Description
Clonal cellular variance often confounds reproducibility of forward and reverse genetic studies. We developed combinatorial approaches for whole genome saturated mutagenesis using haploid murine ES cells to permit induction and reversion of genetic mutations. Using these systems, we created a biobank with over 100000 individual ES cell lines with repairable and genetically bar coded mutations targeting 16950 genes. This biobank termed “Haplobank” is freely available. In addition, we developed a genetic color coding system for rapid repair of mutations and direct functional validation in sister clones. Using this system, we report functional validation of essential ES cell genes. We also identified phospholipase16G as a key pathway for cytotoxicity of human rhinoviruses, the most frequent cause of the common cold. Moreover, we derived 3D blood vessel organoids from haploid ES cells, combining conditional mutagenesis in haploid ES cells with tissue engineering. We identified multiple novel genes, such as Connexin43/Gja1, in blood vessel formation and tip cell specification in vitro and also in vivo. Taken together, we develop a conditional homozygous ES cell resource for the community to empower controlled genetic studies in murine ES cells and tissues derived from it. Overall design: RNA-Seq was carried out using standard protocols. https://www.haplobank.at/ecommerce/control/haplobank_resource

Description
TFH and Th1 cells generated after viral or intracellular bacterial infections are critical for the control of infections and the development of immunological memories. However, the mechanisms that govern the choice of activated CD4 T cells to the two alternative fates remain unclear. Here, we found that reciprocal expression of TCF1 and Blimp1 between viral-specific TFH and Th1 cells started early after infection. TCF1 was intrinsically required for the differentiation of TFH cells. In the absence of TCF1, TFH cells failed to maintain their transcriptional and metabolic signatures, distinct from those in Th1 cells. Mechanistically, TCF1 functioned through forming negative feedback loops with IL-2 and Blimp1 signaling. Thus, we have demonstrated an essential role of TCF1 in TFH-cell differentiation.

Description
Genetic variation governs protein expression through both transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes. To investigate this relationship, we combined a multiplexed, mass spectrometry-based method for protein quantification with an emerging mouse model harboring extensive genetic variation from 8 founder strains. We collected genome-wide mRNA and protein profiling measurements to link genetic variation to protein expression differences in livers from 192 Diversity Outcross mice. Overall design: Illumina 100bp single-end liver RNA-seq from 192 male and female Diversity Outbred 26-week old mice raised on standard chow or high fat diet. Each sample was sequenced in 2x technical replicates across multiple flowcells. Samples were randomly assigned lanes and multiplexed at 12-24x.

Description
Imatinib has become the current standard therapy for patients with chronic myelogenous leukaemia (CML). For a better understanding of the Imatinib-related molecular effects in vivo, we assessed gene expression profiles of Philadelphia Chromosome positive (Ph+) CD34+ cells from peripheral blood of 6 patients with de novo CML in chronic phase. After 7 days of treatment with Imatinib the Ph+ CD34+ cells were reassessed to look for changes in the transcriptome. The expression level of 303 genes was significantly different comparing the transcriptome of the Ph+ CD34+ cells before and after 7 days of Imatinib therapy (183 down-regulated, 120 up-regulated, lower bound 1.2-fold). For a substantial number of genes governing cell cycle and DNA replication, the level of expression significantly decreased (CDC2, RRM2, PCNA, MCM4). On the other hand, therapy with Imatinib was associated with an increase of genes related to adhesive interactions, such as L-selectin or CD44. A group of 8 genes with differential expression levels were confirmed using a gene specific quantitative real-time PCR. Thus, during the first week of treatment, Imatinib is preferentially counteracting the bcr-abl induced effects related to a disturbed cell cycle and defective adhesion of leukemic Ph+ CD34+ cells.

