AS1 and AS2 encode MYB related protein and AS2-domain containing protein, respectively and may regulate transcription. These genes are involved in the determination of axes of leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana. To know the gene regulation in the leaf development, expression profile among wild-type, as1 and as2 mutants and AS2 overexpression plants were compaired.
Meta-analyses of microarrays of Arabidopsis asymmetric leaves1 (as1), as2 and their modifying mutants reveal a critical role for the ETT pathway in stabilization of adaxial-abaxial patterning and cell division during leaf development.

View SamplesThe capacity of the hematopoietic system to promptly respond to peripheral demands relies on adequate pools of progenitors able to transiently proliferate and differentiate in a regulated manner. However, little is known about factors that may restrain progenitor maturation to maintain their reservoirs. In addition to a profound defect in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal, conditional knockout mice for the Pbx1 proto-oncogene have a significant reduction in lineage-restricted progenitors, including common myeloid progenitors (CMPs) and, to a lesser extent, granulocyte-monocyte progenitors (GMPs).

View SamplesMetazoan development depends on accurate execution of differentiation programs that allow pluripotent stem cells to adopt specific fates. Differentiation is brought about by global changes to chromatin architecture and transcriptional networks, yet whether other regulatory events support cell fate determination is less well understood. Using a human embryonic stem cell model, we identified the vertebrate-specific ubiquitin ligase Cul3KBTBD8 as an essential regulator of neural crest cell formation. Cul3KBTBD8 monoubiquitylates NOLC1 and its paralog TCOF1, whose mutation underlies the developmental disease Treacher Collins Syndrome that is characterized by a loss of cranial neural crest cells. Ubiquitylation of NOLC1 and TCOF1 drives formation of a platform that connects RNA polymerase I with ribosome modification enzymes, thereby altering the translational program of differentiating cells to support the generation of neural crest cells. We conclude that the dynamic regulation of ribosome function is an important feature of cell fate determination.

View SamplesPlants possess highly sensitive mechanisms that monitor environmental stress levels for a dose-dependent fine-tuning of their growth and development. Differences in plant responses to severe and mild abiotic stresses have been recognized. Although many studies have revealed that glutathione can contribute to plant tolerance to various environmental stresses, little is known about the relationship between glutathione and mild abiotic stress, especially the effect of stress-induced altered glutathione levels on the metabolism. Here, we applied a systems biology approach to identify key pathways involved in the gene-to-metabolite networks perturbed by low glutathione content under mild abiotic stress in Arabidopsis thaliana. We used glutathione synthesis mutants (cad2-1 and pad2-1) and plants overexpressing the gene encoding gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase, the first enzyme of the glutathione biosynthetic pathway. The plants were exposed to two mild stress conditionsoxidative stress elicited by methyl viologen (MV) and stress induced by the limited availability of phosphate. We observed that the mutants and transgenic plants showed similar shoot growth as that of the wild-type plants under mild abiotic stress. We then selected the synthesis mutants and performed multi-platform metabolomics and microarray experiments to evaluate the possible effects on the overall metabolome and the transcriptome. To understand the metabolic responses observed under mild abiotic stress, we conducted gene expression profiling by Affymetrix ATH1 GeneChip. pad2-1 and the wild type Col-0 samples were harvested at 18 day-old after germination under two different stresses, MV treatment and limited phosphorus conditions.

CD301b+ MNPs are a subset of MNPs that are found in most peripheral organs including metabolic organs.

View SamplesmDC and pDC exhibit distinct TLR expression pattern and differ in their responses to various TLR ligands. The goal of this study was to identify genes, that were differentally expressed between mDC and pDC as a means to determine how TLR signaling pathways operate. Suprisingly, expression of TLR-assoociated signaling proteins were found to be present at equivalent levels between mDC and pDC, despite differential expression of TLRs, and thus revealing insight into use of adaptor proteins that function as general regulators of TLR signaling pathways in both cell types.
