Mission Statement The Sandler Asthma Basic Research Center (SABRE Center) at UCSF is an investigative unit dedicated to basic discovery in asthma research. The SABRE Center is nucleated by a small group of five basic scientists who are supported by advanced technology cores and linked with the larger scientific community through Center Grants and Program Project Grants focused around asthma research. Strong linkage with the Airway Clinical Research Center at UCSF has enabled increasing focus on human studies. Regular seminars promote additional integration of the SABRE Center into the more extended UCSF research community to facilitate collaboration and to increase awareness for needs in fundamental discovery in asthma research. Founded in 1999, the SABRE Center is made possible by the generous support of the Sandler Foundation.

Summary of Accomplishments over the Past Year The SABRE Center is evolving into a successful research enterprise within the greater UCSF scientific community. Notable benchmarks achieved this year include: (1) the award of an NIH Director’s New Innovator Award to Chris Allen, the SABRE Center UCSF Fellow, who was recruited to stay at UCSF on the faculty as a member of the Cardiovascular Research Institute, where he will continue his work as a SABRE Center member; (2) the first full year of funding of the SABRE Center Program Project grant to study the role of innate lymphoid cells in human asthma using patients accrued from the Airway Clinical Research Center; (3) the successful renewal of the NIH NIAID Asthma and Allergic Diseases Cooperative Research Center to continue investigations of cytokine regulation of airway smooth muscle contraction; (4) the successful organization and planning of a Keystone Symposium in January 2013 devoted to recent advanced in Type 2 Immunity and Pathogenic Processes in Asthma in Santa Fe, New Mexico, that drew over 250 scientists together; and (5) continued successes in obtaining extramural funding and publishing high impact manuscripts in competitive journals. Increasingly, these studies have begun to work with and focus on human patients and materials and the interactions with our clinical colleagues in the Pulmonary Division continue to strengthen with the establishment of the Airway Clinical Research Center. We look forward to ongoing successes in the coming year as we continue with our mission to conquer asthma.

Overview – 2013 Richard M. Locksley, M.D. The SABRE Center consists of the Director, Dr. Locksley, three full-time faculty, Drs. Ansel, Liu and Shin, and one UCSF Fellow, Dr. Allen, who has just completed his five year appointment and has been recruited to join the faculty. In turn, these investigators now support 10 postdoctoral trainees, 9 graduate students in Immunology and Biomedical Sciences, and 3 professional staff. Dr. Chapman, the former head of the Pulmonary Division at UCSF, works in contiguous space. His interests focus on lung inflammation and fibrosis, which overlap the interests of the SABRE Center. The SABRE Center maintains close working relationships with the Airway Clinical Research Center (ACRC) under the leadership of Dr. John Fahy, who has become a member of the Executive Board. The fruits of this collaborative effort resulted in the first NIH Program Project Grant awarded to SABRE investigators beginning in 2012, with a major focus centered on human patients and tissues as organized through the ACRC. The SABRE Center has evolved into a self-standing research addition to the UCSF campus with the capacity to contribute to our understanding of this important human disease. We will review the individual investigators and their progress, followed by an overview of the constituents of the Center, a brief discussion of achievements and finally a look at the extramural grants that have been obtained to support these activities. Investigators Dr. Ansel is working to understand the gene expression pathways that mediate differentiation and regulation of cell fate and function in allergy, particularly asthma. His focus remains on microRNAs, transcription factors and epigenetics as critical executioners of these pathways. He continues to push new technologies relevant to his studies, including a method for assessing microRNA targets by demonstrating their associations with the miRISC processing complex, an analysis which could greatly spur the field. He published 4 manuscripts in 2012-13 as senior author and contributed to a fifth; an additional manuscript is under revision at Nature Immunology and describes the role of a specific microRNA, miR-17~92, in follicular T cell differentiation. He is building increasing excitement over his discoveries in the field as evidenced by recognition of his early achievements through solid publications and enhanced amounts of extramural grant support. He was asked to write a review on RNA regulation of the immune system for Nature Reviews Immunology and to organize an issue of Immunological Reviews on the subject, attesting to his recognition by leaders in the field. Dr. Ansel participated in several national and international scientific conferences related to his expertise, including talks in Japan and Korea. Based on studies completed with his 3-year Dana Foundation Award, Mark received his first R01 funded grant from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute of the NIH to pursue collaborations with Dr. Prescott Woodruff in the Airway Clinical Research Center, bringing in $1,796,403 in direct research dollars over a five year period. Dr. Ansel also was a participating Principal Investigator as part of the first Program Project Grant among SABRE Investigators from the NIH. This grant began funding in July 2012 at a total level of approximately

