Description
GATA2 is a transcription factor that is required for hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) differentiation. GATA2 is also expressed in mesenchymal cells and blocks differentiation of both white and brown adipocytes by interfering with C/EBP activity and PPAR expression. By studying genome-wide binding sites of endogenous GATA2 in mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), we discovered a previously unrecognized function of GATA2 in the regulation of skeletal development-related genes. In contrast to hematopoietic stem cells, canonical GATA2 binding motifs in MSCs co-localized with motifs for transcription factors of the FOX and HOX family, known regulators of skeletal development. Consistently, ectopic GATA2 expression in MSCs regulated many osteoblast-related genes. Ectopic GATA2 blocked, whereas GATA2 deletion enhanced differentiation of osteoblastic precursors. GATA2 expression inhibited bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 induced SMAD1/5/8 activity, a pathway that drives osteoblastogenesis. MSC-specific deletion of GATA2 in mice affected both numbers and osteogenic potential of bone-residing precursors without disturbing normal skeletal development. In adult mice, MSC-specific GATA2 deficiency affected trabecular bone structure and its mechanical properties. blood phenotype? In summary, our study identified GATA2 as a novel regulator of osteoblast differentiation and bone morphology, suggesting a role of GATA2 in MSC lineage determination that goes beyond adipocyte differentiation.

Description
Scavenger receptors on the cell surface of macrophages play an important role in host defence through their ability to bind microbial ligands and induce phagocytosis. Concurrently, signal transduction pathways are initiated that aid in defence mechanisms against the invading microbe. Here we report on the function of scavenger receptor Marco (macrophage receptor with collagenous structure) during infection of zebrafish embryos with Mycobacterium marinum, a close relative of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Morpholino knockdown demonstrates that Marco is required for the rapid phagocytosis of M. marinum following intravenous infection. Furthermore, gene expression analysis shows that Marco controls the initial transient pro-inflammatory response to M. marinum and remains a determining factor for the immune response signature at later stages of infection. Increased bacterial burden following marco knockdown indicates that this scavenger receptor is important for control of M. marinum growth, likely due to delayed phagocytosis and reduced pro-inflammatory signalling observed under conditions of Marco deficiency Overall design: Embryos were injected at the one cell stage with a morpholino targeting marco, or with the standard control morpholino from GeneTools for comparison. Subsequently, at 24 hours post fertilization (hpf) the morphants and their controls were manually dechorionated at 24 hpf and at 28 hpf they were infected by injecting 200 colony forming units of M. marinum Mma20 into the caudal vein, or mock-injected with PBS/2%PVP. After injections embryos were transferred into fresh egg water containing 0.003% 1-phenyl-2-thiourea (Sigma-Aldrich) to prevent melanization and incubated for 4 days at 28°C. After the incubation period, infected and uninfected morphants, mutants and their controls were imaged and groups of 30 embryos were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and RNA was isolated for Illumina RNAseq analysis.

Description
Both embryonic and adult zebrafish Mycobacterium marinum infection studies have contributed to our knowledge of the development and function of tuberculous granulomas, which are typical for mycobacterial pathogenesis. In this review we discuss how transcriptome profiling studies have helped to characterize this infection process and we include new RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data that reveals three main phases in the host response to M. marinum during the early stages of granuloma development in zebrafish embryos and larvae. The late-phase response shares common components with the strong and acute host transcriptome response that has previously been reported for S. typhimurium infection in zebrafish embryos. In contrast, the early/mid-phase response to M. marinum infection, characterized by suppressed pro-inflammatory signaling, is strikingly different from the acute response to S. typhimurium infection. Furthermore, M. marinum infection shows a collective and strongly fluctuating regulation of lipoproteins, while S. typhimurium infection has pronounced effects on amino acid metabolism and glycolysis. Overall design: Embryos were infected at 28 hpf by injecting 250 colony forming units of M. marinum Mma20 in 2%PVP into the caudal vein, or mock-injected with PBS/2%PVP. After injections, embryos were transferred into fresh egg water containing 0.003% 1-phenyl-2-thiourea (Sigma-Aldrich) to prevent melanization and incubated at 28°C. After the incubation period, infected and uninfected groups of 30 embryos were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and RNA was isolated for Illumina RNAseq analysis. Samples were taken at the following timepoints: 2, 4, 6, 8 hpi and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 dpi.

