Microarray analysis was performed on the aerial parts of 5 plants collected 24 hours after water treatment or inoculation by the Ralstonia solanacearum hrpB strain (avirulent strain) and 5 days (25% of wilted leaves) after challenge inoculation with the GMI1000 virulent R. solanacearum strain. We compared trancriptome expression level of protected plants (hrpB prinoculation) versus non protected plants (water treatment), 24H after treatment and 5 days (25% of wilted leaves) after challenge inoculation with the GMI1000 virulent R. solanacearum strain

View SamplesIn this experiment, we compared transcriptome of one knock out mutants in the CLV2 gene (clv2-7) to his wild type Col-0 when challenged with the virulent GMI1000 strain of Ralstonia solanacearum. This mutant shows a significant delay of symptom appearance. The experiment was conducted on roots and leaves of 4 week old plants harvested at the time of inoculation and when the first symptoms appeared on the susceptible wild type (4 days after inoculation - 25% of wilted leaves: disease index 1, D1).

View SamplesIn this experiment, we compared transcriptome of 2 homozygous knock out mutants in the CLV1 gene (clv1-12 and clv1-13) to their wild type Ws-2 when challenged with the virulent Rd15 strain of Ralstonia solanacearum. The two mutants show a significant delay of symptom appearance. The experiment was conducted on roots and leaves of 4 week old plants harvested at the time of inoculation and when the first symptoms appeared on the susceptible wild type (4 days after inoculation).

View SamplesPlant immune responses to pathogen attack involve various defense mechanisms and among them, the Hypersensitive Response (HR), a form of programmed cell death occurring at invasion sites. AtMYB30, a transcription factor acts as a positive regulator of a cell death pathway conditioning the HR.
A MYB transcription factor regulates very-long-chain fatty acid biosynthesis for activation of the hypersensitive cell death response in Arabidopsis.

View SamplesThe initiation of the mucosal immune response in Peyers patch (PP) relies on the sampling, processing and efficient presentation of foreign antigens by dendritic cells (DC). PP DC encompass five subsets, among which CD11b+ conventional DC (cDC) and LysoDC have distinct progenitors and functions but share many cell surface markers. This has previously led to confusion between these two subsets. In addition, another PP DC subset, termed double-negative (DN), remains poorly characterized. Here, we have studied the genetic relatedness of the different subsets of PP cDC at steady state and under TLR7 ligand stimulation. We also provide the transcriptional profiles of subepithelial TIM-4- and interfollicular TIM-4+ macrophages.

View SamplesMouse embryonic stem (ES) cells remain pluripotent in vitro when grown in presence of Leukaemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF). LIF starvation leads to apoptosis of some of the ES-derived differentiated cells, together with p38a MAP kinase activation. Apoptosis, but not morphological cell differentiation, is blocked by a p38 inhibitor, PD 169316. To further understand the mechanism of action of this compound, we have identified its specific targets by microarray studies. We report on the global expression profiles of genes expressed at three days upon LIF withdrawal (d3) compared to pluripotent cells and of genes whose expression is modulated at d3 under anti-apoptotic conditions. We showed that at d3 without LIF cells express, earlier than anticipated, specialized cell markers and that when the apoptotic process was impaired, expression of differentiation markers was altered. In addition, functional tests revealed properties of anti-apoptotic proteins not to alter cell pluripotency and a novel role for metallothionein 1 gene which prevents apoptosis of early differentiated cells.

View SamplesTo analyze the impact of photosynthetic redox signals, light sources with spectral qualities that preferentially excite either Photosystem I (PSI light) or Photosystem II (PSII light) were used. The light sources have been described in (Wagner et al, Planta 2008). Strong reduction signals were induced by light shifts from PSI to PSII light (PSI-II). In order to find primary regulated genes the acclimation responses were monitored at 30 min and 60 min after a light shift. The control was continuous Psi light at the same time. We used stn7 (a thylakoid redox regulated kinase) to specifically block transduction of photosynthetic redox signal in order to compare real redox regulated with that of other light acclimation pathways.

View SamplesDysregulation of vascular stiffness and cellular metabolism occur early in pulmonary hypertension (PH). Yet, the mechanisms by which biophysical properties of extracellular matrix relate to metabolic processes and downstream PH phenotypes remain undefined. In cultured endothelial and smooth muscle cells and confirmed in PH-diseased human samples, we found that ECM stiffening activates the mechanosensitive factors YAP/TAZ to increase glycolysis and induce glutaminase (GLS) expression and glutaminolysis. Glutaminolysis replenishes aspartate for anabolic biosynthesis, thus sustaining proliferation and migration within stiff ECM. In vitro GLS inhibition blocks aspartate production, consequently reprogramming entire cellular proliferative pathways, while aspartate restores proliferation. In a rat model in vivo, GLS inhibition prevents hemodynamic and histologic manifestations of PH. Thus, mechanical ECM stiffening sustains vascular cell growth and migration through YAP/TAZ-dependent glutaminolysis a paradigm that advances our understanding of the connections of mechanical stimuli with dysregulated vascular metabolism and identifies new metabolic drug targets in PH.