3

$1,575,000 per year over the next 5 years. In recognition of his outstanding accomplishments as a young investigator, Dr. Ansel was awarded a Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Scholar Award, resulting in approximately $525,000 in direct costs from 2012-2017. He has a U19 application under consideration that involves a concerted effort towards understanding microRNA biogenesis and regulation in immune cells using allergic immunity as a template. Personnel in the Ansel laboratory include two graduate students, with one supported by National Science Foundation Predoctoral Research Fellowship and one a recipient of an HHMI Graduate Education in Medical Science (GEMS) Training Program Award to pursue translational studies in asthma patients in collaboration with Dr. Fahy in the Airway Clinical Research Center. The postdoctoral fellow is supported by a Swiss National Fellowship. Dr. Ansel’s first student graduated and is doing a postdoctoral fellowship. He is actively pursuing studies using materials collected from patients with asthma in the Airway Clinical Research Center. He is collaborating in studies with the Functional Genomics Core, the Animal Physiology Core and the Flow Cytometry Core. He collaborates with multiple other investigators in the SABRE Center. In recognition of Dr. Ansel’s success to date, the Department of Microbiology & Immunology has submitted his materials for consideration of early advancement to Associate Professor. Dr. Liu is pursuing the mechanisms that control the targeting and turnover of nitric oxide, an important airway and blood vessel relaxant. Work in his postdoctoral training identified the enzyme GSNOR as an important molecule regulating nitrosylation and nitric oxide turnover in tissues, and this molecule has become an important target in asthma, although it will be critical to first identify potential toxicities that might be associated with inhibiting this pathway. During his studies at UCSF, Dr. Liu identified an important role for GSNOR in protecting liver cells from genotoxic stress. He went on to identify the mechanism as linked to the nitrosative inactivation of a DNA alkyltransferase involved in DNA repair. He continues to address the role of GSNOR in immune pathways related to asthma in a collaborative publication with Dr. Krummel in the Imaging Core and in on-going but incomplete studies addressing cell-specific deletion of GSNOR in different lung cell populations in order to pinpoint the origin of GSNOR amenable to therapeutic intervention in asthma. He is actively attempting to identify the targets of protein nitrosylation potentially impacted by this pathway. He had two manuscripts related to GSNOR in publication over the past year and two additional manuscripts submitted. He has been working recently with Dr. Steven An to define direct roles for GSNOR in airway smooth muscle cell contraction and relaxation pathways. Dr. Liu is working collaboratively with individuals in the Functional Genomics, Genetics and Flow Cytometry Cores. He presented his work at both national and international scientific meetings. Dr. Liu is supported by an R01 and P01 on which he participates. These grants, which contribute over $475,000 direct costs per year, are from the National Cancer Institute of the NIH and study aspects of oncogenesis mediated by GSNOR deficiency, an important issue that must be addressed in order to sustain interest in this enzyme as a viable asthma therapeutic target. He has three postdocs in his laboratory. He continues to work to develop sufficient preliminary and published information on the role of GSNOR in smooth muscle contraction in order to pursue this as an asthma-related source of NIH funding. Dr. Liu was promoted to Associate Professor,

