View SamplesMesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are self-renewing multipotent cells which hold great potential in stem cell-based therapy. MSC can be derived from multiple adult tissues but require invasive harvesting and imply donor-to-donor differences. MSC derived from embryonic stem cells (ESC) may provide an alternative source not suffering from those limitations, but to what extend they correspond to the adult counterpart is not known. Here we characterized human ESC-derived MSC in-depth and compared them to human adult tissue-derived MSC (bone marrow BM-MSC) as well as to hESC using next-generation RNA sequencing. In MSC we observed enrichment of proteins involved in cell adhesion, wound healing, extracellular matrix generation, as well as vesicle-mediated transport and exosomes, with the latter pointing towards paracrine signaling. The enrichment and variety of developmental terms associated with MSC further suggest the support function in tissue regeneration. The observed differences between ESC-and adult tissue derived-MSC are similar in magnitude to those reported for MSC of different origin and the former may thus represent an alternative source for therapeutic applications.

View SamplesWe describe 9 CLL patients who underwent a spontaneous clinical regression. CD38 and ZAP-70 were negative in all cases. Immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IgVH) genes, mutated in all 7 evaluable patients, were restricted to the VH3 family in 6, with the usage of VH3-30 gene in 2. The light chain variable region genes were mutated in 6/8 cases, with the usage of V4-1 gene in 3. Microarray analysis of CLL cells revealed a distinctive genomic profile. The number of activated T lymphocytes expressing IFN-, TNF- and IL-4 was similar between CLL in spontaneous regression and healthy individuals.

View SamplesSince the role of cord blood (CB) regulatory T cells (Tregs) for the suppression of the allogeneic T-cell response is under investigation, we analyzed and compared the functional properties and gene expression profile of Tregs expanded from CB units or from the peripheral blood (PB) of helathy donors. Tregs were purified from 23 CB units and from the PB of 13 donors and expanded for 6 days with anti-CD3, anti-CD28 and IL-2. Immunophenotypic analyses were performed, and suppressor activity of expanded Tregs was measured in mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) cultures. The IL-10 production capacity was tested and gene expression profile experiments were performed on 6 Tregs from PB and 4 from CB. CB and PB Tregs had similar immunophenotypic features. Tregs from CB presented a higher expansion capacity and genomic characterization showed in CB-derived Tregs a significant enrichments of genes involved in cell proliferation, chromatin modification and regulation of gene expression in CB-derived Tregs. All samples were positive for the Foxp3 gene and protein after expansion. CB and PB expanded Tregs exerted a comparable and potent suppressive function of MLR and presented a high in vitro IL-10 production capacity. Gene profile analysis also revealed for PB Tregs a significant enrichments of genes involved in the adaptive immune response.

View SamplesThe dual leucine zipper kinase (DLK) is a mitogen-activated kinase kinase kinase that can activate the downstream cJun N terminal kinase (JNK) pathway (ref). We have previously reported that DLK is a positive regulator of the retrograde injury signaling and axon regeneration that unfolds after sciatic nerve injury (ref). Since DLK is required for activities of injury-associated transcription factors such as cJun and STAT3, we hypothesized that DLK is also necessary for the transcriptional responses to peripheral nerve injury. In the current study, we identify DLK-dependent transcriptome in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons using a sciatic nerve injury paradigm. The DEG analysis reveals that DLK regulates regeneration/injury-associated genes in both basal and injured conditions. By performing gene ontology analysis, we suggest functional annotations and the involved genes as regulatory components of the axonal regeneration program. Finally, our comparative analysis indicates that DLK is required for a specific retrograde signaling pathway that regulates a regeneration program shared between PNS and CNS models.
