Description
IL-4d2 is a natural splice variant of IL-4 which lacks the region encoded by the second exon. Numerous recent reports suggested that the expression levels of IL-4d2 change in various diseases, especially those with pulmonary involvement, but the effects of IL-4d2 on the lungs in vivo have never been studied. Replication-deficient adenovirus-mediated gene delivery of mouse IL-4d2 to mouse lungs in vivo was used, and the effects compared with similar adenoviral delivery of mouse IL-4 or with infection with a NULL viral construct.

Description
RATIONALE: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal disease with overtly scarred peripheral and basilar lung regions and macroscopically unaffected central lung areas. OBJECTIVES: To gain better insight into IPF pathobiology by comparing transcriptomic profiles of normal-appearing and scarred regions of IPF lung. METHODS: Lung tissue samples from macroscopically unaffected (normal-appearing, IPFn) and scarred (IPFs) regions of explanted IPF lungs were analyzed by RNASeq and compared with healthy control (HC) lung tissues. RT-qPCR and immunohistochemistry were used to confirm selected findings. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS: Numerous previously reported IPF-associated gene expression disturbances as well as additional differentially expressed mRNAs were observed. There were profound transcriptomic changes in IPFn compared with HC tissues, which included elevated expression of extracellular matrix-, immunity- and inflammation-related mRNAs. The magnitude and statistical significance of these changes were comparable or greater than those in the IPFs-to-HC comparison. When directly compared with IPFn, IPFs tissues demonstrated elevated expression of epithelial mucociliary mRNAs. Compared with HC, both IPFn and IPFs tissues demonstrated reduced expression of mRNAs related to solute carrier membrane transport and metabolic processes. Primary fibroblast cultures from IPFn and IPFs tissues were transcriptomically identical. CONCLUSIONS: Macroscopically normal-appearing IPF tissues demonstrate profound disease activity and substantially similar transcriptomic profiles to scarred areas. Differences between these tissues are due to cell types other than fibroblasts and notably include enhanced expression of mucociliary genes in scarred areas. Deranged epithelial homeostasis or possibly non-transcriptomic factors may thus explain the marked architectural differences between normal-appearing and terminally scarred lung in end-stage IPF. Overall design: RNASeq of 26 lung tissue samples from patients with IPF, including affected and unaffected areas of the lung, and from healthy controls

Description
Approximately 20% of Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) cases carry the t(8;21) translocation, which involves the AML1 and ETO genes, and express the resulting AML1/ETO fusion protein that functions as a transcriptional repressor by recruiting NCoR/SMRT/HDAC complexes to DNA.

Description
Approximately one third of acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs) are characterized by aberrant cytoplasmic localization of Nucleophosmin (NPMc+ AML), consequent to mutations in the NPM putative nucleolar localization signal. These events are mutually exclusive with the major AML-associated chromosomal rearrangements, and are frequently associated with normal karyotype, Fms-like tyrosine kinase (FLT3) mutations and multilineage involvement. We report the gene expression profiles of 78 de novo AMLs (72 with normal karyotype; 6 with non-major chromosomal abnormalities) that were characterized for the subcellular localization and mutation status of NPM. Unsupervised clustering clearly separated NPMc+ from NPMc- AMLs, regardless of the presence of FLT3 mutations or non-major chromosomal rearrangements, supporting the concept that NPMc+ AML represents a distinct entity. The molecular signature of NPMc+ AML includes up-regulation of several genes putatively involved in the maintenance of a stem cell phenotype, suggesting that NPMc+ AML may derive from a multipotent hematopoietic progenitor.

Description
Background: First- and third-generation retinoids are the main treatment in acne. Even though efficacious, they lack full selectivity for RAR expressed in the epidermis and infundibulum. Objectives: To characterize the in vitro metabolism and the pharmacology of the novel retinoid trifarotene. Methods: In vitro assays determined efficacy, potency and selectivity on RARs, as well as the activity on the expression of retinoid target genes in human keratinocytes and ex vivo cultured skin. In vivo studies investigated topical comedolytic, anti-inflammatory and depigmenting properties. The trifarotene-induced gene expression profile was investigated in non-lesional skin of acne patients and compared to ex vivo and in vivo models. Finally, the metabolic stability in human keratinocytes and hepatic microsomes was established. Results: Trifarotene is a selective RAR agonist with >20-fold selectivity over RAR and RAR. Trifarotene is active and stable in keratinocytes but rapidly metabolized by human hepatic microsomes, predicting improved safety. In vivo, trifarotene 0.01% applied topically is highly comedolytic and has antiinflammatory and antipigmenting properties. Gene expression studies indicated potent activation of known retinoid-modulated processes (epidermal differentiation, proliferation, stress response, RA metabolism) and novel pathways (proteolysis, transport/skin hydration, cell adhesion) in ex vivo and in vivo models, as well as in human skin after four weeks of topical application of trifarotene 0.005% cream. Conclusion: Based on its RAR selectivity, rapid degradation in human hepatic microsomes and pharmacological properties including potent modulation of epidermal processes, topical treatment with trifarotene is expected to provide strong efficacy combined with a favourable safety profile in acne and ichthyotic disorders.

Description
A coding variant of the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) risk gene ATG16L1 has been associated with defective autophagy and deregulation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function. IL-22 is a barrier protective cytokine by inducing regeneration and antimicrobial responses in the intestinal mucosa. We show that ATG16L1 critically orchestrates IL-22 signaling in the intestinal epithelium. IL-22 stimulation physiologically leads to transient ER stress and subsequent activation of STING dependent type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling, which is augmented in Atg16l1?IEC intestinal organoids. IFN-I signals amplify epithelial TNF production downstream of IL-22 and contribute to necroptotic cell death. In vivo, IL-22 treatment in Atg16l1?IEC and Atg16l1?IEC/Xbp1?IEC mice potentiates endogenous ileal inflammation and causes widespread necroptotic epithelial cell death. Therapeutic blockade of IFN-I signaling ameliorates IL-22 induced ileal inflammation in Atg16l1?IEC mice. Our data demonstrate an unexpected role of ATG16L1 in coordinating the outcome of IL-22 signaling in the intestinal epithelium. Overall design: Organoids from Atg16l intestinal knockout vs. Wildtype

Description
Activation of the MLL-ENL-ERtm oncogene initiates aberrant proliferation of myeloid progenitors. Here, we show induction of a fail-safe mechanism mediated by the DNA damage response (DDR) machinery that results in activation of the ATR/ATM-Chk1/Chk2-p53/p21 checkpoint and cellular senescence at early stages of cellular transformation caused by a regulatable MLL-ENL-ERtm in mice. Furthermore, we identified the transcription program underlying this intrinsic anti-cancer barrier, and DDR-induced inflammatory regulators that fine-tune the signaling towards senescence, thereby modulating the fate of MLL-ENL-immortalized cells in a tissue-environment-dependent manner. Our results indicate that DDR is a rate-limiting event for acquisition of stem cell-like properties in MLL-ENL-ERtm-mediated transformation, as experimental inhibition of the barrier accelerated the transition to immature cell states and acute leukemia development.

Affymetrix HuGene ST 1.0 microarrays were used to study and compare gene expression in peripheral blood CD8+ T cells of human patients with Acute Infectious Mononucleosis (AIM; acute EBV infection) and during convalescence (CONV; 6-12 months after AIM visit). Blood samples were drawn from ten human patients with AIM and again during their covalescence (CONV). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated and cryopreserved. Paired AIM and CONV samples were thawed and CD8+ T cells purified with magnetic beads. RNA was isolated and processed for hybridization according to the Affymetrix protocol
