Description
Tissue repair is a subset of a broad repertoire of IL-4/IL-13-dependent host responses during helminth infections. Here, we show that IL-4/IL-13 alone were not sufficient, but IL-4/IL-13 together with apoptotic cells induced the tissue repair program in macrophages. Genetic ablation of sensors of apoptotic cells impaired the proliferation of tissue-resident macrophages and induction of anti-inflammatory/tissue repair genes in the lung following helminth infection or the damage caused by induction of colitis in the gut. In contrast, recognition of apoptotic cells was dispensable for cytokine-dependent induction of pattern recognition receptor, cell adhesion or chemotaxis genes in macrophages. Detection of apoptotic cells can therefore spatially compartmentalize or prevent premature or ectopic activity of pleiotropic, soluble cytokines, such as IL-4/IL-13. Overall design: RNA sequencing of lung resident macrophages from WT and Axl-/-Mertk-/- mice upon infection with N. brasiliensis

Description
Toolsets available for in-depth analysis of scRNAseq datasets by biologists with little informatics experience is limited. Here we describe an informatics tool (PyMINEr) that fully automates cell type identification, cell type-specific pathway analyses, graph theory-based analysis of gene regulation, and detection of autocrine/paracrine signaling networks in silico. We applied PyMINEr to interrogate human pancreatic islet scRNAseq datasets and discovered several features of co-expression graphs including: concordance of scRNAseq-graph structure with both protein-protein interactions and 3D-genomic architecture; association of high connectivity and low expression genes with cell type-enrichment; and potential for graph-structure to clarify potential etiologies of enigmatic disease-associated variants. We further created a consensus co-expression network and autocrine/paracrine signaling networks within and across islet cell types from 7-datasets. PyMINEr correctly identified changes in BMP/WNT signaling associated with cystic fibrosis pancreatic acinar-cell loss. This proof-of-principle study demonstrates that the PyMINEr framework will be a valuable resource for scRNAseq analyses. Overall design: Human islets were obtained from the integrated islet distribution program (IIDP), cultured overnight, then prepared for scRNAseq via the Fluidigm C1 platform. RNAseq was perfromed on Illumina HiSeq 2500.

Description
Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) act as potent natural hypolipidemics and are linked to many health benefits in humans and in animal models. Mice fed long-term a high fat diet, in which medium-chain alpha linoleic acid (ALA) was partially replaced by long-chain docosahexaenoic (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic (EPA) fatty acids, showed reduced accumulation of body fat and prevention of insulin resistance, besides increased mitochondrial beta-oxidation in white adipose tissue and decreased plasma lipids. ALA, EPA and DHA all belong to PUFA of n-3 series. The intestine is a gatekeeper organ for ingested lipids. To examine the potential contribution of the intestine in the beneficial effects of EPA and DHA, this study assessed gene expression changes using whole genome microarray analysis on small intestinal scrapings. The main biological process affected was lipid metabolism. Fatty acid uptake, peroxisomal and mitochondrial beta-oxidation, and omega-oxidation of fatty acids were all increased. Quantitative real time PCR and intestinal fatty acid oxidation measurements ([14C(U)]-palmitate) confirmed significant gene expression differences in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, no major changes in the expression of lipid metabolism genes were observed in colonic scrapings. In conclusion, we show that marine n-3 fatty acids regulate small intestinal gene expression patterns. Since this organ contributes significantly to whole organism energy use, this adaptation of the small intestine may contribute to the complex and observed beneficial physiological effects of these natural compounds under conditions that will normally lead to development of obesity and diabetes.

Description
Autophagy is critical for protecting HSCs from metabolic stress. Here, we used a genetic approach to inactivate autophagy in adult HSCs by deleting the Atg12 gene. We show that loss of autophagy causes accumulation of mitochondria and an oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS)-activated metabolic state, which drives accelerated myeloid differentiation likely through epigenetic deregulations rather than transcriptional changes, and impairs HSC self-renewal activity and regenerative potential.

Description
Multipotent stromal cells (MSC) and their osteoblastic lineage cell (OBC) derivatives are part of the bone marrow (BM) niche and contribute to hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) maintenance. During myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) development, MSCs are stimulated to overproduce functtionally altered OBCs, which accumulate in the BM cavity as myelofibrotic cells. These MPN-expanded OBCs, in turn, impair the maintenance of normal HSCs but not of leukemic stem cells.
