KLF13 promotes SLE pathogenesis by modifying chromatin accessibility of key proinflammatory cytokine genesCommunications biology · 2024
Summary (written by the submitters)
Although significant progress has been achieved in elucidating the genetic architecture of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), identifying genes underlying the pathogenesis has been challenging. The NZM2410-derived lupus susceptibility Sle3 locus is associated with T cell hyperactivity and activated myeloid cells. However, candidate genes associated with these phenotypes have not been identified.

Here, we narrow the Sle3 locus to a smaller genomic segment (Sle3k) and show that mice carrying Sle3k and Sle1 loci developed lupus nephritis. We identify Klf13 as the primary candidate gene upregulated in Sle3k mice and demonstrate that Klf13 upregulation is associated with genome-wide transcription changes resulting in higher levels of proinflammatory cytokines, enhanced T cell activation, and hyperresponsiveness of myeloid cells. Correspondingly, Klf13 –/– mice display striking repression of genes involved in mediating immune activation, including key proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines. Furthermore, Klf13 –/– mice show profound dysregulation in cytokine signaling pathways in myeloid cells in response to toll receptor ligands, thus revealing a key role of KLF13 in modulating myeloid cell function. Klf13 upregulation is associated with increased production of RANTES, a key chemokine in lupus nephritis, in activated T cells and the kidneys of lupus-prone mice. In sum, our findings reveal Klf13 as a key gene in the Sle3 interval in mediating lupus pathogenesis that may have implications in the rational design of new therapies for SLE and other autoimmune/inflammatory diseases.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE278048_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1165276 and SRA study SRP534791. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
28 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 28 sample titles: 28 distinct titles with little repetition. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