4

effective July 2012, thus becoming the first SABRE Center recruit to achieve academic tenure at UCSF. Dr. Shin studies dendritic cell maturation and antigen processing, which represent an extension of her postdoctoral training where she described a novel pathway affecting the turnover of surface complexes of major histocompatibility-peptide complexes at the surface of the dendritic cells, a process which was regulated by ubiquitination. She is continuing studies of dendritic cells with an emphasis on cells collected from the human lung. She published a manuscript addressing the role of ubiquitination in controlling MHC class II surface distribution on antigen presenting cells. A manuscript describing the unexpected finding that IgE receptor on dendritic cells promotes serum IgE clearance, was reviewed positively at the Journal of Clinical Investigation and is under revision. A third manuscript describing the role of ubiquitination in the process of dendritic cell of thymic regulatory T cells was reviewed positively and is being revised for the Journal of Experimental Medicine. Two additional manuscripts are in preparation. She was invited to present her work at a Keystone Meeting on Dendritic Cell Biology. Dr. Shin supports her laboratory with two young investigator awards from the Cancer Research Institute and from the American Heart Association. She is re-submitting an R01 to the NIH for the next deadline after closely missing the payline on her first submission. She received a UCSF School of Medicine Bridge Fund Award, which is awarded to individuals whose grants are felt most likely to succeed if given support for re-submission, at the start of 2013. Dr. Shin has established close collaborations with pulmonary physicians in the Airway Clinical Research Center – Drs. Paul Wolters, Prescott Woodruff and John Fahy – to obtain freshly dissected human lung tissues from transplant procedures and samples of biopsies and cell lavages from asthma patients and individuals with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. She is also using humanized transgenic mice with human FcεRI expressed on mouse cells in a pattern resembling its expression in humans (developed in the Kinet lab at Harvard). Dr. Shin works closely with the Airway Clinical Research Center, the Flow Cytometry Core and the Imaging Center. She currently has a graduate student, two postdoctoral trainees and a technician in her laboratory. Dr. Allen began 5 years ago as a UCSF Fellow and is the first member of the UCSF Fellows Program (http://biochemistry.ucsf.edu/~ucsffellows/current.html) who was selected to work on a specific human disease, in this case, asthma. Dr. Allen combines skills in cellular and molecular immunology with optical imaging capacities that have powered new insights in allergic inflammation. His primary research focuses on understanding the mechanisms by which highaffinity IgE-producing B cells and plasma cells are produced. Surprisingly, this remains a poorly understood pathway of fundamental importance to the pathogenesis of allergy and asthma. Dr. Allen published some of his initial findings in a report in Immunity reporting his discovery that IgE heavy chains inherently drive movement of B cells out of germinal centers, a process that may serve to limit somatic hypermutation and thus affinity. This finding will drive new hypotheses regarding mechanisms by which some allergic individuals develop high-affinity IgE, and constitute major efforts of his laboratory. His generation of an IgE reporter mouse that permits the efficient tracking of IgE-switched B cells constitutes an important technical advance

5

for the field. He was invited to two Keystone meetings to present his findings. He continues to work closely with other investigators in the SABRE Center as he optimizes lung and immune cell imaging technologies that are applicable to broader use by other investigators on campus. Dr. Allen has attracted substantial new extramural funding to support his studies. This includes an NIH R01 that will focus on imaging of basophils in tissues in situ and an NIH Director’s New Innovator Award, fewer than 8% of which were funded in the last year. Together, these awards, both for 5 years duration, will bring in over $500K in direct costs to support his lab over the coming year. In recognition of these accomplishments, Dr. Allen was recruited to the Cardiovascular Research Institute (CVRI) at UCSF, where he joined the UCSF faculty as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anatomy in 2013. He remains committed to investigations into the basic pathogenesis of asthma. Dr. Allen will continue to be a member of SABRE, and will continue to participate in monthly and quarterly meetings with SABRE investigators on the Parnassus site. Core Activities An integral component of the SABRE Center has been support and guidance for advanced technology cores. The specific workings of these Cores and their achievements are detailed elsewhere in this report. The SABRE Center contributes to cores in Mouse Physiology (which provides both acute and chronic mouse models of allergic lung inflammation, including challenge with model antigens, fungal antigens and house dust mite antigens), Functional Genomics, Genetics, Flow Cytometry and Imaging, including video, two-photon, confocal and total internal reflection instruments. Our largest monetary support goes to the Mouse Physiology and the Genetics Cores, which support small animal models and the collection of cohorts of carefully phenotyped families with asthma, respectively, in order to meet specialized needs of importance to asthma investigators. These cores continue to attract substantial use among investigators across the campus as well as scientists in related fields, including inflammation, genetics and stem cell biology. The Animal Core contributed to 5 AAF studies from non-UCSF investigators over the past year and helped train investigators at the University of Arizona and at Virginia Commonwealth who have started to center such studies at those universities. The Genetics Core has procured very large cohorts of Latino and African American families afflicted with asthma for use genetic studies, and continues to participate in a number of multiinstitutional studies for genome-wide investigations and gene replicative studies. Dr. Burchard, the Core Director, has attained national prominence in recognition of this highly annotated cohort. The remaining cores are supported by smaller amounts of funding, typically to core directors and operators or to help support maintenance contracts for equipment, costs that are difficult to recover through recharge or other mechanisms. The Imaging Core has made large technical strides in providing optical support for live lung and lymph node imaging. SABRE funding is concentrated on developing novel technologies to enhance live imaging capacity, to establish site-specific photo-ablation technology and to extend imaging capacity to sections of human lung. Participation in the Imaging Center has grown to support over 166 users involving 66 Principle Investigators from 26 different Department or Organized Research Units at UCSF. Substantial training of new users and software development to support these new technologies is

