Description
This study focus a comparative toxicogenomic analysis of the effects of four herbicides (alachlor, ALA, S-metolachlor, S-MET, diuron, DIU, and MCPA-methyl ester, MCPA-ME), one insecticide (carbofuran, CAB), and one fungicide (pyrimethanil, PYR), in the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to predict potential cytotoxic effects of these xenobiotics while providing mechanistic clues possibly relevant for experimentally less accessible non-target eukaryotes. The six model pesticides selected have been used worldwide in agricultural activities, at the present time or in the past, and have different modes of action on their target-organisms. Moreover, some of them are currently in Annex 1 of EC Directive 1107/2009 (repealing 91/414), that is they are in use in the EU, but having some ecotoxicological concerns (e.g. S-MET, PYR, MCPA-ME), others have their use restricted and/or are priority substances under the Water Framework Directive (e.g. ALA, DIU), and one was banned (e.g. CAB).

Description
Plants regulate their time to flowering by gathering information from the environment. Photoperiod and temperature are among the most important environmental variables. Suboptimal, but not near-freezing, temperatures regulate flowering through the thermosensory pathway, which overlaps with the autonomous pathway. Here we show that ambient temperature regulates flowering by two genetically distinguishable pathways, one that requires TFL1 and another that requires ELF3. The delay in flowering time observed at lower temperatures was partially suppressed in single elf3 and tfl1 mutants, whereas double elf3 tfl1 mutants were insensitive to temperature. tfl1 mutations abolished the temperature response in cryptochrome mutants that are deficient in photoperiod perception, but not in phyB mutants that have a constitutive photoperiodic response. Contrary to tfl1, elf3 mutations were able to suppress the temperature response in phyB mutants, but not in cryptochrome mutants. The gene expression profile revealed that the tfl1 and elf3 effects are due to the activation of different sets of genes and identified CCA1 and SOC1/AGL20 as being important cross talk points. Finally, genome-wide gene expression analysis strongly suggests a general and complementary role for ELF3 and TFL1 in temperature signalling.

Description
Group living animals must be able to express different behavior profiles depending on their social status. This implies that the same genotype may translate into different behavioral phenotypes through socially driven differential gene expression. Here we show for the first time that what triggers the switch between status-specific neurogenomic states is not the objective structure of the social interaction but rather the subjects perception of its outcome. For this purpose we had male zebrafish fight either a real opponent or their own image on a mirror. Massive changes in the brain transcriptome were observed in real opponent fighters, which experience either a victory or a defeat. In contrast, mirror fighters, which had no information on fight outcome despite expressing aggressive behavior, failed to activate a neurogenomic response. These results indicate that, even in cognitively simple organisms such as zebrafish, neurogenomic responses underlying changes in social status rely on cognitive appraisal.
Publication Title
Assessment of fight outcome is needed to activate socially driven transcriptional changes in the zebrafish brain.

Description
Two aspects of light are very important for plant development: the length of the light phase or photoperiod and the quality of incoming light. Photoperiod detection allows plants to anticipate the arrival of the next season, whereas light quality, mainly the red to far-red ratio (R:FR), is an early signal of competition by neighbouring plants. phyB represses flowering by antagonising CO at the transcriptional and post-translational levels. A low R:FR decreases active phyB and consequently increases active CO, which in turn activates the expression of FT, the plant florigen. Other phytochromes like phyD and phyE seem to have redundant roles with phyB. PFT1, the MED25 subunit of the plant Mediator complex, has been proposed to act in the light-quality pathway that regulates flowering time downstream of phyB. However, whether PFT1 signals through CO and its specific mechanism are unclear. Here we show that CO-dependent and -independent mechanisms operate downstream of phyB, phyD and phyE to promote flowering, and that PFT1 is equally able to promote flowering by modulating both CO-dependent and -independent pathways. Our data are consistent with the role of PFT1 as an activator of CO transcription, and also of FT transcription, in a CO-independent manner. Our transcriptome analysis is also consistent with CO and FT genes being the most important flowering targets of PFT1. Furthermore, comparison of the pft1 transcriptome with transcriptomes after fungal and herbivore attack strongly suggests that PFT1 acts as a hub, integrating a variety of interdependent environmental stimuli, including light quality and jasmonic acid-dependent defences.

Description
Dengue virus (DENV) infection is one of the most serious public health problems worldwide. A recent dengue outbreak in Paraguay (2007-2009) presented unusual manifestations such as hepatitis, encephalitis, pulmonary as well as cardiac disorders associated with 50% of deaths caused by dengue in the country. Despite the knowledge on inflammatory responses observed during the course of disease, the role of innate immune cells in the control of virus replication influencing clinical outcome is poorly defined. Using two clinical isolates of the virus, a non-fatal case of classical DF (DENV3/290) and a fatal case of DF with visceral complications (DENV3/5532), we sought to determine the profile of dengue infection in human dendritic cell, a major innate immune cell population. Compared to classical DENV3/290, the strain DENV3/5532 displayed higher replicative ability in mdDCs. In addition, DENV3/5532 was found to induce elevated production of pro-inflammatory cytokines associated with higher rates of programmed cell death. The observed phenotype was due to viral replication in mdDCs and TNF appeared to display a protective effect on virus-induced mdDCs apoptosis. These results suggest that the fatal case DENV3/5532 isolate modulates dendritic cell survival as well as inflammatory mediators synthesis.
