Description
Little is known about the roles of methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 2 (MBD2), a reader of DNA methylation, in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Here, we investigated the role of MBD2 in T-ALL by using an Mbd2 knockout mouse model. We found that MBD2 ablation impeded the progression and maintenance of Notch1-driven T-ALL.Our data reveals essential roles for MBD2 in lymphopoiesis and T-ALL and support an intriguing potential of MBD2 as a therapeutic target for T-ALL.

Description
To guarantee blood supply throughout adult life hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) need to carefully balance between self-renewing cell divisions and quiescence. Identification of genes controlling HSC self-renewal is of utmost importance given that HSCs are the only stem cells with broad clinical applications. Transcription factor PU.1 is one of the major regulators of myeloid and lymphoid development. Recent reports suggest that PU.1 mediates its functions via gradual expression level changes rather than binary on/off states. So far, this has not been considered in any study of HSCs and thus, PU.1s role in HSC function has remained largely unclear. Here we demonstrate using hypomorphic mice with an engineered disruption of an autoregulatory feedback loop that decreased PU.1 levels resulted in loss of key HSC functions, all of which could be fully rescued by restoration of proper PU.1 levels via a human PU.1 transgene. Mechanistically, we found excessive HSC cell divisions and altered expression of cell cycle regulators whose promoter regions were bound by PU.1 in normal HSCs. Adequate PU.1 levels were maintained by a mechanism of direct autoregulation restricted to HSCs through a physical interaction of a -14kb enhancer with the proximal promoter. Our findings identify PU.1 as novel regulator controling the switch between cell division and quiescence in order to prevent exhaustion of HSCs. Given that even moderate level changes greatly impact stem cell function, our data suggest important therapeutic implications for leukemic patients with reduced PU.1 levels. Moreover, we provide first proof, that autoregulation of a transcription factor, PU.1, has a crucial function in vivo. We anticipate that our concept of how autoregulation forms an active chromosomal conformation will impact future research on transcription factor networks regulating stem cell fate.

Description
We describe a novel subset of CD8+ DCs in lymphoid organs of nave mice characterized by expression of the CX3CR1 chemokine receptor. CX3CR1+CD8+ DCs lack hallmarks of classical CD8+ DCs, including IL12 secretion, the capacity to cross-present antigen and their developmental independence of the transcriptional factor BatF3. Gene expression profiling showed that CX3CR1+CD8+ DCs resemble CD8- cDCs. The microarray analysis further revealed a unique plasmacytoid DC (PDC) gene signature of CX3CR1+ CD8+ DCs. A PDC relationship of the cells is further supported by the fact that they harbor characteristic D-J immunoglobulin gene rearrangements and that development of CX3CR1+CD8+ DCs requires E2-2, the critical transcriptional regulator of PDCs. Thus, CX3CR1+ CD8+ DCs represent a unique DC subset, related to but distinct from PDCs.

Description
Beyond demonstrating a critical role for progesterone receptor signaling in normal mammary epithelial proliferation, the progesterone receptor knockout mouse disclosed the progesterone receptor along with its effector pathways as key determinants of mammary neoplastic progression. Despite these advances, however, further progress in our mechanistic understanding of progesterones involvement in mammary morphogenesis and tumorigenesis is contingent upon defining the essential effector pathways responsible for transducing the progesterone signal into a mammary proliferative and/or pro-survival response. Toward this goal, a judiciously chosen acute progesterone treatment regimen together with microarray methods was applied to the mammary gland of the normal mouse to uncover new effectors that operate immediately downstream of the progesterone mammary signal. Examination of the resultant progesterone-responsive transcriptome disclosed inhibitor of differentiation or DNA binding 4 (Id4) as a molecular target acutely induced by progesterone in the murine mammary epithelium.

Description
A common method used both in vitro and in vivo, to identify Tregs in CD4+ T cells is through the characterization of surface marker CD25. Although CD25 expression is well correlated with regulatory activity in vitro, CD4+CD25+ T cells are not the only regulatory CD4+ T cells in vivo. Studies suggest that in many situations, CD4+CD25 T cells are as effective as CD4+CD25+ T cells in controlling T cell mediated disease. Therefore, CD25 is not a uniquely specific cell surface marker for the identification of Tregs. CD49f is an 6-integrin subunit which dimerizes with either the 1 or 4 subunit to form receptors for various laminin isoforms. We found that CD4+ T cells from NOD mice express CD49f, and old non-diabetic NOD mice had an increase of CD4+CD49f+ T cells in the spleen and peripheral lymph node when compared to both young and diabetic mice.
