Description
This study analysed the transcriptome of mouse Rex1GFPd2 cells before and during early differentiation and further investigated the transcriptomic changes of Nprl2 and Tsc2 knockout. Overall design: RNA samples were collected before differentiation, and on day 1, 2, 3 of differentiation; RNA samples of Rex1GFP positive population were collected for Nprl2, Tsc2 knockout and compared to wild type cells.

Description
End stage renal disease (ESRD) is associated with hyperplastic-cystic remodelling of the kidneys (ARCD) and increased rate of kidney tumours. Using the Affymetrix oligoarray, we have established the gene expression signature of ESRD/ARCD kidneys and compared to those of normal kidneys and of distinct types of renal tumours.

Description
Although small RNAs efficiently control transposition activity of most transposons in the host genome, such immune system is not always applicable against new transposon's invasions. Here we explored a possibility to introduce potentially mobile copy of the Penelope retroelement previously implicated in hybrid dysgenesis syndrome in Drosophila virilis into the genomes of two distant Drosophila species. The consequences of such introduction were monitored at different phases after experimental colonization as well as in D. virilis species which is apparently in the process of ongoing Penelope invasion. We investigated the expression of Penelope and biogenesis of Penelope-derived small RNAs in D. virilis and D. melanogaster strains originally lacking active copies of this element after experimental Penelope invasion. These strains were transformed by constructs containing intact Penelope copies. We show that immediately after transformation, which imitates the first stage of retroelement invasion, Penelope undergoes transposition predominantly in somatic tissues, and may produce siRNAs that are apparently unable to completely silence its activity. However, at the later stages of colonization Penelope copies may jump into one of the piRNA-clusters, which results in production of homologous piRNAs that are maternally deposited and can silence euchromatic transcriptionally active copies of Penelope in trans and, hence, prevent further amplification of the invader in the host genome. Intact Penelope copies and different classes of Penelope-derived small RNAs were found in most geographical strains of D. virilis collected throughout the world. Importantly, all strains of this species containing full-length Penelope tested do not produce gonadal sterility in dysgenic crosses and, hence, exhibit neutral cytotype. In order to understand whether RNA interference mechanism able to target Penelope operates in related species of the virilis group we correlated the presence of full-length and potentially active Penelope with the occurrence of piRNAs homologous to this TE in the ovaries of species comprising the group. It was demonstrated, that Penelope-derived piRNAs are present in all virilis group species containing full-length but transcriptionally silent copies of this element that probably represent the remnants of its previous invasions taking place in the course of the virilis species divergent evolution. Overall design: piRNA size profile (23-29nt) was examined in D. melanogaster strains, where Penelope-piRNAs are detected by Northern blot

Description
Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of cellular pathways. The goals of this study are to compare NGS-derived skin transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) to determine pathways and networks dependent on retinoic acid during skin development. Methods: Skin mRNA profiles of embryonic day E16.5 wild-type (WT) and Cyp26b1 knockout (Cyp26b1-/-), and of control and of dermal and epidermal skin fractions of Engrailed1cre;Cyp26b1f/- (En1cre;Cyp26b1f/-) conditional knockout mice were generated by deep sequencing, in duplicate, using Illumina HiSeq2000. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level by ANOVA (ANOVA) and TopHat. qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green assay. Results: RNA-Seq data were generated with Illumina’s HiSeq 2000 system. Raw sequencing data were processed with CASAVA 1.8.2 to generate fastq files. Reads of 50 bases were mapped to the mouse transcriptome and genome mm9 using TopHat 1.3.2. Gene expression values (RPKM) were calculated with Partek Genomics Suite 6.6, which was also used for the ANOVA analysis to determine significantly differentially expressed genes. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of Cyp26b1-/- skin and En1cre;Cyp26b1f/- dermis/epidermic transcriptomes, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide a framework for comparative investigations of expression profiles. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would expedite genetic network analyses and permit the dissection of complex biologic functions. Overall design: Skin mRNA profiles of embryonic-day 16.5 wild type (WT) and Cyp26b1-/- mice and of dermis and epidermis of embryonic day 18.5 control and En1cre;Cyp26b1f/- were generated by deep sequencing, in duplicate, using Illumina HiSeq2000.

Description
CD4 T cell help is critical for both the generation and maintenance of germinal centers, and T follicular helper (TFH) cells are the CD4 T cell subset required for this process. SAP (SH2D1A) expression in CD4 T cells is essential for germinal center development. However, SAP-deficient mice have only a moderate defect in TFH differentiation as defined by common TFH surface markers. CXCR5+ TFH cells are found within the germinal center as well as along the boundary regions of T/B cell zones. Here we show that germinal center associated T cells (GC TFH) can be identified by their co-expression of CXCR5 and the GL7 epitope, allowing for phenotypic and functional analysis of TFH and GC TFH populations. Here we show GC TFH are a functionally discrete subset of further polarized TFH cells, with enhanced B cell help capacity and a specialized ability to produce IL-4 in a TH2-independent manner. Strikingly, SAP-deficient mice have an absence of the GC TFH subset and SAP- TFH are defective in IL-4 and IL-21 production. We further demonstrate that SLAM (Slamf1, CD150), a surface receptor that utilizes SAP signaling, is specifically required for IL-4 production by GC TFH. GC TFH cells require IL-4 and IL-21 production for optimal help to B cells. These data illustrate complexities of SAP-dependent SLAM family receptor signaling, revealing a prominent role for SLAM receptor ligation in IL-4 production by germinal center CD4 T cells but not in TFH and GC TFH differentiation.

Description
Cortical interneurons display a remarkable diversity in their morphology, physiological properties and connectivity. Elucidating the molecular determinants underlying this heterogeneity is essential for understanding interneuron development and function. We discovered that alternative splicing differentially regulates the integration of somatostatin- and parvalbumin-expressing interneurons into nascent cortical circuits through the cell-type specific tailoring of mRNAs. Specifically, we identified a role for the activity-dependent splicing regulator Rbfox1 in the development of cortical interneuron subtype specific efferent connectivity. Our work demonstrates that Rbfox1 mediates largely non-overlapping alternative splicing programs within two distinct but related classes of interneurons. Overall design: RNA-seq of FACS sorted PV+ and SST+ cortical interneuronals at P8 of wt and conditional Rbfox1 Kos