6

an ongoing part of the mission. Thus, in a relatively short time, the Imaging Core has become an integral and productive component of the scientific community at UCSF. The Functional Genomics Core, led by Dr. David Erle, has used SABRE support to enable improved technologies for high throughput sequencing, CHIP-seq, microRNA profiling and RNAseq. This has proven particularly useful in Dr. Ansel’s studies in identifying important regulatory RNAs involved in T cell fate and effector function. SABRE support for these technology cores has been leveraged to attract NIH funding: the Animal Physiology Core is additionally supported by technical core funds from NIAID Asthma and Allergic Disease Cooperative Research Center (Sheppard, Krummel, Woodruff, Erle) and the Imaging Core is additionally supported by technical core funds supported by a PPG from NHLBI to assess the microenvironments induced by lung inflammation (Caughey, Krummel, McDonald). In each case, funds from the SABRE Innovative Grants program initiated projects that led to the organization and support for these programmatic awards, indicative of the leverage enabled by a focused efforts from relatively small groups of investigators. Support for the Flow Cytometry Core, which is largely self-supported and self-operated, is restricted to financial help with maintenance contracts, data base management and emergency laser failure, issues that are incompletely covered through recharge or grant-based mechanisms. These Cores achieve substantial leverage of resources, and over the past 2 years contributed to at least 12 successfully funded extramural grants, 7 postdoctoral fellowships and over 40 peerreviewed manuscripts. Recharge systems have been set in place for the Functional Genomics Core, the Mouse Physiology Core and the Flow Cytometry Core, and these are constantly reassessed to ensure that fiscal accountability is maintained such that these services are not only sustained, but enhanced by upgrading and enabling new technologies.

Airway Clinical Research Center The Airway Clinical Research Center (ACRC) (see Figure) is a customized space of 3500 sq ft. located on the 13th floor of the UCSF Medical Center. The Airway Center comprises 5 separate testing rooms for history and physical examination, phlebotomy, allergen skin tests, spirometry and methacholine challenge. This center also has a research bronchoscopy suite, a sample processing lab, and administrative space for twelve research coordinators and six research fellows. All of this space is dedicated to clinical research in airway disease; there is no clinical patient activity in this space. The Airway Clinical Research Center has fully equipped exam rooms for conducting pulmonary function testing, research bronchoscopy, participant interviews and specimen collection and processing.

The ACRC has 12 research coordinators, a part time nurse, and a data manager. The model for these staff is that individual coordinators take ownership of specific research studies and

