The mechanisms that modulate c-myb mRNA levels in mouse erythroleukemia cells induced toward erythroid differentiation were compared with those that act on c-myc. Both genes exhibited regulation at the levels of premature transcription arrest and RNA turnover. However, these common processes allowed temporally distinct control of gene expression.

Abstract Background Parasites of the genus Trichinella are the pathogenic agents of trichinellosis, which is a widespread and severe foodborne parasitic disease. Trichinella spiralis resides primarily in mammalian skeletal muscle cells. After invading the cells of the host organism, T. spiralis must elude or invalidate the host’s innate and adaptive immune responses to survive. It is necessary to characterize the pathogenesis of trichinellosis to help to prevent the occurrence and further progression of this disease. The aims of this study were to elucidate the mechanisms of nurse cell formation, pathogenesis and immune evasion of T. spiralis, to provide valuable information for further research investigating the basic cell biology of Trichinella-infected muscle cells and the interaction between T. spiralis and its host. Methods We performed transcriptome profiling by RNA sequencing to identify global changes at 1, 3, 7, 10 and 15 days post-infection (dpi) in gene expression in the diaphragm after the parasite entered and persisted within the murine myocytes; the mice were infected by intravenous injection of newborn larvae. Gene expression analysis was based on the alignment results. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified based on their expression levels in various samples, and functional annotation and enrichment analysis were performed. Results The most extensive and dynamic gene expression responses in host diaphragms were observed during early infection (1 dpi). The number of DEGs and genes annotated in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and Gene Ontology databases decreased significantly in the infected mice compared to the uninfected mice at 3 and 7 dpi, suddenly increased sharply at 10 dpi, and then decreased to a lower level at 15 dpi, similar to that observed at 3 and 7 dpi. The massive initial reaction of the murine muscle cells to Trichinella infection steadied in the later stages of infection, with little additional changes detected for the remaining duration of the studied process. Although there were hundreds of DEGs at each time point, only 11 genes were consistently up- or downregulated at all 5 time points. Conclusions The gene expression patterns identified in this study can be employed to characterize the coordinated response of T. spiralis-infected myocytes in a time-resolved manner. This comprehensive dataset presents a distinct and sensitive picture of the interaction between host and parasite during intracellular infection, which can help to elucidate how pathogens evade host defenses and coordinate the biological functions of host cells to survive in the mammalian environment.

AbstractGene expression requires tight coordination of the molecular machineries that mediate transcription and splicing. While the interplay between transcription kinetics and spliceosome fidelity has been investigated before, less is known about mechanisms regulating the assembly of the spliceosomal machinery in response to transcription changes. Here, we report an association of the Smn complex, which mediates spliceosomal snRNP biogenesis, with the 7SK complex involved in transcriptional regulation. We found that Smn interacts with the 7SK core components Larp7 and Mepce and specifically associates with 7SK subcomplexes containing hnRNP R. The association between Smn and 7SK complexes is enhanced upon transcriptional inhibition leading to reduced production of snRNPs. Taken together, our findings reveal a functional association of Smn and 7SK complexes that is governed by global changes in transcription. Thus, in addition to its canonical nuclear role in transcriptional regulation, 7SK has cytosolic functions in fine-tuning spliceosome production according to transcriptional demand.

miRNAs constitute a class of non-coding RNA that act as powerful epigenetic regulators in animal and plant cells. In order to identify putative tumor-suppressor miRNAs we profiled the expression of various miRNAs during differentiation of erythroleukemia cells. RNA was purified before and after differentiation induction and subjected to quantitative RT-PCR. The majority of the miRNAs tested were found upregulated in differentiated cells with miR-16-5p showing the most significant increase. Functional studies using gain- and loss-of-function constructs proposed that miR-16-5p has a role in promoting the erythroid differentiation program of murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells. In order to identify the underlying mechanism of action, we utilized bioinformatic in-silico platforms that incorporate predictions for the genes targeted by miR-16-5p. Interestingly, ribosome constituents, as well as ribosome biogenesis factors, were overrepresented among the miR-16-5p predicted gene targets. Accordingly, biochemical experiments showed that, indeed, miR-16-5p could modulate the levels of independent ribosomal proteins, and the overall ribosomal levels in cultured cells. In conclusion, miR-16-5p is identified as a differentiation-promoting agent in erythroleukemia cells, demonstrating antiproliferative activity, likely as a result of its ability to target the ribosomal machinery and restore any imbalanced activity imposed by the malignancy and the blockade of differentiation.

AbstractSimilar to the hypertrophic scar and keloids, the efficacy of glucorticoids (GC) for vocal fold injury is highly variable. We previously reported dexamethasone enhanced the pro-fibrotic effects of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β as a potential mechanism for inconsistent clinical outcomes. In the current study, we sought to determine the mechanism(s) whereby GCs influence the fibrotic response and mechanisms underlying these effects with an emphasis on TGF-β and nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1 (NR4A1) signaling. Human VF fibroblasts (HVOX) were treated with three commonly-employed GCs+ /-TGF-β1. Phosphorylation of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR:NR3C1) and activation of NR4A1 was analyzed by western blotting. Genes involved in the fibrotic response, including ACTA2, TGFBR1, and TGFBR2 were analyzed by qPCR. RNA-seq was performed to identify global changes in gene expression induced by dexamethasone. GCs enhanced phosphorylation of GR at Ser211 and TGF-β-induced ACTA2 expression. Dexamethasone upregulated TGFBR1, and TGFBR2 in the presence of TGF-β1 and increased active NR4A1. RNA-seq results confirmed numerous pathways, including TGF-β signaling, affected by dexamethasone. Synergistic pro-fibrotic effects of TGF-β were observed across GCs and appeared to be mediated, at least partially, via upregulation of TGF-β receptors. Dexamethasone exhibited diverse regulation of gene expression including NR4A1 upregulation consistent with the anti-fibrotic potential of GCs.

Ferrochelatase, which catalyses the last step in haem biosynthesis, i.e. the insertion of Fe(II) into protophorphyrin IX, is present in all cells, but is particularly abundant in erythroid cells during haemoglobinization. Using mouse ferrochelatase cDNA as a probe two ferrochelatase transcripts, having lengths of 2.9 kb and 2.2 kb, were found in extracts of mouse liver, kidney, brain, muscle and spleen, the 2.9 kb transcript being more abundant in the non-erythroid tissues and the 2.2 kb transcript more predominant in spleen. In mouse erythroleukemia cells the 2.9 kb ferrochelatase transcript is also more abundant; however, following induction of erythroid differentiation by dimethyl sulphoxide there is a preferential increase in the 2.2 kb transcript, which eventually predominates. With mouse reticulocytes, the purest immature erythroid cell population available, over 90% of the total ferrochelatase mRNA is present as the 2.2 kb transcript. Since there is probably only one mouse ferrochelatase gene, the occurrence of two ferrochelatase transcripts could arise from the use of two putative polyadenylation signals in the 3′ region of ferrochelatase DNA. This possibility was explored by using a 389 bp DNA fragment produced by PCR with synthetic oligoprimers having sequence similarity with a region between the polyadenylation sites. This fragment hybridized only to the 2.9 kb ferrochelatase transcript, indicating that the two transcripts differ at their 3′ ends and suggesting that the 2.2 kb transcript results from the utilization of the upstream polyadenylation signal. The preferential utilization of the upstream polyadenylation signal may be an erythroid-specific characteristic of ferrochelatase gene expression.
