Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Mutations in the enzymes IDH1 and IDH2 have been identified in a wide variety of tumors like glioma, chondrosarcoma, thyroid cancer, lymphoma, melanoma, and in acute myeloid leukemia. Mutated IDH1/2 produces the metabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG), which interferes with epigenetic regulation of gene expression, and thus may promote tumorigenesis.
Publication Title

Description
When macrophages encounter pathogens, they transiently induce an orchestrated cascade of pro- and anti-inflammatory genes. We systematically analyzed the contribution of translational regulation to the early phase of macrophage activation. While the expression of most cytokines is regulated by changes in mRNA levels, de-repression of translation was found to permit expression of many feedback inhibitors of the inflammatory response. This includes NF-kB inhibitors (IkBd, IkBz, Nr4a1, Ier3), a p38 MAPK antagonist (Dusp1) and post-transcriptional suppressors of cytokine expression (TTP and Zc3h12a). Ier3 is tightly co-regulated with TNF at the level of mRNA abundance and translation. Macrophages lacking Ier3 show reduced survival upon activation, indicating that induction of Ier3 is required to protect macrophages from lipopolysaccharide-induced cell death. Our analysis reveals an important role of translational regulation in the resolution of inflammation and macrophage survival.

Description
When macrophages encounter pathogens, they transiently induce an orchestrated cascade of pro- and anti-inflammatory genes. To obtain a precise picture of transcriptome-wide mRNA expression patterns, we performed RNA-Seq of total RNA at a high temporal resolution during the first two hours of macrophage activation. We systematically analyzed the contribution of translational regulation to the early phase of macrophage activation. While the expression of most cytokines is pre-dominanatly regulated by changes in mRNA levels, de-repression of translation was found to permit expression of many feedback inhibitors of the inflammatory response. Overall design: Expression profiles of LPS-treated Raw264.7 cells (0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90 and 120 min after stimulation) were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2000.

Description
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of histones exert fundamental roles in regulating gene expression. During development, groups of PTMs are constrained by unknown mechanisms into combinatorial patterns, which facilitate transitions from uncommitted embryonic cells into differentiated somatic cell lineages. Repressive histone modifications such as H3K9me3 or H3K27me3 have been investigated in detail, but the role of H4K20me3 in development is currently unknown. Here we show that Xenopus laevis Suv4-20h1 and h2 histone methyltransferases (HMTases) are essential for induction and differentiation of the neuroectoderm. Morpholino-mediated knockdown of the two HMTases leads to a selective and specific downregulation of genes controlling neural induction, thereby effectively blocking differentiation of the neuroectoderm. Global transcriptome analysis supports the notion that these effects arise from the transcriptional deregulation of specific genes rather than widespread, pleiotropic effects. Interestingly, morphant embryos fail to repress the Oct4-related Xenopus gene Oct-25. We validate Oct-25 as direct target of xSu4-20h enzyme-mediated gene repression, showing by chromatin immunoprecipitaton that it is decorated with the H4K20me3 mark downstream of the promoter in normal, but not in double-morphant, embryos. Since knockdown of Oct-25 protein significantly rescues the neural differentiation defect in xSuv4-20h double-morphant embryos, we conclude that the epistatic relationship between Suv4- 20h enzymes and Oct-25 controls the transit from pluripotent to differentiation-competent neural cells. Consistent with these results in Xenopus, murine Suv4-20h1/h2 double-knockout embryonic stem (DKO ES) cells exhibit increased Oct4 protein levels before and during EB formation, and reveal a compromised and biased capacity for in vitro differentiation, when compared to normal ES cells. Together, these results suggest a regulatory mechanism, conserved between amphibian and mammals, in which H4K20me3-dependent restriction of specific POU-V genes directs cell fate decisions, when embryonic cells exit the pluripotent state.

Description
In order to understand if early epigenetic mechanisms instruct the long-term behaviour of neural stem cells (NSCs) and their progeny, we examined the protein Uhrf1 as it is highly expressed in NSCs of the developing brain and rapidly downregulated upon differentiation. Conditional deletion of Uhrf1 in the developing cerebral cortex resulted in rather normal proliferation and neurogenesis but severe postnatal neurodegeneration. During development, deletion of Uhrf1 resulted in global DNA hypomethylation with a strong activation of the IAP family of endogenous retroviral elements, accompanied by an increase in hydroxy methyl cytosine. Downregulation of Tet enzymes rescued the IAP activation in Uhrf1 cKO cells, suggesting an antagonistic interplay between Uhrf1 and Tet on IAP regulation. As IAP upregulation persists into postnatal stages in the conditional Uhrf1 KO mice, our data show the lack of means to repress IAPs in differentiating neurons that normally never express Uhrf1. The high load of viral proteins and other transcriptional dysregulation ultimately lead to extensive postnatal neurodegeneration. Taken together, these data show that early developmental NSC factors can have long-term effects in neuronal differentiation and survival. Moreover, it highlights how specific the consequences of widespread changes in DNA methylation are for certain classes of retroviral elements. Overall design: Transcriptome analysis in control vs. Uhrf1-deficient brain