Description
Mouse CD8+ T cells affected by ID3 (Inhibitor of DNA binding 3) display patterns of gene expression suggesting enhanced persistance and survival. In this study, we identified genes differentially expressed between ID32a transduced and mock transduced, and ID32a knockout and wild type mouse CD8+ T cells. Most prominent functions of differentially expressed genes include DNA replication-associated repair, maintenance of chromosome stability and mitotic cell divison machinery. Overall, these data suggest that ID3 acts in favor of maintained survival in CD8+ mouse T cells.

Description
Long-lived, self-renewing, multipotent T memory stem cells (TSCM) can trigger profound and sustained tumor regression but their rareness poses a major hurdle to their clinical application. Presently, clinically compliant procedures to generate relevant numbers of this T cell population are undefined. Here, we provide a strategy for deriving large numbers of clinical grade tumor-redirected TSCM cells starting from nave precursors. CD8+CD62L+CD45RA+ nave T cells enriched by streptamer-based serial positive selection were activated by CD3/CD28 engagement in the presence of IL-7, IL-21 and the glycogen synthase-3 inhibitor TWS119, and genetically engineered to express a CD19-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CD19-CAR). These conditions allowed for the generation of CD19-CAR modified TSCM cells that were phenotypically, functionally and transcriptomically equivalent to their naturally occurring counterpart. Compared with T cell products currently under clinical investigation, CD19-CAR modified TSCM cells exhibit enhanced metabolic fitness, persistence and anti-tumor activity against systemic acute lymphoblastic leukemia xenografts. Based on these findings, we have initiated a phase 1 clinical study to evaluate the activity of CD19-CAR modified TSCM in patients with B-cell malignancies refractory to prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Description
Effector cells for adoptive immunotherapy can be generated by in vitro stimulation of nave or memory subsets of CD8+ T cells. While the characteristics of CD8+ T cell subsets are well defined, the heritable influence of those populations on their effector cell progeny is not well understood. We studied effector cells generated from nave or central memory CD8+ T cells and found that they retained distinct gene expression signatures and developmental programs. Effector cells derived from central memory cells tended to retain their CD62L+ phenotype, but also to acquire KLRG1, an indicator of cellular senescence. In contrast, the effector cell progeny of nave cells displayed reduced terminal differentiation, and, following infusion, they displayed greater expansion, cytokine production, and tumor destruction. These data indicate that effector cells retain a gene expression imprint conferred by their nave or central memory progenitors, and they suggest a strategy for enhancing cancer immunotherapy.

Adoptively transferred effector cells derived from naive rather than central memory CD8+ T cells mediate superior antitumor immunity.

Description
Bone mineral density (BMD) is a strong predictor of osteoporotic fracture. It is also one of the most heritable disease-associated quantitative traits. As a result, there has been considerable effort focused on dissecting its genetic basis. Here, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in a panel of inbred strains to identify associations influencing BMD. This analysis identified a significant (P=3.1 x 10-12) BMD locus on Chromosome 3@52.5 Mbp that replicated in two seperate inbred strain panels and overlapped a BMD quantitative trait locus (QTL) previously identified in a F2 intercross. The association mapped to a 300 Kbp region containing four genes; Gm2447, Gm20750, Cog6, and Lhfp. Â Further analysis found that Lipoma HMGIC Fusion Partner (Lhfp) was highly expressed in bone and osteoblasts and its expression was regulated by local expression QTL (eQTL) in multiple tissues. A co-expression network analysis revealed that Lhfp was strongly connected to genes involved in osteoblast differentiation. To directly evaluate its role in bone, Lhfp deficient mice (Lhfp-/-) were created using CRISPR/Cas9. Consistent with genetic and network predictions, bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) from Lhfp-/- displayed increased osteogenic differentiation. Lfhp-/- mice also had elevated BMD due to increased cortical bone mass. In conclusion, we used GWAS and systems genetics in mice to identify Lhfp as a regulator of osteoblast activity and bone mass. Overall design: Bones and osteoblast-derived from bone marrow stromal cells were profiles using RNA-seq from CC0016/GeniUnc mice (N=3 biological replicates per sample type)
