Description
Dendritic cells (DCs) are critical regulators of Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cell-homeostasis. Recent reports have suggested that Langerin+ DCs, especially epidermal Langerhans cells (LCs), play an important role in inducing Treg cells. We investigated the roles of Langerin+ DCs in expanding Treg cells after ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure. We found that Treg cells were expanded in UVB-exposed skin in vivo even without Langerin+ DCs including LCs. In the UVB-exposed skin, Langerin- DCs showed a mature phenotype, and the Treg-expansion induced by UVB was significantly abrogated by CD86/CD80 blockade. Thus, maturing Langerin- DCs, rather than LCs and Langerin+ dermal DCs, are the main contributors to UVB-induced Treg expansion in the skin. These results indicate that a new mechanism for UVB-mediated tolerance, which can provide a new concept of treatment using DC-mediated tolerance.

Description
The processes and mechanisms of virus infection fate decisions that are the result of a dynamic virus - immune system interaction with either an efficient effector response and virus elimination or an alleviated immune response and chronic infection are poorly understood. Here we characterized the host response to acute and chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infections by gene coexpression network analysis of time-resolved splenic transcriptomes. We found first, an early attenuation of inflammatory monocyte/macrophage prior to the onset of T cell exhaustion and second, a critical role of the XCL1-XCR1 communication axis during the functional adaptation of the T cell response to the chronic infection state. These findings not only reveal an important feedback mechanism that couples T cell exhaustion with the maintenance of a lower level of effector T cell response but also suggest therapy options to better control virus levels during the chronic infection phase. Overall design: mRNA profiles of spleens (in duplicate, days 0, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9 and 31 post-infection) and macrophages (in triplicate, day 6 post-infection) from C57BL/6 mice infected with 2x10E2 (acute) or 2x10E6 (chronic) pfu of LCMV strain Docile, generated by deep sequencing.

Description
In murine large intestinal lamina propria, CX3CR1high resident Mfs possess anti-inflammatory properties and thereby support intestinal homeostasis. Unlike other tissue-resident Ms, transcription factors that regulate differentiation and function of CX3CR1high Ms in the large intestine are poorly understood. Thus, to identify transcription factors specifically expressed in CX3CR1high Ms among large intestinal lamina propria innate myeloid cells, we comprehensively analyzed the genes expression profiles in CX3CR1high Ms, CX3CR1- CD11b+ CD11c+ cells, CD11b- CD11chigh DCs, and CD11b+CD11c- cells.

Description
To determine the functions of Spi-C in innate immune responses, we investigated the overall gene expression patterns in M-CSF-BMDMFs prepared from Spicflox/flox and Lyz2-cre; Spicflox/flox mice. M-CSF-BMDMFs were stimulated with or without LPS following heme treatment and used for RNA-seq analysis. Overall design: Control and Spic–/– BMDMF pretreated with 40 µM hemin for 18 h were stimulated with (designated 'CNT_4' and 'cKO_4', respectively) or without (designated 'CNT_0' and 'cKO_0', respectively) 100 ng/ml LPS for 4 h.

Description
Hdac3 is an important target of HDAC inhibitors used in the treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma. In order to gain an understanding of Hdac3 function in T cells,we deleted Hdac3 from early mouse thymocytes using LCK-Cre. Hdac3 deletion resulted in a loss of single positive thymocytes due to a defect in positive selection at the double positive (DP) stage of thymocyte development. To better characterize this defect, we sorted the DP1 and DP2 populations to for gene expression profiling. Overall design: Total RNA was extracted from DP1 (GFP+CD4+CD8+CD5loTCRblo) or DP2 (GFP+CD4+CD8+CD5hiTCRbint) thymocytes isolated by FACS from Hdac3+/+ or Hdac3F/F LCK-Cre+ animals. Libraries were constructed from rRNA-depleted total RNA pools to identify altered gene expression in DP populations following Hdac3 deletion.
