Description
Before birth B-cells develop in the fetal liver (FL). Here we show that Gli3 activity in the FL stroma is required for B-cell development. In the Gli3-deficient FL B-cell development was reduced at multiple stages, whereas the Sonic hedgehog (Shh)-deficient FL showed increased B-cell development, and Gli3 functioned to repress Shh transcription. Use of a transgenic Hedgehog (Hh)-reporter mouse showed that Shh signals directly to developing B-cells, and that Hh pathway activation was increased in developing B-cells from Gli3-deficient fetal liver. RNAsequencing confirmed that Hh-mediated transcription is increased in B-lineage cells from Gli3-deficient FL, and showed that these cells expressed reduced levels of B-lineage transcription factors and BCR/pre-BCR-signalling genes. We showed that expression of the master regulators of B-cell development, Ebf1 and Pax5, is reduced in developing B-cells from Gli3-deficient FL and increased in Shh-deficient FL, and that in vitro Shh-treatment or neutralisation can repress or induce their expression respectively. Overall design: Wildtype and Gli3 mutant (Gli3+/- and Gli3-/-) (n=2) embryonic day 17.5 fetal livers were sorted for CD19+B220+ cells. RNA extracted from these cells was sequenced to help understand the transcriptional changes governing B cell development in the Gli3 mutants.

Description
Despite Hedgehogs influence on T-cell activation and proliferation, the transcriptional targets of Gli2 in lymphocytes are not known. We therefore examined the Hedgehog-dependent transcriptional response of resting and early-stage activated T-cells in order to define their transcriptional response to Hedgehog pathway activation.

Description
Dietary gluten proteins (prolamins) from wheat, rye, and barley are the driving forces behind celiac disease, an organ-specific autoimmune disorder that targets both the small intestine and organs outside the gut. In the small intestine, gluten induces inflammation and a typical morphological change of villous atrophy and crypt hyperplasia. Gut lesions improve and heal when gluten is excluded from the diet and the disease relapses when patients consume gluten. Oral immune tolerance towards gluten may be kept for years or decades before breaking tolerance in genetically susceptible individuals. Celiac disease provides a unique opportunity to study autoimmunity and the transition in immune cells as gluten breaks oral tolerance. Seventy-three celiac disease patients on a long-term gluten-free diet ingested a known amount of gluten daily for six weeks. A peripheral blood sample and intestinal biopsies were taken before and six weeks after initiating the gluten challenge. Biopsy results were reported on a continuous numeric scale that measured the villus height to crypt depth ratio to quantify gluten-induced gut mucosal injury. Pooled B and T cells were isolated from whole blood, and RNA was analyzed by DNA microarray looking for changes in peripheral B- and T-cell gene expression that correlated with changes in villus height to crypt depth, as patients maintained or broke oral tolerance in the face of a gluten challenge.

Description
We have demonstrated that the oncogenic activation of B-RAF (using a truncated delta-BRAF-ER version inducible with tamoxifen) in the melan-a melanocyte cell line triggers the activation of Zeb1 and Twist1 at the expanse of Zeb2 and Snail2. Enforced maintenance of Zeb2 or Snail2 expression reduces the B-RAF oncogenic potential while ectopic expression of Zeb1 or Twist1 cooperates with B-RAF in melan-a cell transformation. To get an insight into the properties of these embryonic transcription factors, gene expression profiles of melan-a-derived cell lines either expressing a non-activated B-RAF (- tamoxifen) or an activated BRAF (+ tamoxifen) alone or in combination with Snail2, Zeb2, Twist1 or Zeb1 have been established.

Description
Background: Information on the carcinogenic potential of chemicals is only availably for High Production Volume products. There is however, a pressing need for alternative methods allowing for the chronic toxicity of substances, including carcinogenicity, to be detected earlier and more reliably. Here we applied advanced genomics to a cellular transformation assay to identify gene signatures useful for the prediction of risk for carcinogenicity. Methods: Genome wide gene expression analysis and qRT-PCR were applied to untransformed and transformed Balb/c 3T3 cells that exposed to 2, 4-diaminotoluene (DAT), benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), 2-Acetylaminoflourene (AAF) and 3-methycholanthrene (MCA) for 24h and 120h, at different concentrations, respectively. Furthermore, various bioinformatics tools were used to identify gene signatures predicting for the carcinogenic risk. Results: Bioinformatics analysis revealed distinct datasets for the individual chemicals tested while the number of significantly regulated genes increased with ascending treatment concentration of the cell cultures. Filtering of the data revealed a common gene signature that comprised of 13 genes whose regulation in cancer tissue has already been established. Strikingly, this gene signature was already identified prior to cell transformation therefore confirming the predictive power of this gene signature in identifying carcinogenic risks of chemicals. Comparison of fold changes determined by microarray analysis and qRT-PCR were in good agreement. Conclusion: Our data describes selective and commonly regulated carcinogenic pathways observed in an easy to use in vitro carcinogenicity assay. Here we defined a set of genes which can serve as a simply assay to predict the risk for carcinogenicity by use of an alternative in vitro testing strategy.
