Description
In the adult mammalian testis, spermatogenic differentiation starts from a minute population of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). SSCs are generated after birth from the fetal gonocytes, themselves derived from the primordial germ cells (PGCs), which are specified during the first days after implantation. Transcriptome profiling of purified preparations evidenced the preferential accumulation in SSCs of transcripts of PU.1 (Sfpi1), a regulatory gene previously identified in hematopoietic progenitors. In situ immunolabeling and RNA determination showed a complex pattern of expression in the adult testis, first in SSCs and early spermatogonia followed by de novo expression in pachytene spermatocytes.

Description
CD4+ T cell differentiation into multiple T helper lineages is critical for optimal adaptive immune responses. This report identified a novel intrinsic mechanism by which PD-1 signaling imparted regulatory phenotype to FoxP3+ Th1 cells (denoted as Tbet+iTregPDL1 cells) and iTregs. Tbet+iTregPDL1 cells were capable of preventing inflammation in murine models of experimental colitis and experimental graft versus host disease. PDL-1 binding to PD-1 imparted regulatory function to Tbet+iTregPDL1 cells and iTregs by specifically downregulating an endolysosomal protease asparaginyl endopeptidase (AEP)

Description
Remodeling of chromatin accessibility is necessary for successful reprogramming of fibroblasts to neurons. However, it is still not fully known which transcription factors can induce a neuronal chromatin accessibility profile when overexpressed in fibroblasts. To identify such transcription factors, we here used ATAC-sequencing to generate differential chromatin accessibility profiles between human fibroblasts and iNeurons, an in vitro neuronal model system obtained by overexpression of Neurog2 in induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). We found that the ONECUT transcription factor sequence motif was strongly associated with differential chromatin accessibility between iNeurons and fibroblasts. All three ONECUT transcription factors associated with this motif (ONECUT1, ONECUT2 and ONECUT3) induced neuronal morphology and expression of neuronal genes within two days of overexpression in fibroblasts. We observed widespread remodeling of chromatin accessibility; in particular, we found that chromatin regions that contain the ONECUT motif were in- or lowly accessible in fibroblasts and became accessible after the overexpression of ONECUT1, ONECUT2 or ONECUT3. There was substantial overlap with iNeurons, still, many regions that gained accessibility following ONECUT overexpression were not accessible in iNeurons. Our study highlights the potential of ONECUT transcription factors for direct neuronal reprogramming. Overall design: Each RNA-Seq experiment was performed in duplicate (library constructed from different wells of the same cell line in the same cell culture experiment). Bclxl controls were generated for the overexpression. experiments.

Description
Cells producing adrenalin are largely derived from nerve-associated Schwann cell precursors via an intermediate progenitor “bridge” cell. We demonstrate that large numbers of chromaffin cells arise from peripheral glial stem cells, termed Schwann cell precursors (SCPs) Overall design: SCPs migrate along the visceral motor nerve to the vicinity of the forming adrenal gland where they detach from the nerve and form post-synaptic neuroendocrine chromaffin cells. An intricate molecular logic drives two sequential phases of gene expression, one unique for a distinct transient cellular state and another for cell-type specification. Subsequently, these programs downregulate SCP- and upregulate chromaffin-cell-gene networks. The adrenal medulla forms through limited cell expansion and requires the recruitment of numerous SCPs. Thus, peripheral nerves serve as a stem cell niche for neuroendocrine system development.

Hek293 cells were metabolically labelled using 4-thiouracil as described in (Schwalb et al, Science. 2016 Jun 3;352(6290):1225-8) but without fragmentation, and then bulk RNA was prepared for sequencing using the STRT method (Islam et al, Genome Res. 2011 Jul;21(7):1160-7). Samples were incubated in duplicate for 5, 15 and 30 minutes and included an unlabeled control representing the steady-state expression state. Overall design: 2 samples each of 4 incubation times, 2 cDNA preparations, 2 tagmentation replicates, and 2 biological replicates

Description
Purpose: The goals of this study are to compare transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) in pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasm (PanIN) cells exposed to tobacco-specific nitrosamine 4-(methyl nitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) and to examine the upregulated pathways. Overall design: Methods: Total RNA was isolated from PanIN cells treated with tobacco specific nitrosamine 4-(methyl nitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) for 5 and 50 days. Samples were processed for RNA-seq using standard methods on the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. Sequencing was performed in two multiplexed lanes of 100-bp single-end sequencing, which resulted in 75 million mappable reads per lane. The Illumina pipeline was used for base calling and quality filtering of sequence reads. Transcript assembly and abundance estimates of transcripts in fragments per kilobase of exon per million fragments mapped (FPKM) were performed by Cufflinks. Significant differences in total gene and transcript expression, splice site, transcription start site (TSS) and promoter usage were determined using a false discovery rate (FDR)-adjusted P-value. This study provides a framework for understanding transcriptional changes when pancreas cells exposed to tobacco specific nitrosamine.

Description
The ability to assign expression patterns to individual cell types that constitute a tissue is a major challenge in RNA expression analysis. This especially applies to brain given the plethora of different cells coexisting in that tissue. Here, we derived cell-type specific transcriptome signatures from existing single cell RNA data and integrated these signatures with a newly generated dataset of expression (bulk RNA-seq) of the postnatal developing hippocampus. This integrated analysis allowed us to provide a comprehensive and unbiased prediction of the differentiation drivers for 10 different hippocampal cell types and describe how the different cell types interact to support crucial developmental stages. Our integrated analysis provides a reliable resource of predicted differentiation drivers and insight into the multifaceted aspects of the cells in hippocampus during development. Overall design: 21 RNA-seq samples. For the stages E15, P1, P7, P15, and P30, there are respectively 3, 4, 3, 3, and 6 RNA-seq biological replica (total 19). One RNA-seq sample has two technical replica.

Description
Saccharomyces cerevisiae flocculation occurs when fermentable sugars are limiting and is therefore considered as a way to enhance the survival chance of Flo-expressing yeast cells. In this paper, the role of Flo1p in mating was demonstrated by showing that the mating efficiency, which contributes to the increased survival rate as well by generating genetic variability, is increased when cells flocculate. This was revealed by liquid growth experiments in a low shear environment and differential transcriptome analysis of FLO1 expressing cells compared to the non-flocculent wild-type cells. The results show that a floc provides a uniquely organized multicellular ultrastructure that provides a suitable microenvironment to induce and perform cell conjugation.
