Description
Splenic innate-like marginal zone B (MZB) cells are strategically positioned at the interface between the circulating blood and lymphoid tissue, where they initiate rapid immune responses to blood-borne antigens. Here, we find that selective genetic deletion of MZB cells substantially increases the follicular helper T (Tfh) cell and germinal center (GC) response to high cholesterol diet (HCD), which leads to T cell-dependent acceleration of atherosclerosis. We show that MZB cells activate a homeostatic program in response to HCD, in which upregulation of the transcription factor Atf3 plays a determinant regulatory role. Shuttling of MZB cells to the follicle is dispensable for their regulatory properties on Tfh cells. Instead, HCD promotes increased interaction between MZB and (pre-)Tfh cells outside the follicle, and upregulates MZB cell expression of Cd274 in an Atf3-dependent manner. Interaction between MZB and Tfh cells leads to Cd274-mediated suppression of Tfh cell motility, limits Tfh cell accumulation in the follicle and suppresses the pro-atherogenic Tfh/GC response. Our findings reveal a previously unsuspected role for MZB cells in the control of Tfh/GC response to a cholesterol diet, and uncover a new mechanism through which MZB cells can couple their unique metabolic and innate immune properties and use them to maintain a tolerogenic state. The results may have broad (patho)physiological implications. Overall design: Transcriptomic comparision between high-fat diet and standard chow in LDLr -/- splenic marginal zone B cells

Description
Glioma cells are sensitized to the alkylator temozolomide after exposure to IFN-beta. In glioma-initiating cells (GIC), IFN-beta alone reduces clonogenicity. We investigated differentially expressed genes with or without IFN exposure in either longterm glioma cells or GIC.

Description
Recent studies demonstrated that tumor cells with stem cell-like properties can be cultured from human glioblastomas by using conditions that select for the expansion of neural stem cells. We established glioblastoma stem-like (GS-) cell cultures from 9 different glioblastomas, 8 of which generated stably expandable cell lines. Analyzing GS-cell cultures, we discovered two clearly discernable phenotypes.

Recent work using mouse models has revealed that mTORC2, which unlike mTORC1 is not acutely sensitive to rapamycin, plays a key role in the regulation of organismal physiology. The substrates and pathways regulated by mTORC2 are at present relatively unknown

Description
We compared a large panel of human glioblastoma stem-like (GS) cell lines, corresponding primary tumors and conventional glioma cell lines to identify cell lines that preserve the transcriptome of human glioblastomas most closely, thereby allowing identification of shared therapeutic targets.
Publication Title
A distinct subset of glioma cell lines with stem cell-like properties reflects the transcriptional phenotype of glioblastomas and overexpresses CXCR4 as therapeutic target.

Description
The objectives of this study were to measure effects of an aspirin intervention on gene expression in normal colonic epithelial and stromal tissue in healthy humans and to determine whether response differed by UGT1A6*2 genotype. We also sought to characterize gene expression differences within colonic tissue microenvironments by identifying genes that were differentially expressed between epithelial and stromal tissue.
Publication Title
