Description
Roquin proteins are required to preclude spontaneous T cell activation and aberrant T follicular helper (Tfh) or T helper 17 (Th17) differentiation. Here, we show that deletion of Roquin encoding alleles in regulatory T cells (Tregs) also caused the activation of conventional T cells. These Tregs exhibited a follicular Treg phenotype, CD25 downregulation and could not protect from colitis. Mechanistically, Roquin was required for full expression and activity of Pten and Foxo1, two essential signaling molecules in Tregs and effector T cells. Roquin upregulated Pten by interfering with miR-17~92 binding to an overlapping cis-element in the Pten 3' UTR and downregulated the Foxo1-specific E3 ubiquitin ligase Itch. Loss of Roquin enhanced mTOR signaling and global protein synthesis, while inhibition of PI3K or mTOR in Roquin-deficient CD4+ T cells corrected increased Tfh and Th17 differentiation. Thereby, the control of PI3K-mTOR signaling by Roquin prevents autoimmunity through T cell-intrinsic and Treg-mediated regulation. Overall design: Examination of transcriptome and ribosome occupancy in MEF and T cells upon Roquin expression and inhibition. Examination of Roquin binding sites in the mouse transcriptome of MEF cells. Examination of transcriptome in CD25+ and CD25- Treg cells from WT and Roquin DKO mice.

Description
Cohesin acetylation by Eco1 during DNA replication establishes sister chromatid cohesion. We show that acetylation makes cohesin resistant to Wapl activity from S-phase until mitosis. Wapl turns out to be a key regulator of cohesin dynamics on chromosomes by controling cohesin maintenance following its establishment in S-phase and its role in chromosome condensation.

Description
Histone acetylation and other modifications of the chromatin are important regulators of gene expression and, consequently, may contribute to drug-induced behaviors and neuroplasticity. Previous studies have shown that a reduction on histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity results on the enhancement of some psychostimulant-induced behaviors. In the present study, we extend those seminal findings by showing that the administration of the HDAC inhibitor sodium butyrate enhances morphine-induced locomotor sensitization and conditioned place preference. In contrast, this compound has no effects on the development of morphine tolerance and dependence. Similar effects were observed for cocaine and ethanol-induced behaviors. These behavioral changes were accompanied by a selective boosting of a component of the transcriptional program activated by chronic morphine administration that included circadian clock genes and other genes relevant in addictive behavior. Our results support an specific role for histone acetylation and the epigenetic modulation of transcription at a reduced number of biologically relevant loci on non-homeostatic, long lasting, drug-induced behavioral plasticity. To further investigate the molecular bases of sodium butyrate action on long-lasting behavioral responses to morphine, we screened for potential substrates of their interaction by performing a genome-wide comparison of the striatal transcriptome after chronic administration of morphine in the absence or presence of sodium butyrate.

Description
Methods of reprogramming somatic cells to an induced pluripotent state (iPSC) have enabled the direct modeling of human disease and ultimately promise to revolutionize regenerative medicine. iPSCs offer an invaluable source of patient-specific pluripotent stem cells for disease modeling, drug screening, toxicology tests and importantly for regenerative medicine, and already have been employed to unmask novel insights into human diseases. While iPSCs can be consistently generated through overexpression of the four Yamanaka Factors OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC (OSKM), reprogrammed cells present worrisome differences with embryonic stem cells in transcriptional and epigenetic profiles, as well as developmental potential and difficulties in cell culturing. A thorough mechanistic understanding of the reprogramming process is critical to overcoming these barriers to the clinical use of iPSC. We have recently published a novel factor combination based on molecules specifically enriched in the metaphase II human oocyte. We have shown that just the overexpression of histone-remodeling chaperone ASF1A and OCT4 in hADFs previously exposed to the oocyte-specific paracrine growth factor GDF9 can reprogram hADFs into pluripotent cells (AO9-iPSCs). Our study contributes to the understanding of the molecular pathways governing somatic cell reprogramming. Here we want to go deeper in the reprogramming mechanisms by understanding the importance of somatic cell origin, and analyzing (and establishing comparison with) the transcriptional and epigenetic characteristics of AO9-iPSCs. As the intrinsic histone chaperone activity of ASF1A and our data indicate, these cells could be closer to the embryonic pluripotent state, with less epigenetic memory, better culture properties and differentiation potential.
