Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
In seedlings, the induction of shade avoidance syndrome (SAS) involves a rapid up-regulation for known shade marker genes and subsequently activates an interacting network of various hormones that will eventually lead to cell elongation. We found that the B-box protein AtBBX24 have positive effects on the SAS (positive regulators). Global expression analysis of col and bbx24 seedlings reveals that a large number of genes involved in hormonal signaling pathways are positively regulated by BBX24 in response to simulated shade.

Description
Parkinsons disease (PD) progresses relentlessly and affects five million people worldwide. Laboratory tests for PD are critically needed for developing treatments designed to slow or prevent progression of the disease. We performed a transcriptome-wide scan in 105 individuals to interrogate the molecular processes perturbed in cellular blood of patients with early-stage PD. The molecular marker here identified is strongly associated with risk of PD in 66 samples of the training set (third tertile cross-validated odds ratio of 5.7 {P for trend 0.005}). It is further validated in 39 independent test samples (third tertile odds ratio of 5.1 {P for trend 0.04}). The genes differentially expressed in patients with PD, or Alzheimers or progressive supranuclear palsy offer unique insights into disease-linked processes detectable in peripheral blood. Combining gene expression scans in blood and linked clinical data will facilitate the rapid characterization of candidate biomarkers as demonstrated here with respect to PD.

Description
AbstractFollicular helper T (Tfh) cells are crucial for germinal center (GC) formation and humoral adaptive immunity. Mechanisms underlying Tfh cell differentiation in peripheral and mucosal lymphoid organs are incompletely understood. We report here that mTOR kinase complexes 1 and 2 (mTORC1 and mTORC2) are essential for Tfh cell differentiation and GC reaction under steady state and after antigen immunization and viral infection. Loss of mTORC1 and mTORC2 in T cells exerted distinct effects on Tfh cell signature gene expression, whereas increased mTOR activity promoted Tfh responses. Deficiency of mTORC2 impaired CD4+ T cell accumulation and IgA production, and aberrantly induced Foxo1 transcription factor. Mechanistically, the costimulatory molecule ICOS activated mTORC1 and mTORC2 to drive glycolysis and lipogenesis, and Glut1-mediated glucose metabolism promoted Tfh cell responses. Altogether, mTOR acts as a central node in Tfh cells to link immune signals to glucose metabolism and transcriptional activity.

Description
Effector (Teff) and regulatory (Treg) CD4 T cells undergo metabolic reprogramming to support proliferation and immune function. While Phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mTORC1 signaling induces the glucose transporter Glut1 and aerobic glycolysis for Teff proliferation and inflammatory function, mechanisms that regulate Treg metabolism and function remain unclear. We show that TLR signals that promote Treg proliferation increase Glut1, PI3K/Akt/mTORC1 signaling, and glycolysis. However, TLR-induced mTORC1 signaling also impaired Treg suppressive capacity. Conversely, FoxP3 opposed PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling to reduce glycolysis and anabolic metabolism while increasing oxidative and catabolic metabolism. Importantly, Glut1 expression was sufficient to increase Treg numbers but reduced suppressive capacity and FoxP3 expression. Thus, inflammatory signals and FoxP3 balance mTORC1 signaling and glucose metabolism to control Treg proliferation and suppressive function. Overall design: RNAseq of induced Glut1 transgenic and control Treg

Description
Sel1L is an adaptor protein for the E3 ligase Hrd1 involved in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD). Its physiological importance in mammalian ERAD, however, remains to be established. Here, using the inducible Sel1L knockout mouse and cell models, we provide the first in vivo evidence that Sel1L is indispensable for Hrd1 stability, ER homeostasis and survival. Acute loss of Sel1L leads to premature death in adult mice within 3 weeks with profound pancreatic atrophy. Contrary to current belief, our data show that mammalian Sel1L is required for Hrd1 stability and ERAD function both in vitro and in vivo. Sel1L deficiency disturbs ER homeostasis, activates ER stress, attenuates translation and promotes cell death. Serendipitously, using biochemical approach coupled with mass spectrometry, we found that Sel1L deficiency causes the aggregation of both small and large ribosomal subunits. Thus, Sel1L is an indispensable component of mammalian ERAD and ER homeostasis, which is essential for protein translation, pancreatic function, cellular and organismal survival.

Description
To identify gene expression changes associated with treatment of EV that carry high levels of miR-105 (from MDA-MB-231 and MCF10A/miR-105 cells) in human breast tumor derived CAF, we analyzed RNA isolated from PBS- or EV-treated CAF. Gene expression in CAF treated with EV from MDA-MB-231 or MCF10A/miR-105 cells was compared to cells treated with PBS or EV from MCF10A cells, both of which served as controls in this experiment. Overall design: RNA was extracted from PBS- and EV-treated CAF, and subjected to library construction and RNA sequencing.

Description
To identify gene expression changes associated with overexpression of miR-105 or MYC in MCF10A non-cancerous human mammary epithelial cells, we analyzed RNA isolated from engineered MCF10A cell lines that stably express empty vector, GFP, miR-105, or MYC by RNA-seq. Gene expression in cells overexpressing miR-105 or MYC was compared to cells expressing the empty vector or GFP, both of which served as controls in this experiment. Overall design: RNA was extracted from MCF10A cells stably expressing pBabe vector, pBabe-GFP, pBabe-miR-105, or pBabe-MYC; RNA was then subjected to library construction and RNA sequencing.
