Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
Two critical events that are required for normal transition from fetal to extrauterine life are development of the alveoli that allow for efficient gas exchange in the lung and relaxation of the pulmonary vascular smooth muscle. Patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) have abnormal lung and pulmonary vascular development that results in a lethal combination of lung hypoplasia and pulmonary hypertension. To better understand the mechanisms responsible for abnormal lung and pulmonary vascular development and function we generated Pbx1/2 conditional knockout mice that lack Pbx1 and Pbx2 expression in the lung mesenchyme. Pbx1 has previously been shown to be required for normal diaphragm development, however its role in alveologenesis, and the mechanisms responsible for pulmonary hypertension, has not been studied. We found that Pbx1/2 CKO mice have failure of alveologenesis and die of severe pulmonary hypertension by 2 to 3 weeks of age. In order to better understand the downstream genetic mis-regulation caused by deletion of Pbx1/2, and identify their potential transcriptional targets, we carried out transcriptional profiling of Pbx1/2 CKO and control mice starting at postnatal day 3 (P3), when a histological phenotype first becomes apparent, and then working back to the time of birth (P0), and embryonic day 14 (E14) when the pulmonary vascular smooth muscle is developing.

Description
Spinal cord injury leads to impaired motor and sensory functions. After spinal cord injury there is a an initial phase of hypo-reflexia followed by a developing hyper-reflexia, often termed spasticity. Previous studies have suggested a relationship between the reappearence of plateau potentials in motor neurons and the development of spasticity after spinalization. To understand the molecular mechanism behind this phenomenon we examined the transcriptional response of the motor neurons after spinal cord injury.

Previous studies have suggested a relationship between the reappearence of plateau potentials in motor neurons and the development of spasticity after spinalizaion.

Description
We isolated and selected intestinal adenoma organoids from Apcmin/+; Rosa26LSL-TdTomato; Prox1-CreERT2 mice. After the selection procedure without growth factors, we induced CreERT2 activity and the transcription of tdTomato to label Prox1+ cells by 300 nM 4-hydroxytamoxifen for 16h. tdTomato+ (Prox1+) and tdTomato- cells (enriched for Prox1- cells) were FACS sorted and total RNA was isolated.

Description
Mammalian epidermal stem cells maintain homeostasis of skin epidermis and contribute to its regeneration throughout adult life. While two-dimensional mouse epidermal stem cell cultures have been established decades ago, a long-term, feeder cell- and serum-free culture system recapitulating murine epidermal architecture has not been available. Here we describe an epidermal organoid culture system that allows long-term, genetically stable expansion of adult epidermal stem cells. Our epidermal expansion media combines atypically high calcium concentrations, activation of cyclic AMP, FGF and R-spondin signaling with inhibition of BMP signaling. Organoids are established robustly from adult mouse skin and expand over at least 6 months, while maintaining the basal-apical organization of the mouse interfollicular epidermis. The system represents a powerful tool to study epidermal homeostasis and disease in vitro. Overall design: We establish an organoid culture system for long-term expansion of mouse epidermal stem cells. Using histological methods as well as low-coverage multiplexed RNA sequencing, we show that cultured organoids resembled interfollicular epidermis. We analyzed a total of 23 samples, including 6 controls that are isolated from the skin of mice. None-passaged as well as cultured organoids were compared with replicates. Differences growth factors and small molecules that allow expansion of organoids were compared with replicates.

Description
Dendritic cells (DC) are the most potent antigen-presenting cells of the immune system. In lymph nodes (LN), they are also believed to dispose of apoptotic cells, a critical function usually achieved by macrophages (M) in other tissues. We report a population of tolerogenic M located in the T cell zone of LN. T zone M (TZM) are long lived M seeded after birth and slowly replaced by blood monocytes. We show that TZM but not DC act as the only professional scavengers clearing apoptotic cells in the LN T cell zone. Importantly, we demonstrate that TZM prevent the capture of apoptotic cells by DC and the associated potential noxious activation of T cell immunity. We thus propose a new model in which efferocytosis and T cell activation are uncoupled processes handled by TZM and DC respectively.
