Description
IL-17-producing CD8+ (Tc17)T cells are implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS), thereby representing a promising target for therapy. We found that dimethyl fumarate (DMF), a first-line medication for MS upregulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) by glutathione depletion in murine Tc17 cells, which limited IL-17 and diverted Tc17 cells towards cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) signature. DMF enhanced PI3K-AKT-FOXO1-T-bet- as well as STAT5-signaling leading to restricted permissive histone state at the Il17 locus. T-bet-deficiency, inhibiting PI3K-AKT, STAT5 or histone deacetylases prevented DMF-ROS-mediated IL-17 suppression. In MS patients with stable response, DMF suppressed IL-17 production by CD8+ T-cells and triggered diversion from Tc17 towards CTL signature along with enriched ROS-, PI3K-AKT-FOXO1-signaling, demonstrating comparable regulation across species. Accordingly, in the mouse model for MS, DMF limited Tc17-encephalitogenicity. Our findings disclose DMF-ROS-AKT-driven pathway, which selectively modulates Tc17 fate to ameliorate MS, thus opening avenue to develop markers and targets for specific therapy. Overall design: Examination of DMF-induced expression changes in 3 conditions, 3 samples each: murine TC17 cells without treatment as control group, murine Tc17 cells treated with DMF and murine Tc17 cells treated with DMF and Glutathione(GSH)

Description
Human umbilical cord Whartons jelly stem cells (WHJSC) are gaining attention as a possible clinical source of mesenchymal stem cells for use in cell therapy and tissue engineering due to their high accessibility, expansion potential and plasticity. However, the cell viability changes that are associated to sequential cell passage of these cells are not known. In this analysis, we have identified the gene expression changes that are associated to cell passage in WHJSC.

Description
Whsc1 gene codes for a SET domain-containing H3K36 dimethylase, whose activity has been suggested, in ex vivo cell culture experiments, to control many aspects of DNA and RNA processing (replication, repair, transcription, etc). Its precise function in vivo is still unclear. Here, we use RNA-seq transcriptome analysis to study the changes in gene expression in the absence of Whsc1. Our results show that, in the experimental system used, loss of Whsc1 caused massive changes in genes affecting many fundamental cellular processes, from cell cycle to ribosome synthesis, DNA repair, replication, etc. Overall design: Whsc1-KO mice are embryonic lethal. We therefore took hematopoietic cells from fetal liver of WT and Whsc1-KO embryo littermates and injected them in to lethally irradiated RAG1-KO recipients and allowed the generation of a full Whsc1-KO hematopoietic system. Then, WT and Whsc1-KO B cells were obtained from the spleen and stimulated with LPS to induce proliferation and class switch recombination. Flow cytometry and cell cycle analyses (among others) showed the existence of serious proliferative alterations in Whsc1-KO cells. Then, we performed paired-end RNAseq analyses of 7 independent WT and 6 independent Whsc1-KO biological replicates and we used these data to identify differentially expressed genes and pathways regulated by Whsc1 in B cells.

Description
The Endoplasmic Reticulum–Mitochondria Encounter Structure (ERMES) is a protein complex that tethers the two organelles and creates the physical basis for communication between them. ERMES functions in lipid and calcium exchange between the ER and mitochondria, mitochondrial protein import and maintenance of mitochondrial morphology and genome. Here we report that ERMES is also required for iron homeostasis. Loss of ERMES components activates an Aft1-dependent iron deficiency response even in iron-replete conditions, leading to accumulation of excess iron inside the cell. This function is independent of ERMES known roles in calcium regulation, phospholipid biosynthesis or mitochondrial biology. A mutation in the vacuolar protein sorting 13 (VPS13) gene that rescues the glycolytic phenotype of ERMES mutants suppresses the iron deficiency response and iron accumulation. Our study reveals that proper communication between the ER and mitochondria is required for appropriate maintenance of cellular iron levels. Overall design: various mutants

Description
The N-terminal tail of histone H2A shows evolutionary changes that parallel genome size and aid chromatin compaction. As genome size increases, so does the number of arginines. In contrast, serines corellate with small genomes. Examples for such changes are arginine in position 11 and serine in position 15.
