Description
Corticosteroids are the current standard of care to improve short-term mortality in severe alcoholic hepatitis (AH), although nearly 40% of the patients do not respond and accurate pre-treatment predictors are lacking. We developed 123-gene prognostic score based on molecular and clinical variables before initiation of corticosteroids. Furthermore, The gene signature was implemented in an FDA-approved platform (NanoString), and verified for technical validity and prognostic capability. Here we demonstrated that a Nanostring-based gene expressoin risk classification is useful to predict mortality in patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis who were treated by corticosteroid

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133A 2.0 Array (hgu133a2)
Description
The low frequency of HBV-specific CD8+ T cells in the peripheral blood of CHB patients has limited studies of the mechanisms underlying HBV-induced T cell exhaustion. Similar to the expansion defect displayed in HBV-specific CD8+ T cells, TCR-induced proliferation of global CD8+ T cells is impaired in a fraction of chronic HBV (CHB) patients. Thus, examining the molecular regulation of global CD8+ T cell function in CHB patients may provide insight into the exhaustion of HBV-specific CD8+ T cells.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
The transcription factor STAT1 is essential for interferon- (IFN) mediated protective immunity in humans and mice. Two splice isoforms of STAT1, STAT1 and STAT1, differ with regard to a C-terminal transactivation domain, which is absent in STAT1. Dimers of STAT1 are therefore considered transcriptionally inactive and potential competitive inhibitors of STAT1. Contrasting this view, generation and analysis of mice deficient for either STAT1 or STAT1 demonstrated transcriptional activity of the STAT1 isoform and its enhancement of innate immunity. Gene expression profiling in primary cells revealed overlapping, but also non-redundant and gene-specific activities of STAT1 and STAT1 in response to IFN. Consistently, both isoforms mediated protective, IFN-dependent immunity against the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes, although with remarkably different efficiency. In contrast, STAT1 and STAT1 were largely redundant for transcriptional responses to IFN/ and for IFN/-dependent antiviral activity. Collectively, our data shed new light on how STAT1 isoforms contribute to antimicrobial immunity.
Publication Title
STAT1β is not dominant negative and is capable of contributing to gamma interferon-dependent innate immunity.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Quantitative assays for human DNA and mRNA were used to examine the paradox that intravenously (IV) infused human multipotent stromal cells (hMSCs) can enhance tissue repair without significant engraftment. After 2 X 106 hMSCs were IV infused into mice, most of the cells were trapped as emboli in lung. The cells in lung disappeared with a half-life of about 24 hr but < 1,000 cells appeared in 6 other tissues. The hMSCs in lung up-regulated expression of multiple genes with a large increase in the anti-inflammatory protein TSG-6. After myocardial infarction, IV hMSCs but not hMSCs transduced with TSG-6 siRNA decreased inflammatory responses, reduced infarct size, and improved cardiac function. IV administration of recombinant TSG-6 also reduced inflammatory responses and reduced infarct size. The results suggest improvements in animal models and patients after IV infusions of MSCs are at least in part explained by activation of MSCs to secrete TSG-6.
Publication Title
Intravenous hMSCs improve myocardial infarction in mice because cells embolized in lung are activated to secrete the anti-inflammatory protein TSG-6.

Description
Background: Global DNA methylation contributes to genomic integrity by supressing repeat associated transposition events. Several chromatin factors are required in addition to DNA methyltransferases to maintain DNA methylation at intergenic and satellite repeats. Embryos lacking Lsh, a member of the SNF2 superfamily of chromatin helicases, are hypomethylated. The interaction of Lsh with the de novo methyltransferase, Dnmt3b, facilitates the deposition of DNA methylation at stem cell genes. We wished to determine if a similar targeting mechanism operates to maintain DNA methylation at repetitive sequences. Results: We used HELP-seq to map genome wide DNA methylation patterns in Lsh-/- and Dnmt3b-/- somatic cells. DNA methylation is predominantly lost from specific genomic repeats in Lsh-/- cells: LTR-retrotransposons, LINE-1 repeats and mouse satellites. RNA-seq experiments demonstrate that specific IAP (Intracisternal A-type particle) LTRs and satellites, but not LINE-1 elements, are aberrantly transcribed inLsh-/- cells. LTR hypomethylation in Dnmt3b-/- cells is moderate and hypomethylated repetitive elements (IAP, LINE-1 and satellite) are silent. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) indicates that repressed LINE-1 elements gain H3K4me3, but H3K9me3 levels are unaltered in Lsh-/- cells, indicating that DNA hypomethylation alone is not permissive for their transcriptional activation. Mis-expressed IAPs and satellites lose H3K9me3 and gain H3K4me3 in Lsh-/- cells. Conclusions: Our study emphasizes that regulation of repetitive elements by DNA methylation is selective and context dependent. We propose a model where Lsh is specifically required at a precise developmental window to target de novo methylation to repeat sequences, which is subsequently maintained by Dnmt1 in somatic cells to enforce repeat silencing thus contributing to genomic integrity. Overall design: Two pairs of RNA samples compared: WT and Lsh-/- RNA isolations from tail-tip fibroblasts; WT and Lsh-/- RNA isolations from E13.5 mouse embryos.
Publication Title
Lsh regulates LTR retrotransposon repression independently of Dnmt3b function.
