Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
Memory B cell responses are more rapid and of greater magnitude than are primary antibody responses. The mechanisms by which these secondary responses are eventually attenuated remain unknown. We demonstrate that the transcription factor ZBTB32 limits the rapidity and duration of antibody recall responses. ZBTB32 is highly expressed by mouse and human memory B cells, but not by their nave counterparts. Zbtb32-/- mice mount normal primary antibody responses to T-dependent antigens. However, Zbtb32-/- memory B cell-mediated recall responses occur more rapidly and persist longer than do control responses. Microarray analyses demonstrate that Zbtb32-/- secondary bone marrow plasma cells display elevated expression of genes that promote cell cycle progression and mitochondrial function relative to wild-type controls. BrdU labeling and adoptive transfer experiments confirm more rapid production and a cell-intrinsic survival advantage of Zbtb32-/- secondary plasma cells relative to wild-type counterparts. ZBTB32 is therefore a novel negative regulator of antibody recall responses.

Description
To gain insight into the signaling pathway(s) required for ABL1/ABL2-dependent bone metastasis, we evaluated the consequences of single or double inactivation of ABL1 and ABL2 on the transcriptome of breast cancer cells. Double ABL1/ABL2 knockdown was required to decrease the levels of p-CrKL by more than 90%, indicative of inactivation of the endogenous ABL kinases. To examine the consequences of depleting the ABL kinases on the transcriptome of metastatic breast cancer cells we employed next generation sequencing (RNAseq) analysis. We found that 180 genes were significantly down-regulated and 40 genes were significantly up-regulated in ABL1/ABL2 knockdown cells. Overall design: Four samples were analyzed control, Abl single knockdown, Arg single knockdown, Abl/Arg double knockdown. Experiments were performed in triplicate.
Publication Title
ABL kinases promote breast cancer osteolytic metastasis by modulating tumor-bone interactions through TAZ and STAT5 signaling.

Description
AGO-PAR-CLIP was employed to identify microRNA binding sites in BCBL-1, a Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) infected B-cell line and DG75, a KSHV negative B-cell line as a control. By using our novel computational method (PARma) and differential analysis of PAR-CLIP data, highly accurate target sites of KSHV microRNAs can be defined. Overall design: Examination of microRNA target sites in two different cell lines using replicate PAR-CLIP experiments

Description
We analyzed small RNAs from three mammalian species, and found that in all these species piRNA-directed targeting is accompanied by the generation of short sequences that have a very precisely defined length and a specific spatial relationship with the guide piRNAs. Overall design: small RNA-seq of testes lysate (beta-eliminated)

Description
In mice, seminal fluid elicits an inflammation-like response in the female genital tract that activates immune adaptations to advance the likelihood of conception and pregnancy. Here we examined whether similar changes in leukocyte and cytokine parameters occur in the human cervix in response to the male partners seminal fluid. After a period of abstinence in proven-fertile women, duplicate sets of biopsies were taken from the ectocervix in the peri-ovulatory period and again 48 h later, 12 h after unprotected vaginal coitus, vaginal coitus with use of a condom, or no coitus. One pair of first biopsy and second biopsy RNA samples from each treatment group were reverse transcribed into cDNA and hybridized to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays. A total of 713 probe sets were identified as differentially expressed (fold change >2) between first and second biopsies after unprotected coitus, with 436 genes upregulated and 277 genes downregulated. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis revealed that gene pathways including inflammatory response, immune response, immune cell trafficking, cellular movement and antigen presentation were significantly affected by seminal fluid exposure. Amongst these were genes encoding several chemokines which target granulocytes, monocyte/macrophages, dendritic cells and lymphocytes, proinflammatory cytokines and regulators of cytokine synthesis, prostaglandin pathway gene including PTGS2; COX-2) and several matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Of these genes, no change or a substantially smaller change was seen between first and second biopsies obtained after coitus with condom use, or abstinence. An increase in CSF2, IL6, IL8 and IL1A expression was confirmed by qRT-PCR in larger sets of duplicate biopsies (n=6-7 per group). We conclude that seminal fluid introduced at intercourse elicits expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines which underpins the accompanying recruitment of macrophages, dendritic cells and memory T cells. The leukocyte and cytokine environment induced in the cervix by seminal fluid appears competent to initiate adaptations in the female immune response that promote fertility. This response is also relevant to transmission of sexually transmitted pathogens, and potentially susceptibility to cervical metaplasia.
