Description
We identified the ubiquitin ligase Huwe1 as a crucial regulator of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) functions. We generated Huwe1 conditional knock-out mice and discovered that the loss of this ligase causes an increased proliferation and stem cell exhaustion, together with a decreased lymphoid specification in vivo. We observed that the ubiquitin ligase Huwe1 is controlling the expression of N-myc at the level of the most immature stem and progenitor hematopoietic populations, mediating the described effects. Overall design: High-troughput RNA-sequencing of sorted HSC (Lin-Sca+Kit+CD48-CD150+) from wild type or Huwe1 conditional knockout mice (constitutively deleted with Vav-Cre recombinase or inducibly deleted with Mx1-Cre)

Description
FBXW7 modulates stress response by post-translational modification of HSF1 HSF1 orchestrates the heat-shock response upon exposure to heat stress and activates a transcriptional program vital for cancer cells. Genes positively regulated by HSF1 show increeased expression during heat shock while their expression is reduced during recovery. Genes negatively regulated by HSF1 show the opposite pattern. In this study we utilized the HCT116 FBXW7 KO colon cell line and its wild type counterpart to monitor gene expression changes during heat shock (42oC, 1 hour) and recovery (37oC for 2 hours post heat shock) using RNA sequencing. These results revealed that the heat-shock response pathway is prolonged in cells deficient for FBXW7. Overall design: Whole RNA was extracted from 1 million HCT116 WT or FBXW7KO cells using the RNAeasy kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Poly-A+ (magnetic oligodT-containing beads (Invitrogen)) or Ribominus RNA was used for library preparation. cDNA preparation and strand-specific library construction was performed using the dUTP method. Libraries were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 2000 using 50bp single-read method. Differential gene expression analysis was performed for each matched recovery versus heat-shock pairs, separately in each biological replicate and cell line (WT or KO). Two types of comparisons were tested: (a) WT recovery vs WT heat shock, (b) FBXW7 KO recovery vs heat shock.

Description
Rosiglitazone (Rosi), a member of the thiazolidinedione class of drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes, activates the adipocyte-specific transcription factor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARg). This activation causes bone loss in animals and humans, at least in part due to suppression of osteoblast differentiation from marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). In order to identify mechanisms by which PPARg2 suppresses osteoblastogenesis and promotes adipogenesis in MSC, we have analyzed the PPARg2 transcriptome in response to Rosi. A total of 4,252 transcriptional changes resulted when Rosi (1 uM) was applied to the U-33 marrow stromal cell line, stably transfected with PPARg2 (U-33/g2), as compared to non-induced U-33/g2 cells. Differences between U-33/g2 and U-33 cells stably transfected with empty vector (U-33/c) comprised 7,928 transcriptional changes, independent of Rosi. Cell type-, time- and treatment-specific gene clustering uncovered distinct patterns of PPARg2 transcriptional control of MSC lineage commitment. The earliest changes accompanying Rosi activation of PPARg2 included adjustments in morphogenesis, Wnt signaling, and immune responses, as well as sustained induction of lipid metabolism. Expression signatures influenced by longer exposure to Rosi provided evidence for distinct mechanisms governing the repression of osteogenesis and stimulation of adipogenesis. Our results suggest interactions that could lead to the identification of a master regulatory scheme controlling osteoblast differentiation.

Description
Appropriate nutrition during early development is essential for optimal bone mass accretion; however, linkage between early nutrition, childhood bone mass and prevention of bone loss later in life has not been extensively studied. In this report, we have demonstrated several fundamental issues in the field. 1) A significant prevention of ovariectomy (OVX) -induced bone loss from adult rats can occur with only 14 days consumption of a blueberry-containing diet immediately prior to puberty. 2) The molecular mechanisms underlying these effects involve increased myosin production and preserved a shuttle for transcription factors such as Runx2 from cytoplasm to nucleolus which stimulates osteoblast differentiation and reduces mesenchymal stromal cell senescence. 3) The effects of blueberry diet on preserving fidelity of osteoblast differentiation also overcome reduced osteoblast differentiation and activity due to OVX-induced degradation of collagen matrix.

Description
Blockades in hematopoiesis deprive the host of vital blood cells and frequently cause leukemia. Here we show that inactivation of mTORC1 in hematopoietic stem cells by deletion of Raptor unmasked a cell type, hereby called myelolymphoblastic innate cell (MLIC) based on unique gene expression signature, cell surface markers, morphology and functions. The MLICs are CD11b(+)Gr-1(-)B7-H1(high)F4/80(low) and have morphology of lymphoblasts with active Ig loci but no gene rearrangement. Within weeks of Raptor deletion, the MLICs account for nearly 50% of bone marrow cells and are found throughout both the lymphoid and non-lymphoid organs. Nevertheless, the MLICs are not malignant as they undergo very limited proliferation in vivo. Importantly, the MLICs broadly express pattern-recognition receptors and produce large amounts of inflammatory cytokines in response to all TLR ligands tested, rendering the host highly susceptible to pathogen-associated molecular patterns. Our data suggest that hematopoietic cell-intrinsic mTORC1 prevents development of self-destructive innate immune attack by suppressing generation of MLICs. Overall design: Raptor F/F mice were crossed with Mx1-Cre mice for more than 2 generations to get Raptor F/F (Ctrl) and Raptor F/F, Mx1-Cre (cKO) mice. Sex-matched 6-8 weeks old Ctrl mice and cKO mice were treated with polyinosinic: polycytidylic acid (pIpC) every other day for consecutive 7 times by intra-peritoneal (i.p.) injection to induce Cre expression and Raptor deletion in mouse hematopoietic system. Raptor mice were sacrificed 2-3 weeks after the last injection of pIpC. Whole BM cells from Raptor Ctrl mice (n=3) and FACS-sorted CD11b(+)Gr-1(-) BM MLICs from Raptor cKO mice (n=3) were used for RNA isolation and subsequent cDNA libraries construction. mRNA profiles of Ctrl-WBM and cKO-MLIC were examined by RNA-sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 2000.

Description
Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is an epigenome-modifying enzyme that is required for normal mouse development and tissue-specific functions. In vitro, HDAC3 protein itself has minimal enzyme activity, but gains its histone deacetylation function from stable association with the conserved deacetylase activation domain (DAD) contained in nuclear receptor corepressors NCOR1 and SMRT. Here we show that HDAC3 enzyme activity is undetectable in mice bearing point mutations in the DAD of both NCOR1 and SMRT (NS-DADm), despite normal levels of HDAC3 protein. Local histone acetylation is increased, and genomic HDAC3 recruitment is reduced though not abrogated. Remarkably, the NS-DADm mice are born and live to adulthood, whereas genetic deletion of HDAC3 is embryonic lethal. These findings demonstrate that nuclear receptor corepressors are required for HDAC3 enzyme activity in vivo, and suggest that a deacetylase-independent function of HDAC3 may be required for life.
