Description
We found miR-125a was a key regulator that stabilizes the commitment and immunoregulatory capacity of Treg cells.To gain insights into the general functional features of miR-125a-deficient Treg cells, we performed a genome-wide gene array analysis on Treg population isolated from the spleens of 6 to 8-week-old miR-125a-deficient and WT mice

Description
The serine threonine kinase Stk40 has been shown to involve in mouse embryonic stem cell differentiation, pulmonary maturation and adipocyte differentiation. Here we report that targeted deletion of Stk40 leads to fetal liver hypoplasia and anemia in the mouse embryos. The reduction of erythrocytes in the fetal liver is accompanied by increased apoptosis and compromised erythroid maturation. Stk40-/- fetal liver cells have significantly reduced colony forming units (CFUs) capable of erythroid differentiation, including burst forming unit-erythroid (BFU-E), colony forming unit-erythroid (CFU-E), and CFU-granulocyte, erythrocyte, megakaryocyte and macrophage (CFU-GEMM), but not CFU-granulocyte/macrophages (CFU-GM). Purified Stk40-/- megakaryocyte-erythrocyte progenitors (MEPs) produced substantially fewer CFU-E colonies compared to control cells. Moreover, Stk40-/- fetal liver erythroblasts failed to form normal erythroblastic islands in association with wild type or Stk40-/- macrophages, indicating an intrinsic defect of Stk40-/- erythroblasts. Furthermore, the hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell pool is reduced in Stk40-/- fetal livers but still retains the multi-lineage reconstitution capacity. Finally, analysis of microarray data of E14.5 fetal liver cells suggests a potential role of aberrantly activated TNF- signaling in Stk40 depletion induced dyserythropoiesis with a concomitant increase in cleaved Caspase-3 and decrease in Gata1 proteins. Altogether, the identification of Stk40 as a regulator for fetal erythroid differentiation, maturation and survival provides new clues to the molecular regulation of erythropoiesis and related diseases.

Description
Light-controlled in situ synthesis of DNA microarrays (Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0) were performed to determine the altered gene expression. Affymetrix algorithm and multiple analysis comparison software were used for assessing gene expression differences, and mRNAs that increased or decreased in the brains of NP(-M)-treated mice relative to that in the brains of Blank-NP-treated mice were identified.

Description
Disruption of protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum triggers the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR), a transcriptional and translational control network designed to restore protein homeostasis. Central to the UPR is PERK phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of eIF2 (eIF2~P), which represses global translation coincident with preferential translation of mRNAs, such as ATF4 and CHOP, that serve to implement the UPR transcriptional regulation. In this study, we used sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation and a genome-wide microarray approach to measure changes in mRNA translation during ER stress. Our analysis suggests that translational efficiencies vary across a broad range during ER stress, with the majority of transcripts being either repressed or resistant to eIF2~P, while a notable cohort of key regulators are subject to preferential translation. From this latter group, we identify IBTKa as being subject to both translation and transcriptional induction during eIF2~P in both cell lines and a mouse model of ER stress. Translational regulation of IBTKalpha mRNA involves the stress-induced relief of two inhibitory uORFs in the 5'-leader of the transcript. Depletion of IBTKalpha by shRNA reduced viability of cultured cells coincident with increased caspase 3/7 cleavage, suggesting that IBTKalpha is a key regulator in determining cell fate during the UPR.

Description
Environmental stresses that disrupt protein homeostasis induce phosphorylation of eIF2, triggering repression of global protein synthesis coincident with preferential translation of ATF4, a transcriptional activator of the Integrated stress response (ISR). Depending on the extent of protein disruption, ATF4 may not be able to restore proteostatic control and instead switch to a terminal outcome that features elevated expression of the transcription factor CHOP (GADD153/DDIT3). The focus of this study was to define the mechanisms by which CHOP directs gene regulatory networks that determine cell fate. We find that in response to proteasome inhibition, CHOP induces the expression of a collection of genes encoding transcription regulators, including ATF5, which is preferentially translated during eIF2 phosphorylation. Transcriptional expression of ATF5 is directly activated by both CHOP and ATF4. Knock-down of ATF5 increased cell survival in response to proteasome inhibition, supporting the idea that both ATF5 and CHOP have pro-apoptotic functions. Transcriptome analyses of ATF5-dependent genes revealed targets involved in apoptosis, including, NOXA, which is important for inducing cell death during proteasome inhibition. This study suggests that the ISR features a feed-forward loop of stress induced transcriptional regulators, each subject to transcriptional and translational control that can switch cell fate towards apoptosis.
