Project description:We analyzed the transcriptional profile of small-intestinal lamina propria (SI-LP) CD4+ T cells isolated from germ-free and mice monocolonized with Bifidobacterium adolescentis, SFB, and Nexabiotic (a 23-strain, Th17-inducing, probiotic mix).
Project description:In chicken DT40 cells, there are six linker histone H1 variants and 12 of coding genes. We have previously reported of 11 out of 12 H1 knock out DT40 cells (Takami et al., Genes to Cell 1997 [PMID:9491804]) but complete H1 null DT40 cells could not established, so far. We identified one of the H1 variant, H1R was involved in genomic instabilities (Hashimoto et al., DNA repair (2007) [17613284]), so we re-introduced floxed H1R-eGFP and mer-cre-mer into 11 out of 12 H1 knock out DT40 cells. Then we targeted last enedogenous H1, we successfully established conditional H1 KO cells (K11). Next we treated with tamoxifen to loop out floxed H1R-eGFP, and cloning H1 completely null cells (K11-5, and K11-7). We analysis those gene expression pattern in wild-type, K11, and K11-5 cells Experiment Overall Design: Apoptosis is induced in H1 null cells, so we inhibit apoptosis with pan-caspase inhibitor, Z-VAD-FMK and extract RNAs.

Project description:To identify the putative genes involved in theacrine biosynthesis in tea plant, we carried out comparative transcriptome analysis of Kucha (K6 and K11) and conventional varieties (YH 9 and QX 1).
Project description:Marek’s disease virus 1 (MDV-1), an oncogenic -herpesvirus that induces T-cell lymphomas in chickens, serves as model system to study transformation by lymphotropic herpesviruses. Like the oncogenic human -herpesviruses Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), MDV-1 encodes several viral microRNAs (miRNAs). One MDV-1 miRNA, miR-M4, shares the same “seed” targeting sequence with both a KSHV miRNA, miR-K11, and cellular miR-155. Importantly, miR-M4 plays a critical role in T-cell transformation by MDV-1, while miR-K11 and cellular miR-155 are thought to play key roles in B-cell transformation by KSHV and EBV, respectively. Here, we present an analysis of the mRNAs targeted by viral miRNAs expressed in the chicken T-cell line MSB1, which is naturally coinfected with MDV-1 and the related nonpathogenic virus MDV-2. Our analysis identified>1,000 endogenous mRNAs targeted by miRNAs encoded by each virus, many of which are targeted by both MDV-1 and MDV-2 miRNAs. We present a functional analysis of an MDV-1 gene, RLORF8, targeted by four MDV-1 miRNAs and a cellular gene, encoding interleukin-18 (IL-18) and targeted by both MDV-1 and MDV-2 miRNAs, and show that ectopic expression of either protein in a form resistant to miRNA inhibition results in inhibition of cell proliferation. Finally, we present a restricted list of 9 genes targeted by not only MDV-1 miR-M4 but also KSHV miR-K11 and human miR-155. Given the critical role played by miR-155 seed family members in lymphomagenesis in humans and chickens, these mRNA targets may contain genes whose inhibition plays a conserved role in herpesvirus transformation.
