Introduction

Transcription factor that binds to the promoter and the enhancer regions of target genes. Binds to the enhancer element PRE-I (positive regulatory element-I) of the IL-4 gene (PubMed:7665092). Binds to the promoter and the enhancer of the immunoglobulin heavy chain. Binds to GPE1, a cis-acting element in the G-CSF gene promoter.

A comprehensive understanding of the dynamic changes in plasma cells (PCs) during inflammation remains elusive. In this study, we analyzed the distinct responses of PCs across different phases of inflammation in a dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced mouse colitis model. Six-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were treated with 2.2 % DSS in distilled water for 5 days to induce colitis, and colonic tissues were collected at the peak of inflammation, during recovery, and at the end of the recovery phase. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed to investigate temporal changes in the gut immune environment. PCs were categorized into six subsets, with Ube2c + PCs displaying notable alterations during various inflammatory phases. Genes such as Pycard, Gpx1, Lgals3, and Chchd10 were significantly expressed in Ube2c + PCs and appeared critical in resolving DSS-induced inflammation. Transcription factors (TFs), including Atf4, Cebpg, Jund, and Klf6, exhibited high regulatory activity in Ube2c + PCs across inflammatory stages. Additionally, we identified an interaction between Chchd10 and C1qbp in PCs, which stabilized C1qbp, reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and potentially enhanced PC survival and function under inflammatory conditions. This study highlights dynamic quasi-temporal gene expression and TF regulation in PCs during colitis, providing insights for future PC-targeted immunotherapy research.

Magnolol, a compound extracted from Magnolia officinalis, demonstrates potential efficacy in addressing metabolic dysfunction and cardiovascular diseases. Its biological activities encompass anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticoagulant, and anti-diabetic effects. Growth/differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15), a member of the transforming growth factor β superfamily, is considered a potential therapeutic target for metabolic disorders. This study investigated the impact of magnolol on GDF-15 production and its underlying mechanism. The research examined the pharmacological effect of magnolol on GDF-15 expression in vitro and in vivo, and determined the involvement of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress signaling in this process. Luciferase reporter assays, chromatin immunoprecipitation, and in vitro DNA binding assays were employed to examine the regulation of GDF-15 by activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4), CCAAT enhancer binding protein γ (CEBPG), and CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF). The study also investigated the effect of magnolol and ATF4 on the activity of a putative enhancer located in the intron of the GDF-15 gene, as well as the influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on magnolol and ATF4-induced transcription activity. Results demonstrated that magnolol triggers GDF-15 production in endothelial cells (ECs), hepatoma cell line G2 (HepG2) and hepatoma cell line 3B (Hep3B) cell lines, and primary mouse hepatocytes. The cooperative binding of ATF4 and CEBPG upstream of the GDF-15 gene or the E1944285 enhancer located in the intron led to full-power transcription of the GDF-15 gene. SNP alleles were found to impact the magnolol and ATF4-induced transcription activity of GDF-15. In high-fat diet ApoE^-/- mice, administration of magnolol induced GDF-15 production and partially suppressed appetite through GDF-15. These findings suggest that magnolol regulates GDF-15 expression through priming of promoter and enhancer activity, indicating its potential as a drug for the treatment of metabolic disorders.

Expression of C/EBP and Kr-h1 transcription factors under immune stimulation in the noble crayfish

Article

Transcription factors (TFs) have an important role in the regulation of the gene expression network. The role of TFs in the immune response of freshwater crayfish is poorly understood, but leveraging the regulatory mechanisms of immune response could augment the resistance against the invasive oomycete pathogen, Aphanomyces astaci. Previous studies indicated that the TFs CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP) and putative Krüppel homolog-1 protein (Kr-h1) might play a role in immune and stress response of the noble crayfish (Astacus astacus). Here, we aimed to further characterise these two gene products to gain a better understanding of their evolutionary origin, domain organisation and expression patterns across different crayfish tissues. Furthermore, we conducted an immune stimulation experiment to observe the potential changes in the gene expression of C/EBP and Kr-h1 under immune challenge in different crayfish tissues. Our results showed that both C/EBP and Kr-h1 are closely related to other C/EBPs and Kr-h1s in Malacostraca. Gene expression analysis revealed that both TFs are present in all analysed tissues, with higher expression of C/EBP in the gills and Kr-h1 in the abdominal muscle. Immune stimulation with laminarin (mimicking β-1-3-glucan in the oomycete cell wall) showed an activation of the crayfish immune system, with an overall increase in the total haemocyte count (THC) compared to untreated control and crayfish buffered saline (CBS) treatment. On the gene expression level, an up-regulation of the C/EBP gene was detected in the laminarin treated group in hepatopancreas and heart, while no changes were observed for the Kr-h1 gene. Our results indicate an early change in C/EBP expression in multiple tissues during immune stimulation and suggest its involvement in the immune response of the noble crayfish.
