Description
The overall goal of this project is to investigate the role of TGF-beta signaling in tissue-tissue interactions between myogenic precursors of craniofacial muscles and cranial neural crest cells (CNCCs). Here, we conducted gene expression profiling of the tongue bud from mice at embryonic day E13.5 with a CNCC-specific conditional inactivation of the TGF-beta receptor type 1 gene Alk5. These mice provide a model of microglossia as well as disrupted extraocular and masticatory muscle development, which are congenital birth defects commonly observed in several syndromic conditions.

Description
Equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) is the causative agent of a number of equine pathological states, including severe disease of the central nervous system, respiratory infections, and abortion storms. Our results showed that intranasal immunization with CpG-B oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) protects CBA mice from lethal EHV-1 challenge. IFN-γ and seven interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) were upregulated 39.4- to 260.3-fold at 8 h postchallenge in the lungs of RacL11-challenged mice that had been immunized with CpG-B ODN. Treatment with 20 ng/ml of IFN-γ reduced EHV-1 yield by 100-fold in MH-S at 4 days post-VZV infection compared to that of untreated cells. However, IFN-γ reduced virus yield by only 2-fold in and mouse fibroblast L-M cells. To identify IFN-γ-stimulated genes that inhibit EHV-1 replication, Affymetrix microarray analyses were performed with IFN-γ-treated MH-S and L-M cells. In MH-S cells, IFN-γ upregulated 551 genes and down-regulated 136 genes as compared to those of untreated cells. In L-M cells, IFN-γ upregulated 225 genes and downregulated 2 genes. Nine genes associated with innate immune response were significantly upregulated only in MH-S cells. Five antiviral ISGs MX1, SAMHD1, NAMPT, TREX1, and DDX60 were upregulated 3.2- to 18.1-fold only in MH-S cells. These results suggest that CpG-B ODN may be used as a prophylactic agent in horses.

The role of Gata2 in regulating uterine function including fertility, implantation, decidualization and P4 signaling in the mouse was investigated by the conditional ablation of Gata2 in the uterus using the (PR-cre) mouse and ChIP-seq for in vivo GATA2 binding sites in the murine uterus upon acute P4 administration.

Description
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), one of the most common polygenic diseases, is characterized by a chronic, progressive inflammation mainly in joints and has an unknown etiology. Numerous studies have revealed the significance of cytokines TNF and IL-1 in the onset and progression of RA. Due to the complexity of interactions among different cytokines and immune cells, little is known about the precise molecular mechanisms underlying RA. In this study, oligonucleotide microarray analysis and a mouse model of RA, IL-1 receptor antagonist deficient mice were used to address this issue. Two hundred and ninety transcripts were found to be dysregulated greater than or equal to 2-fold in the diseased mice. Phase-specific gene expression changes were identified, including early increase and late decrease of heat shock protein coding genes and Cyr61. Moreover, common gene expression changes were also observed, especially the upregulation of paired-Ig-like receptor A (Pira) in both early and late phases of arthritis. We conclude that common and distinct gene expression change patterns that were identified globally may represent novel opportunities for better control of RA through early diagnosis and development of alternative therapeutic strategies.

Description
Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death. Genome sequencing of lung tumors from patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma has identified SMAD4 to be frequently mutated. Here we used a novel mouse model to determine the molecular mechanisms regulated by loss of Smad4 which lead to lung cancer progression. Mice with ablation of Pten and Smad4 in airway epithelium developed metastatic adenosquamous tumors. Comparative transcriptomic and in vivo cistromic analyses determined that loss of PTEN and SMAD4 resulted in activation of the ELF3 and the ErbB2 pathway due to decreased ERRFI1s expression, a negative regulator of ERBB2 in mice and human cells. The combinatorial inhibition of ErbB2 and Akt signaling attenuated tumor progression and cell invasion, respectively. Expression profiles analysis of human lung tumors substantiated the importance of the ErbB2/Akt/ELF3 signaling pathway as both prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic drug targets for treating lung cancer.

Description
After positive selection in the thymus, the newly generated single positive (SP) thymocytes are phenotypically and functionally immature and undergo apoptosis upon antigen stimulation. In the thymic medullary microenvironment, SP cells progressively acquire immunocompetence. Negative selection to remove autoreactive T cells also occur at this stage. We have defined four subsets of CD4 SP, namely, SP1, SP2, SP3, and SP4 that follow a functional maturation program and a sequential emergence during mouse ontogeny.
