Description
To compare up-regulation of genes following CpG activation, we performed microarray analysis of activated macrophages from B6 and F1(B6xMOLF) mouse strains. Cells were activated for 0, 2 and 4 hrs with 200nM of type B CpG. Levels of mRNA for many genes differened dramatically between the strains

Description
We have found the existence of two independent populations contributing to the skin-resident macrophage pool based on their different origin. We have analyzed their gene profile by deep-sequencing (RNA-Seq). Analysis of RNA-Seq data revealed a differential expression signature between both subsets of skin macrophages for 744 of 17741 genes compiled (198 of them showing similar normalized expression levels across replicates). We have further characterized their specialized functions related to their different gene profiles. Overall design: Examination of gene profile of 2 different macrophage subsets coexisting in skin under steady state.

Description
This experiment compares the transciptional changes in antigen specific murine CD8 T cells (P14 T cells) after exposure in vivo to dendritic cells (DC) pulsed with low dose cognate peptide (1uM KAVYNFATC), high dose cognate peptide (100uM KAVYNFATC) or no antigen. Splenic dendritic cells were freshly isolated, peptide pulsed, washed and then adoptively transferred s.c. to the right footpad of C57BL/6 hosts. After 18h, freshly isolated P14 CD8 T cells were labelled with CMFDA and adoptively transferred iv. Two hours after T cell transfer, anti-L selectin antibody was given iv. At 12 and 24 hours, recipients were sacrificed and The right popliteal LN was harvested at 12 or 24h post T cell transfer and a single cell suspension was created and stained with PE CD4, B220 and CD19 (dump channel). Cells were then sorted on a FacsARIA for being non-doublets, CMFDA positive and dump channel negative.

Description
Primordial germ cell (PGC) development is characterized by global epigenetic remodeling, which resets genomic potential and establishes an epigenetic ground state. Here we recapitulate PGC specification in vitro from naive embryonic stem cells and characterize the early events of epigenetic reprogramming during the formation of the human and mouse germline. Following rapid de novo DNA methylation during priming to epiblast-like cells, methylation is globally erased in PGC-like cells (PGCLCs). Repressive chromatin marks (H3K9me2/3) and transposable elements are enriched at demethylation resistant regions, while active chromatin marks (H3K4me3 or H3K27ac) are more prominent at regions that demethylate faster. The dynamics of specification and epigenetic reprogramming show species-specific differences, in particular markedly slower reprogramming kinetics in the human germline. Differences in developmental kinetics between species may be explained by differential regulation of epigenetic modifiers. Our work establishes a robust and faithful experimental system of the early events of epigenetic reprogramming and its regulation in the germline. Overall design: mRNA-seq, BS-seq and PBAT of different time-points during human and mouse in vitro PGC-like cell specification

Description
DNA methylation and other repressive epigenetic marks are erased genome-wide in mammalian primordial germ cells (PGCs), the early embryo and in naïve embryonic stem cells (ESCs). This is a critical phase for transposon element (TE) defense since presumably alternative pathways need to be employed to limit their activity. It has been reported that pervasive transcription is enriched for TEs in ESCs in comparison to somatic cells. Here we test the hypothesis that pervasive transcription overlapping TEs forms a sensor for loss of their transcriptional repression. Overlapping sense and antisense transcription is found in TEs, and the increase of sense transcription induced by acute deletion of DNMT1 leads to the emergence of small RNAs. These small RNAs are loaded into ARGONAUTE 2 suggesting an endosiRNA mechanism for transposon silencing. Indeed, deletion of DICER reveals this mechanism to be important for silencing of certain transposon classes, while others are additionally repressed by deposition of repressive histone marks. Our observations suggest that pervasive transcription overlapping with TEs resulting in endosiRNAs is a transposon sensor that restrains their activity during epigenetic reprogramming in the germline. Overall design: Total RNA-seq libraires (2 biological replicates of 16 samples, 1 biological replicate of 1 sample)

Description
Using single-cell RNA-seq of intestinal epithelial cells we identify surprising expression of MHC class II, which participates in a novel interaction between gut-resident CD4+ T cells and epithelial stem cells, governing the balance between stem cell differentiation and renewal. Overall design: In the small intestine, a niche of accessory cell types supports the generation of mature epithelial cell types from intestinal stem cells (ISCs). It is unclear, however, if and how immune cells in the niche affect ISC fate or the balance between self-renewal and differentiation. Here, we use single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to identify MHC class II (MHCII) machinery enrichment in two subsets of Lgr5+ ISCs. We show that MHCII+ Lgr5+ ISCs are non-conventional antigen-presenting cells in co-cultures with CD4+ T helper (Th) cells. Stimulation of intestinal organoids with key Th cytokines affects Lgr5+ ISC renewal and differentiation in opposing ways: pro-inflammatory signals promote differentiation, while regulatory cells and cytokines reduce it. In vivo genetic perturbation of Th cells or MHCII expression on Lgr5+ ISCs impacts epithelial cell differentiation and IEC fate during infection. These interactions between Th cells and Lgr5+ ISCs, thus, orchestrate tissue-wide responses to external signals.
