View SamplesPRDM16 is a 140 kDa transcriptional coregulatory protein. PRDM16 has been shown to function as a bi-directional switch in brown fat cell fate by stimulating the development of brown fat cells from myf-5 positive myoblastic precursors.

View SamplesUbiquilins are a family of proteins involved in proteasomal degradation of mislocalized membrane proteins. Here, Greer et al. demonstrate that Ubqln1 is required for BCR-driven B cell proliferation through maintenance of protein synthesis following stimulation. In the absence of Ubqln1, mitochondrial proteins accumulate in the cytosol, which may account for the observed proteostasis. BCR stimulation of murine B cells induced a long-lasting mitochondrial depolarization that did not occur in response to LPS. We hypothesize that in the absence of Ubqln1, mitochondrial depolarization leads to an accumulation of mitochondrial membrane proteins in the cytosol, which leads to translational inhibition and a cell cycle block. Overall design: For RNASeq, cells were stimulated in triplicate in 2*10e6 cells/mL for 4 hours with either 10 µg/mL anti-IgM F(ab)2 or 20 µg/mL LPS, or no stimulation. There were 18 total samples, 9 Knockout samples, 9 WT samples, 3 biological replicates per treatment group: no stimulation, 10 ug/mL a-Igm, 20 ug/mL LPS.

View SamplesWe examined the transcriptional function of cyclin D1 in mouse development using two approaches. First, we queried association of cyclin D1 with the genome of E14.5 mouse embryos using ChIP-on-chip approach. We observed binding of cyclin D1 to several promoter regions. Second, we compared gene expression profiles between wild-type and cyclin D1-null retinas. We observed several transcripts with altered levels in cyclin D1-null organs.

View SamplesMolecular mechanisms underlying sarcopenia, the age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, remain unclear. To identify molecular changes that correlated best with sarcopenia and might contribute to its pathogenesis, we determined global gene expression profiles in muscles of rats aged 6, 12, 18, 21, 24, and 27 months. These rats exhibit sarcopenia beginning at 21 months. Correlation of the gene expression versus muscle mass or age changes, and functional annotation analysis identified gene signatures of sarcopenia distinct from gene signatures of aging. Specifically, mitochondrial energy metabolism (e.g., tricarboxylic acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation) pathway genes were the most downregulated and most significantly correlated with sarcopenia. Also, perturbed were genes/pathways associated with neuromuscular junction patency (providing molecular evidence of sarcopenia-related functional denervation and neuromuscular junction remodeling), protein degradation, and inflammation. Proteomic analysis of samples at 6, 18, and 27 months confirmed the depletion of mitochondrial energy metabolism proteins and neuromuscular junction proteins. Together, these findings suggest that therapeutic approaches that simultaneously stimulate mitochondrogenesis and reduce muscle proteolysis and inflammation have potential for treating sarcopenia.

View SamplesAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a paralytic degenerative disease of the nervous system. In the SOD1 mouse model of ALS we found loss of the molecular and functional microglia signature associated with pronounced expression of miR-155 in SOD1 mice. We also found increased expression of miR-155 in the spinal cord of ALS subjects. Genetic ablation of miR-155 increased survival in SOD1 mice and reversed the abnormal microglial and monocyte molecular signature. In addition, dysregulated proteins in the spinal cord of SOD1 mice that we identified in human ALS spinal cords and CSF were restored in SOD1G93A/miR155-/- mice. Treatment of SOD1 mice with anti-miR-155 SOD1 mice injected systemically or into the cerebrospinal fluid prolonged survival and restored the microglial unique genetic and microRNA profiles. Our findings provide a new avenue for immune based therapy of ALS by targeting miR-155. Overall design: Total RNA was isolated from whole lumbar spinal cord homogenate from healthy control donors without known neurologic diseases and sporadic and familial ALS.
Targeting miR-155 restores abnormal microglia and attenuates disease in SOD1 mice.
