abnormality, but were competent to proliferate. Thus, both NF-ÎºB and tonic IFN signals are involved in the final maturation of thymocytes into naÃ¯ve T cells. Gene expression profile was performed on cells isolated from mouse thymus, including Pre-DP, Post-DP, SM&M1, M2 and Tak1-deficient SM&M1 cells.

Role of splicing factor SRSF1 during the late stages of T cell maturation in the thymus

Project description:In thymus, the post-selection single positive thymocytes undergo further intrathymic maturation including down-regulation of CD69 and CD24, up-regulation of Qa-2, through which single positive thymocytes became equipped with emigration competency, then emigrate to periphery. Here we find that RNA binding protein Srsf1 is essential for the final maturation and survival of thymocytes.

Role of AhR in thymocyte emigration in vivo

Project description:Over-activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor by TCDD in mice leads among other phenotypes to a severe thymic atrophy accompanied by immunosuppression. TCDD causes a block in thymocyte maturation and a preferential emigration of immature CD4-CD8- DN thymocytes (recent thymic emigrants) into the periphery. As part of this study gene expression profiles from DN thymocytes and thymic emigrants were generated from TCDD and solvent control mice Keywords: Affymetrix, TCDD, CD4-CD8- thymocytes, Thymus involution, thymic emigration, Ahr Female, 6-8 week old C57BL6 mice were i.p. injected with 10 M-BM-5g/kg TCDD. After 5 days mice were anesthezised and FITC injected into their thymi. after 24h mice were sacrificed and CD4-CD8-FITC+ cells isolated from thymus (thymocytes) and spleen (recent thymus emigrants).

Gene expression data from murine heart ventricles E12.5 with and without cardiomyocyte-specific expression of constitutively active IKK2

Project description:The transcription factor NF-κB has been associated with a range of pathological conditions of the heart, mainly based on its function as a master regulator of inflammation and pro-survival factor. Here, we addressed the question what effects activation of NF-κB can have during murine heart development. We expressed a constitutively active (CA) mutant of IKK2, the kinase activating canonical NF-κB signaling, specifically in cardiomyocytes under the control of the α-myosin heavy chain promoter. Expression of IKK2-CA resulted in embryonic lethality around E13. Embryos showed defects in compact zone formation and the contractile apparatus, and overall were characterized by widespread inflammation with infiltration of myeloid cells. Gene expression analysis at E12.5 suggested an interferon type I signature, with increased expression of interferon regulatory factors.

mRNA expression of Qa2+ and Qa2- CD4+ thymocytes isolated from WT and miR-142-/- mice

Project description:Developing CD4+ T-cells in the thymus mature from CD69+Qa2- cells to CD69-Qa2+ T-cells. This maturation is accombanied by increased expression of CD62L and S1PR1 in Qa2+ cells, which allows mature T-cells to emigrate from the thymus to the periphery. However, miR-142-/- mice are characterized by an altered thymocytes homeostasis, characterized by reduced CD62L protein levels on their cell surface. To characterize the underlying molecular mechanisms, which lead to reduced CD62L expression in miR-142-/- CD4+ thymocytes, we investigated the mRNA levels in immature Qa2- as well as mature Qa2+ thymocytes isolated ex vivo from WT and miR-142 deficient Bl6 mice.

Proinflammatory Responses of Human Airway Cells to Ricin Involve Stress-Activated Protein Kinases and NF-κB

Project description:Ricin is a potential bioweapon because of its toxicity, availability, and ease of production. When delivered to the lungs, ricin causes severe pulmonary damage with symptoms that are similar to those observed in acute lung injury and adult respiratory distress syndrome. The airway epithelium plays an important role in the pathogenesis of many lung diseases, but its role in ricin intoxication has not been elucidated. Exposure of cultured primary human airway epithelial cells to ricin resulted in the activation of stress-activated protein kinases (SAPKs) and NF-κB and in the increased expression of multiple proinflammatory molecules. Among the genes upregulated by ricin and identified by microarray analysis were those associated with transcription, nucleosome assembly, inflammation, and response to stress. Sequence analysis of the promoters of these genes identified NF-κB as one of the transcription factors whose binding sites were over-represented. Although airway cells secrete TNF-α in response to ricin, blocking TNF-α did not prevent ricin-induced activation of NF-κB. Inhibition of p38 MAPK by a chemical inhibitor and NF-κB by short interfering RNA resulted in a marked reduction in the expression of proinflammatory genes, demonstrating the importance of these two pathways in ricin intoxication. Therefore, the p38 MAPK and NF-κB pathways are potential therapeutic targets for reducing the inflammatory consequences of ricin poisoning. Keywords: Comparative genomic hybridization

An NF-κB/IRF1 axis programs cDC1 to drive antitumor immunity II

Project description:functions of cDC1s are poorly understood. We mapped the molecular pathways regulating intratumoral cDC1 maturation using single cell RNA sequencing. We identified NF-κB and IFN pathways as being highly enriched in a subset of functionally mature cDC1s. The specific targeting of NF-κB or IFN pathways in cDC1s prevented the recruitment and activation of CD8+ T cells and the control of tumor growth. We identified an NF-κB-dependent IFN-γ-regulated gene network in cDC1s, including cytokines and chemokines specialized in the recruitment and activation of cytotoxic T cells. We used single cell transcriptomes to map the trajectory of intra-tumoral cDC1 maturation which revealed the dynamic reprogramming of tumor-infiltrating cDC1s by NF-κB and IFN signaling pathways. This maturation process was perturbed by specific inactivation of either NF-κB or IRF1 in cDC1s, resulting in impaired expression of IFN-γ-responsive genes and consequently a failure to efficiently recruit and activate anti-tumoral CD8+ T cells. Finally, we demonstrate the relevance of these findings to cancer patients, showing that activation of the NF-κB/IRF1 axis in association with cDC1s is linked with improved clinical outcome. The NF-κB/IRF1 axis in cDC1s may therefore represent an important focal point for the development new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to improve cancer immunotherapy.

The role of MAGI1 (membrane-associated guanylate kinase with inverted domain structure-1) in regulating disturbed flow-induced changes of gene expression

Project description:To understand the function of MAGI1 in ECs, we isolated total RNAs from human umblical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) transfected with control or Magi1 siRNA and transcriptionally profiled them. Ingenuity pathway Analysis (IPA) demonstrated activation of antiviral responses, including interferon signaling, without affecting NF-κB expression and inhibition of ER stress gene expression induced by the reduction of MAGI1 expression. Because activation of interferon signaling tends to increase NF-κB activation, the finding that depletion of MAGI1 promotes antiviral responses without increasing NF-κB activation is unique, suggesting that MAGI1 is an incomparable molecular switch for pro-viral and pro-inflammatory responses.