Description
We use the Tlr2 mutant of zebrafish embryos model to study the transcriptome response to Mycobacterium marinum infection. We injected M.marinum into the caudal vein at 28 hours post fertilization and took samples at 4 days post infection. Overall design: This deep sequence study was designed to determine the gene expression profile in the Tlr2 mutant and heterozygote by M.marinum infection. RNA was isolated at 4 days post infection. Tlr2 mutants and heterozygotes zebrafish embryos were micro-injected into the caudal vein with 150CFU M.marinum, or PBS as a control at 28 hours post fertilization. After injections embryso were transerred into fresh egg water and incubated at 28 degree. At 4 days post infection triplicateds of 10 embryos per condition were snapfrozen in liquid nitogen, and total RNA was isolated using TRIZOL reagent.

Description
Transcriptional profiling of the zebrafish embryonic host response to a systemic bacterial infection with Salmonella typhimurium (strain SL1027); comparison between traf6 knock-down and control morpholino treated embryos. Overall design: All infection experiments were performed using mixed egg clutches of ABxTL strain zebrafish. Embryos injected with traf6 morpholino or a 5bp mismatch control morpholino were staged at 27 hours post fertilization (hpf) by morphological criteria and approximately 250 cfu of DsRed expressing Salmonella bacteria were injected into the caudal vein close to the urogenital opening. As a control an equal volume of PBS was likewise injected. Pools of 20-40 infected and control embryos were collected 8 hours post infection (hpi). The whole procedure was preformed in triplicate on separate days. Total RNA of the biological triplicates was pooled using equal amounts of RNA prior to RNAseq library preparation.

Description
Glucocorticoid drugs are widely used to treat immune-related diseases, but their use is limited by side effects and by resistance, which especially occurs in macrophage-dominated diseases. In order to improve glucocorticoid therapies, more research is required into the mechanisms of glucocorticoid action. In the present study, we have used a zebrafish model for inflammation to study glucocorticoid effects on the innate immune response. In zebrafish larvae, the migration of neutrophils towards a site of injury is inhibited by the synthetic glucocorticoid beclomethasone, while migration of macrophages is glucocorticoid resistant. RNA sequencing was done on on Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting (FACS)-sorted macrophages.The results show that the vast majority of the wounding-induced transcriptional changes in these cells are inhibited by beclomethasone, whereas a small subset is glucocorticoid-insensitive. As a result, beclomethasone decreases the number of macrophages that differentiate towards a pro-inflammatory (M1) phenotype, which we demonstrated using a tnfa:eGFP-F reporter line and analysis of macrophage morphology. We conclude that the glucocorticoid resistance of the wounding-induced macrophage migration is due to the insensitivity of the induction of macrophage-specific chemoattractants to glucocorticoid inhibition, which may explain the relative resistance of macrophage-dominated diseases to glucocorticoid therapy. However, the induction of pro-inflammatory genes in macrophages is strongly attenuated, which inhibits their differentiation to an M1 phenotype. Overall design: After anesthesia with 0.02% aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester (tricaine, Sigma Aldrich), the tails of 3 days post fertilization (dpf) embryos were partially amputated with a 1mm sapphire blade (World Precision Instruments) on 2% agarose-coated Petri dishes under a Leica M165C stereomicroscope (Chatzopoulou et al., 2016). Amputated and non-amputated (control) embryos were pretreated for 2 hours with 25 µM beclomethasone (Sigma Aldrich) or vehicle (0.05% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)) in egg water prior to amputation and received the same treatment after the amputation. Macrophages were sorted from Tg(mpeg1.4:mCherry-F) embryos as previously described (Rougeot et al., 2014; Zakrzewska et al., 2010) at 4 hours post amputation (hpa). The sorted cells were collected in QIAzol lysis reagent (Qiagen) for RNA isolation. Extracted total RNA was amplified using the SMART-seq V4 kit (Clontech) for sequencing. The RNA seq libraries generated with the SMART-seq V4 kit were sequenced using an Illumina HiSeq 2500 instrument according to the manufacturer's instructions with a read length of 50 nucleotides.
