Description
T follicular helper (Tfh) cells are a subset of CD4+ T helper (Th) cells that migrate into germinal centers and promote B cell maturation into memory B and plasma cells. Tfh cells are necessary for promotion of protective humoral immunity following pathogen challenge, but when aberrantly regulated, drive pathogenic antibody formation in autoimmunity and undergo neoplastic transformation in angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma and other primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. Limited information is available on the expression and regulation of genes in human Tfh cells. Using a fluorescence activated cell sorting-based strategy, we obtained primary Tfh and non-Tfh T effector (Teff) cells from tonsils and prepared genome-wide maps of active, intermediate, and poised enhancers determined by ChIP-seq, with parallel transcriptome analyses determined by RNA-seq. Tfh cell enhancers were enriched near genes highly expressed in lymphoid cells or involved in lymphoid cell function, with many mapping to sites previously associated with autoimmune disease in genome-wide association studies. A group of active enhancers unique to Tfh cells associated with differentially expressed genes was identified. Fragments from these regions directed expression in reporter gene assays. These data provide a significant resource for studies of T lymphocyte development and differentiation and normal and perturbed Tfh cell function. Overall design: Using a fluorescence activated cell sorting-based strategy, we obtained primary Tfh and non-Tfh T effector (Teff) cells from tonsils and prepared genome-wide maps of active, intermediate, and poised enhancers determined by ChIP-seq, with parallel transcriptome analyses determined by RNA-seq.

Description
Senescence is a state of stable cell cycle exit that has important implications for development, physiology and disease. It is distinct from quiescence in which cells can be induced to re-enter the cell cycle. Although it is well known that there are massive changes in the heterochromatin of senescent cells, the molecular mechanisms underpinning the transition from reversible quiescence into irreversible senescence have remained elusive. Here, we demonstrate that the chromatin-remodeling enzyme ATRX is required for senescence. ATRX accumulates in nuclear foci during both replicative and cellular senescence. Using ChIP-seq and RNA-seq we identified HRAS as part of an ATRX regulated gene expression program associated with senescence. Repression of HRAS is sufficient to promote the transition of quiescent cells into senescence. Thus we conclude that the repression of HRAS is likely a direct consequence of ATRX binding and critical to how it mediates its role in senescence. Overall design: mRNA expression profiles were analyzed in dedifferentiated liposarcoma cell lines under cycling, quiescent and senescent (using two unique inducers) conditions via RNA-seq

Description
Investigating neuronal and photoreceptor regeneration in the retina of zebrafish has begun to yield insights into both the cellular and molecular means by which this lower vertebrate is able to repair its central nervous system. However, knowledge about the signaling molecules in the local microenvironment of a retinal injury and the transcriptional events they activate during neuronal death and regeneration is still lacking. To identify genes involved in photoreceptor regeneration, we combined light-induced photoreceptor lesions, laser-capture microdissection (LCM) of the outer nuclear layer (ONL) and analysis of gene expression to characterize transcriptional changes for cells in the ONL as photoreceptors die and are regenerated. Using this approach, we were able to characterize aspects of the molecular signature of injured and dying photoreceptors, cone photoreceptor progenitors and microglia within the ONL. We validated changes in gene expression and characterized the cellular expression for three novel, extracellular signaling molecules that we hypothesize are involved in regulating regenerative events in the retina.

Description
Inadequate protein intake initiates an accommodative response with adverse changes in skeletal muscle function and structure. mRNA level changes due to short-term inadequate dietary protein might be an early indicator of accommodation. The aims of this study were to assess the effects of dietary protein and the diet-by-age interaction on the skeletal muscle transcript profile. Self-organizing maps were used to determine expression patterns across protein trials.

Description
Signaling by the cytokine LIF and its downstream transcription factor, STAT3, prevents differentiation of pluripotent embryonic stem cells (ESCs) by opposing MAP kinase signaling. This contrasts with most cell types where STAT3 signaling induces differentiation. We find that STAT3 binding across the pluripotent genome is dependent upon Brg, the ATPase subunit of a specialized chromatin remodeling complex (esBAF) found in ESCs. Brg is required to establish chromatin accessibility at STAT3 binding targets, in essence preparing these sites to respond to LIF signaling. Moreover, Brg deletion leads to rapid Polycomb (PcG) binding and H3K27me3-mediated silencing of many Brg-activated targets genome-wide, including the target genes of the LIF signaling pathway. Hence, one crucial role of Brg in ESCs involves its ability to potentiate LIF signaling by opposing PcG. Contrary to expectations, Brg also facilitates PcG function at classical PcG target including all four Hox loci, reinforcing their repression in ESCs. These findings reveal that esBAF does not simply antagonize PcG, but rather, the two chromatin regulators act both antagonistically and synergistically with the common goal of supporting pluripotency.
Publication Title
esBAF facilitates pluripotency by conditioning the genome for LIF/STAT3 signalling and by regulating polycomb function.
