The DEXI promoter region is bound by multiple transcription factors in a murine haematopoietic progenitor cell line.
Combinatorial transcriptional control in blood stem/progenitor cells: genome-wide analysis of ten major transcriptional regulators.. Combinatorial transcription factor (TF) interactions control cellular phenotypes and, therefore, underpin stem cell formation, maintenance, and differentiation. Here, we report the genome...
[ "Promoter decoding of transcription factor dynamics involves a trade-off between noise and control of gene expression. Numerous transcription factors (TFs) encode information about upstream signals in the dynamics of their activation, but how downstream genes decode these dynamics remains poorly understood. Using m...

RANK-RANKL pathway signalling is linked to development of Aire-expressing medullary thymic epithelial cells.
RANK signals from CD4+3− inducer cells regulate development of Aire-expressing epithelial cells in the thymic medulla. Aire-expressing medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs) play a key role in preventing autoimmunity by expressing tissue-restricted antigens to help purge the emerging T cell receptor repertoire of se...
[ "Control of central and peripheral tolerance by Aire.. The negative selection of self-reactive thymocytes depends on the expression of tissue-specific antigens by medullary thymic epithelial cells. The autoimmune regulator (Aire) protein plays an important role in turning on these antigens, and the absence of even ...

Lysine histone demethylase inhibitor JIB 04 is inactive against KDM5A.
A small molecule modulates Jumonji histone demethylase activity and selectively inhibits cancer growth. The pharmacological inhibition of general transcriptional regulators has the potential to block growth through targeting multiple tumorigenic signalling pathways simultaneously. Here, using an innovative cell-based s...

Adult tissue-resident macrophages possess a self-renewing capacity.
Origin and functions of tissue macrophages.. Macrophages are distributed in tissues throughout the body and contribute to both homeostasis and disease. Recently, it has become evident that most adult tissue macrophages originate during embryonic development and not from circulating monocytes. Each tissue has its own co...
[ "Tissue-resident macrophages self-maintain locally throughout adult life with minimal contribution from circulating monocytes.. Despite accumulating evidence suggesting local self-maintenance of tissue macrophages in the steady state, the dogma remains that tissue macrophages derive from monocytes. Using parabiosis...
