Description
Treatment of severely refractory Crohns disease (CD) patients remains a clinical challenge. Recent studies show efficacy of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in these severely compromised patients. HSCT is thought to eliminate auto-reactive cells; however the mechanisms are incompletely understood. We followed a group of patients (n=18) receiving autologous HSCT, with 50% of them achieving endoscopic drug-free remission. To elucidate the mechanism driving efficacy we compared the immunological changes induced by HSCT in responders and non-responders.

Description
Treatment of severely refractory Crohn's disease (CD) patients remains a clinical challenge. Recent studies show the efficacy of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in these severely compromised patients. HSCT is thought to eliminate auto-reactive cells; however, no specific studies of immune reconstitution in CD patients are available. We studied a group of CD patients receiving autologous HSCT, with 50% of them achieving endoscopic drug-free remission. To elucidate the mechanism driving efficacy, we studied changes in the immune cell composition in tissue induced by HSCT. Overall design: Biopsy mRNA profiles of 14 CD patients undergoing HSCT were generated by deep sequencing, using HiSeq-4000 platform (Illumina, San Diego, CA).

Description
We used RNA sequencing to study gene expression in lymph node derived DCs from anaphylactic mice sensitized intranasally with the major peach allergen Pru p 3, during the acute reaction phase, induced intraperitoneally. In total, 237 genes changed significantly, 181 showing at least two-fold changes. Almost three quarters of these increased during anaphylaxis Overall design: 5 Female Balb/c mice aged 4-5 weeks, were sensitized to peach using intranasally administered Pru p 3 in combination with LPS and challenged intraperitoneally as described previously . 5 Littermates, treated with intranasally administered PBS (instead of Pru p 3 and LPS), and later given an intraperitoneal challenge as per the anaphylactic mice, were used for comparison.

Description
Current pipelines used to map genetrap insertion sites are based on inverse- or splinkerette-PCR methods, which despite their efficacy are prone to artifacts and do not provide information on the impact of the genetrap on the expression of the targeted gene. We developed a new method, which we named TrapSeq, for the mapping of genetrap insertions based on paired-end RNA sequencing. By recognizing chimeric mRNAs containing genetrap sequences spliced to an endogenous exon, our method identifies insertions that lead to productive trapping. Overall design: We conducted two independent screenings for sensitivity against 6-thioguanine (6TG) and an ATR inhibitor (ATRi). We applied our RNAseq-based pipeline (TrapSeq) to identify mutations that provide resistance to these reagents. Importantly, and besides its use for screenings, when applied to individual clones our method provides a fast and cost-effective way that not only identifies the insertion site of the genetrap but also reveals the impact of the insertion on the expression of the trapped gene. Please note that HAP1, haploid for all chromosomes, derives from near-haploid KBM7 parent line which was in turn obtained from a chronic myeloid leukemia patient in blast crisis phase (Carette et al. Nature 477:340-343, 2011).

Description
Dietary intervention constitutes a feasible approach for modulating metabolism and improving healthspan and lifespan. Methionine restriction (MR) delays the appearance of age-related diseases and increases longevity in normal mice. However, the effect of MR on premature aging remains to be elucidated. Here, we describe that MR extends lifespan in two different mouse models of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) by reversing the transcriptome alterations in inflammation and DNA-damage response genes present in this condition. Further, MR improves the lipid profile and alters the levels of bile acids, both in wild-type and in progeroid mice. Notably, treatment with the bile acid cholic acid improves healthspan and lifespan in vivo. These results suggest the existence of a metabolic pathway involved in the longevity extension achieved by MR and support the possibility of dietary interventions for treating progeria.

Description
Neural crest cells are a transient embryonic population, hence are neither present after bith and nor are they readily accesible for analysis. Therefore, little is known about the genetic networks that regulate NC especification, delamitation and migration from the dorsal neural tube to their final destination along the embryo.

Description
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are growth-promoting plant hormones that play a role in abiotic stress responses, but molecular modes that enable this activity remain largely unknown. Here we show that BRs participate in the regulation of freezing tolerance. BR signaling-defective mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana were hypersensitive to freezing before and after cold acclimation. The constitutive activation of BR signaling, in contrast, enhanced freezing resistance. Evidence is provided that the BR-controlled basic helixloophelix transcription factor CESTA (CES) can contribute to the constitutive expression of the C-REPEAT/DEHYDRATION-RESPONSIVE ELEMENT BINDING FACTOR (CBF) transcriptional regulators that control cold responsive (COR) gene expression. In addition, CBF-independent classes of BR-regulated COR genes are identified that are regulated in a BR- and CES-dependent manner during cold acclimation. A model is presented in which BRs govern different cold-responsive transcriptional cascades through the posttranslational modification of CES and redundantly acting factors. This contributes to the basal resistance against freezing stress, but also to the further improvement of this resistance through cold acclimation.
