Description
Background: Tissue macrophages contribute to development and protection, both requiring appropriately timed and located source(s) of factors controlling growth, cell differentiation and migration. Goal: To understand the role of microglia (tissue macrophages of the central nervous system), in promoting neurodevelopment and controlling neuroinflammation. Summary of findings: We show that microglia fulfill both these roles. In contrast to adult cells, neonatal microglia show a unique neurogenic phenotype with stem cell-like potential. Neonatal microglia are protective against neuroinflammation, and their transplantation ameliorates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. A CD11c+ microglial subset predominates in primary myelinating areas of the developing brain and expresses genes for neuronal and glial survival, migration and differentiation. CD11c+ microglia are also found in clusters of repopulating microglia after experimental ablation and in neuroinflammation in adult mice, but despite some similarities, they do not recapitulate neurogenic neonatal microglia characteristics. Conclusions: We therefore identify a unique phenotype of neonatal microglia that deliver signals necessary for neurogenesis and myelination and suppress neuroinflammation. Overall design: The overall design was to compare transcriptomes of subsets of microglia isolated from neonatal mice, healthy adults, and adult mice with a neuroinflammatory disease (Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, EAE), and to compare anti-inflammatory function of adult and neonatal microglia. Microglia were isolated by cell-sorting based on surface phenotype, and RNAseq data was analyzed using WGCNA, GO and DAVID approaches. Expression of selected genes and pathways was confirmed by histology and flow cytometry. Functional analysis involved transfer of isolated microglia to the central nervous system of animals with EAE and evaluation of outcome. EAE = Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis

Description
We have cloned and characterized a fusion gene NUP98/HHEX1 resulting from t(7;10) from a patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). As NUP98/HHEX acts as an aberrant transcriptional activator, putative targets were searched upon transient expression of the fusion in primary murine bone marrow cells.

Description
The comparison of the cell-specific transcriptomes of bundle sheath (BS) and mesophyll (M) cells from successive developmental stages of maize leafs reveals that the number of genes preferentially transcribed in one cell type or the other varies considerably from the sink-source transition to mature photosynthetic stages. The number of differentially expressed (DE) genes is maximal at a stage well prior to full maturity, including those that encode key functions for C4 photosynthesis. The developmental dynamics of BS/M differential expression can be used to identify candidates for other C4-related functions and to simplify the identification of specific pathways members from otherwise complex gene families. The candidates for C4-related transcription factors identified with this developmental DE strategy overlap with those identified in studies using alternative strategies. Overall design: Nine day old third leaves of maize sections, located at -1 cm, +4 cm and +9 cm (leaf tip), relative to the sink-source transition, were collected. BS and M cells were captured from each section. There are two duplications for each section and each cell types. A total of 12 libraries were constructed for RNA-seq.

Description
Imatinib has become the current standard therapy for patients with chronic myelogenous leukaemia (CML). For a better understanding of the Imatinib-related molecular effects in vivo, we assessed gene expression profiles of Philadelphia Chromosome positive (Ph+) CD34+ cells from peripheral blood of 6 patients with de novo CML in chronic phase. After 7 days of treatment with Imatinib the Ph+ CD34+ cells were reassessed to look for changes in the transcriptome. The expression level of 303 genes was significantly different comparing the transcriptome of the Ph+ CD34+ cells before and after 7 days of Imatinib therapy (183 down-regulated, 120 up-regulated, lower bound 1.2-fold). For a substantial number of genes governing cell cycle and DNA replication, the level of expression significantly decreased (CDC2, RRM2, PCNA, MCM4). On the other hand, therapy with Imatinib was associated with an increase of genes related to adhesive interactions, such as L-selectin or CD44. A group of 8 genes with differential expression levels were confirmed using a gene specific quantitative real-time PCR. Thus, during the first week of treatment, Imatinib is preferentially counteracting the bcr-abl induced effects related to a disturbed cell cycle and defective adhesion of leukemic Ph+ CD34+ cells.
