Co-transfection of AjSOCS6 with AjMyD88 into HEK293 cells significantly reduced NF-?B luciferase activities compared to AjMyD88 single-transfection groups, in a natural state and under LPS stimulation. These findings suggest that AjSOCS6 negatively regulates MyD88-dependent NF-?B and type I IFN signaling pathways, underscoring its role in the immune defense of fish against viral and bacterial infections.

Genetic Subclones Reveal Phenotypic Heterogeneity in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (Marriott Grand Ballroom 5-6 (Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina)) - Nov 6, 2024 - Abstract #ASH2024ASH_1953; In a validation cohort (n=574), the GC B cell theme was associated with a favorable response to R-CHOP chemotherapy (p<0.02), as expected, while the cell growth theme (but not the cell cycle theme) was associated with adverse survival (p<0.02)...In particular, our analysis suggests a functional role for the highly recurrent REL amplification in GCB DLBCL, which may be selected for its ability to block terminal memory B cell differentiation. Our paired scRNA and scATAC sequencing represents a significant resource for the lymphoma research community that illuminates the pathobiology of these malignancies.
- |||||||||| Journal: Shifts in embryonic oxygen levels cue heterochrony in limb initiation. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 1, 2024
This heterochronic shift is not due to changes in cis-regulatory sequences controlling T-box gene expression, but unexpectedly, is dependent upon differential oxygen levels to which avian and mammalian embryos are exposed prior to limb initiation, mediated, at least partially, by an NFKB transcription factor, cRel. Together, these results provide mechanistic understanding of an important example of developmental heterochrony and exemplify how the maternal environment regulates timing during embryonic development.

Furthermore, by employing mouse tumor models and human clinical data, we identified the NF-?B subunit c-Rel as one such factor that, through Glut3-dependent O-GlcNAcylation, functionally orchestrates gene expression in Tregs at tumor sites. Together, these results not only identify immunometabolic alterations and molecular events contributing to fundamental aspects of Treg biology, specifically at tumor sites but also reveal tumor-specific cellular properties that can aid in the development of Treg-targeted cancer immunotherapies.

- |||||||||| Cortical spreading depolarization induces distinct transcriptomic responses in neurons, astrocytes, and microglia, shifting from pro to anti-inflammatory signaling within 24 hours. A potential mechanism contributing to headache termination (MCP Hall A) - Aug 22, 2024 - Abstract #Neuroscience2024Neuroscience_1489;
Consistent with the transcriptional data, no p65 nuclear translocation and inflammatory morphological phenotype were observed in microglia, suggesting that microglia may contribute to synaptic repair by surveilling injured dendrites with their processes, while inflammatory signaling in astrocytes can potentially stimulate/modulate the meningeal nociceptor activity through astrocyte endfeet abutting subarachnoid and perivascular spaces. In conclusion, following a single CSD, distinct transcriptomic responses occur in neurons, astrocytes, and microglia, suggesting tightly regulated inflammatory signaling, which is largely terminated within 24 hours, thus potentially contributing to headache resolution.

- |||||||||| Journal, IO biomarker: The involvement of CgRHIM-containing protein in regulating haemocyte apoptosis after high temperature stress in Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 22, 2024
Moreover, the protein abundance of CgRHIM-containing protein increased significantly, and the ubiquitination level of CgRHIM-containing protein in haemocytes showed an increasing trend at first and then decreased. After the expression of CgRHIM-containing protein was knocked down by siRNA, the mRNA expression levels of CgRel and CgBcl-2 decreased significantly at 6 h after high temperature stress, and those of CgFADD-like, Cgcaspase-8 and Cgcaspase-3, as well as the apoptosis rate of haemocytes also decreased significantly at 24 h. These results indicated that CgRHIM-containing protein might regulate haemocyte apoptosis in oysters upon high temperature stress via mediating the expression of Rel, Bcl-2 and caspase-8/3.

After the expression of CgRHIM-containing protein was knocked down by siRNA, the mRNA expression levels of CgRel and CgBcl-2 decreased significantly at 6 h after high temperature stress, and those of CgFADD-like, Cgcaspase-8 and Cgcaspase-3, as well as the apoptosis rate of haemocytes also decreased significantly at 24 h. These results indicated that CgRHIM-containing protein might regulate haemocyte apoptosis in oysters upon high temperature stress via mediating the expression of Rel, Bcl-2 and caspase-8/3. Furthermore, CgCD49d was found to be mainly expressed in the agranulocyte subpopulation, and Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated CgCD49d antibody labeled agranulocytes with a circle of green fluorescence signals on CgCD49d+ agranulocyte surface under Confocal microscopy, which accounted for 24.9
