Description
XBP1 is a transcription factor that is induced by unconventional splicing associated with endoplasmic reticulum stress and plays a role in development of liver and plasma cells. We previously reported that brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) leads to splicing of XBP1 mRNA in neurites, and that XBP1 is required for BDNF-induced neurite extension and branching. To search for the molecular mechanisms of how XBP1 plays a role in neural development, comprehensive gene expression analysis was performed in primary telencephalic neurons obtained from Xbp1 knockout mice at embryonic day 12.5. By searching for the genes induced by BDNF in wild type neurons but this induction was reduced in Xbp1 knockout mice, we found that upregulation of three GABAergic markers, somatostatin (Sst), neuropeptide Y (Npy), and calbindin (Calb1), were compromised in Xbp1 knockout neurons. Attenuated induction of Npy and Calb1 was confirmed by quantitative RT-PCR. In neurons lacking in Xbp1, upregulation of GABAergic markers was attenuated. Impaired BDNF-induced neurite extension in Xbp1 knockout neurons might be mediated by disturbed BDNF-induced differentiation of GABAergic interneurons.

Description
Hyperthermia (HT) treatments in combination with either chemotherapy, radiotherapy or both are used for patients with cancer in various organs. However, the acquisition of thermotolerance in cancer cells due to the increase in cytoprotective proteins attenuates the therapeutic effects of HT. BAG3 (BCL2-associated athanogene 3) is a cytoprotective protein that acts against various stresses including heat stress. Recently, we demonstrated that the inhibition of BAG3 improves cell death sensitivity to HT in cancer cells. However, a detailed molecular mechanism involved in the enhancement of HT sensitivity by BAG3-knockdown (KD) in cancer cells is unclear.

Description
The generation of properly functioning gametes in vitro, a key goal in developmental/reproductive biology, requires multi-step reconstitutions of complex germ cell development. Based on the logic of primordial germ cell (PGC)-specification, we demonstrate here the generation of PGC-like cells (PGCLCs) in mice with robust capacity for spermatogenesis from embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) through epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs), a cellular state highly similar to pre-gastrulating epiblasts, but distinct from epiblast stem cells (EpiSCs). The global transcription profiles, epigenetic reprogramming, and cellular dynamics during PGCLC induction from EpiLCs are a meticulous capture of those associated with PGC specification from the epiblasts. Furthermore, we identify Integrin-beta 3 and SSEA1 as markers that purify PGCLCs with spermatogenic capacity free from tumorigenic undifferentiated cells. With the reconstitution of PGC specification pathway from the naive inner cell mass state, our study defines a paradigm for the essential step of in vitro gametogenesis.

Description
The female germline undergoes a unique line of differentiation processes that endows totipotency to the egg. During these processes, biologically significant events such as meiosis and oocyte growth are controlled in an orderly manner, with any disorder causing infertility and developmental arrest of the next generation. Reconstitution in vitro of the entire process of oogenesis from pluripotent stem cells is a key achievement in stem cell biology and regenerative medicine, but a robust and reproducible culture system has not been established. Here, we report successful reconstitution in vitro throughout the entire process of oogenesis from pluripotent stem cells, yielding in vitro-produced eggs that gave rise to healthy pups. Moreover, the pluripotent stem lines were re-derived from the in vitro-generated eggs, thereby reconstituting one generation on a dish. This culture system will provide a unique platform for elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying totipotency and could open an avenue to producing vast numbers of eggs in vitro. Overall design: The transcriptomes of ES cells (ESCs), primordial germ cell-like cells at day 6 of differentiation (PGCLCs_d6), PGCLCs aggregated with gonadal somatic cells (PGCLCs_agg3), in vitro-produced primary oocytes in secondary follicles (vitro_2nd_fol_oocyte) and MII oocytes (vitro MII oocytes) are determined by RNA-seq analysis. For comparison, the transcriptomes of E12.5 PGCs (vivo_E12.5_PGCs), P8 primary oocytes (vivo_2nd_fol._oocyte) and MII oocytes (vivo_MII_oocyte) in vivo are also determined. Biologically triplicated (rep1-3) or duplicated (rep1-2) samples are sequnced simultaneously.

Description
Recent research hints at an underappreciated complexity in pre-miRNA processing and regulation. Global profiling of pre-miRNA and its potential to increase understanding of the pre-miRNA landscape is impeded by overlap with highly-expressed classes of other non-coding RNA. Here we present a dataset excluding these RNA before sequencing through locked nucleic acids (LNA), greatly increasing pre-miRNA sequence counts with no discernable effects on pre-miRNA or mature miRNA sequencing. Analysis of profiles generated in total, nuclear, and cytoplasmic cell fractions reveals pre-miRNAs are subject to a wide range of regulatory processes involving loci-specific 3'- and 5'-end variation entailing complex cleavage patterns with co-occurring polyuridylation. Additionally, examination of nuclear-enriched flanking sequences of pre-miRNA, particularly those derived from polycistronic miRNA transcripts, provides insight into miRNA and miRNA-offset (moRNA) production. Our findings point to particularly intricate regulation of the let-7 family, introduce novel and unify known forms of pre-miRNA regulation and processing, and shed new light on the byproducts of miRNA processing pathways. none provided

Description
The transcription factor c-MYC intron binding protein 1 (MIBP1) binds to various genomic regulatory regions, including intron 1 of c-MYC. This factor is highly expressed in post-mitotic neurons in the fetal brain and may be involved in various biological steps, such as neurological and immunological processes. In this study, we globally characterized the transcriptional targets of MIBP1 and proteins that interact with MIBP1. Microarray hybridization followed by Gene Set Enrichment Analysis revealed that genes involved in the pathways downstream of MYC, NF-B, and TGF- were downregulated when HEK293 cells stably overexpressed MIBP1. In silico transcription factor binding site analysis of the promoter regions of these downregulated genes showed that the NF-B binding site was the most overrepresented. The upregulation of genes known to be in the NF-B pathway after the knockdown of endogenous MIBP1 in HT1080 cells supports the view that MIBP1 is a downregulator of the NF-B pathway. We also confirmed the binding of the MIBP1 to the NF-B site. By immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry, we detected O-linked -N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) transferase (OGT) as a prominent binding partner of MIBP1. Analyses using deletion mutants revealed that a 154-amino acid region of MIBP1 was necessary for its OGT binding and O-GlcNAcylation. A luciferase reporter assay showed that NF-B-responsive expression was repressed by MIBP1, and stronger repression by MIBP1 lacking the 154-amino acid region was observed. Our results indicate that the primary effect of MIBP1 expression is the downregulation of the NF-B pathway, and that this effect is attenuated by O-GlcNAc signaling.