8

manage that study in terms of recruitment, study visits, and biospecimen handling. Weekly meeting of Airway Research Center staff and faculty involve presentations of specific projects and administrative and quality assurance meeting focused on compliance with local, state, and federal regulations governing research in human subjects. The ACRC enables approximately 1200 subject visits per year. The ACRC supports four large NIH research programs that involve multicenter network collaborations in asthma and COPD, thus supporting large numbers of patient visits per year: (i) AsthmaNet - U10 HL098107 (Boushey, Lazarus, Cabana [Pediatrics]) (ii) Severe Asthma Research Program (SARP) - 1U10HL109146-01 (Fahy). (iii) COPD Clinical Research Network (CCRN) (Lazarus) (iv) SPIROMICS (Woodruff) - N01-08-08, The goal of this study is to identify sub-populations and intermediate outcome measures in COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) through a large multi-center longitudinal study. The Center also supports the clinical components of multiple other NIH awards involved with various aspects of the SABRE Center, including: (i) 1P01HL107202 (Fahy) 8/1/12 - 6/30/17 NIH/NHLBI. Program Project Grant. Innate and Adaptive Immune Responses in Th2-high Asthma. Fahy, Ansel, Woodruff, Locksley. (ii) 2U19AI077439-06 (Sheppard) 4/1/13 - 3/31/18 NIH/NIAID.

Role of Th2 and non-Th2 Inflammation in Airway Smooth Muscle Remodeling in Asthma. In addition to NIH grants, the ACRC is a resource for industry supported clinical research in

9

airway disease at UCSF. Recent industry sponsors have included Genentech, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Roche and research alliances with Gilead and Pfizer are pending. The hope is to expand this aspect of SABRE-industry interactions as a platform for successful movement of target identification and pathophysiology onwards to drug and therapeutic development pathways. SABRE Center core scientists and the Director meet quarterly with Dr. Fahy and colleagues to further communication, planning and collaborative investigations of human asthma patients. Each of the core scientists is already involved in ongoing or planned investigations with translational physician scientists in the ACRC, confirming that this will serve as an important integrative unit for translational interests of the SABRE Center. There is also a monthly research conference for SABRE/ACRC investigators at the Parnassus site to promote interactions and collaborations. Successful competition for extramural support Evidence-based metrics for success will be important in leveraging continuing support in the future, including from philanthropic entities. Fund-raising will require evidence for metrics of success, including our capacity to attract extramural research dollars to the community, to contribute high-impact papers that establish novel paradigms in the asthma research arena, to attract new investigators into the field and, ultimately, to drive the discovery of new therapies that affect the disease. Although therapeutic discoveries will take time, we believe we can point to successes in these evidence-based metric achievements over this past year. Since the initial recruitment of Dr. Liu and the additions of Drs. Ansel, Shin and Allen, we have seen a steady climb in the amounts of external funds accrued by the core five SABRE investigators in support of their research efforts. This has occurred despite the difficult funding climate, and attests to the capacity of the Center to serve as a nidus for successful asthma basic research. As demonstrated by our ability to obtain a Program Project this year by capitalizing on the access and expertise of colleagues in the Airway Clinical Research Center, we believe that building multicomponent research teams to take on difficult problems associated with asthma will prove a successful strategy for maintaining this funding momentum.

Growth in accumulated extramural funds by the five core SABRE investigators In addition, activities related to the SABRE Center resulted in publication of numerous manuscripts and contributions to many successfully awarded grants and fellowships of various types to investigators at UCSF. These are catalogued in the individual Core and Program Reports. Highlighted SABRE Center-supported papers with impact on asthma-related research in 2012-13 Cheng LE, K Hartman, A Roers, MF Krummel, RM Locksley. 2013. Perivascular mast cell dynamically probe cutaneous blood vessels to capture IgE. Immunity 38:166-175. Although cross-linking of IgE bound to high-affinity receptors on mast cells and basophils has been associated with the acute pathology of allergy and asthma, the mechanism by which tissue mast cells acquire serum IgE remains unclear. Using molecularly designed reagents and live tissue imaging, this manuscript demonstrates that mast cells positioned along small cutaneous blood vessels can extend elongated cellular processes between endothelial capillary cells into the blood stream, where they can extract IgE directly upon binding to surface IgE receptors. Efforts are underway to discover the molecular determinants of this probing behavior in hopes of uncovering new strategies for blocking this process that is central to allergic hypersensitivity.

Ansel. 2012. An integrated nano-scale approach to profile miRNAs in limited clinical samples. Am J Clin Exp Immunol 1:70-89. Clinical research is limited by the amounts of material and the heterogeneity of specimens available for study. Standardized methods applicable to analysis of small amounts of material are needed. The manuscript demonstrates a flow cytometric and nano-scale quantitative reverse polymerase chain reaction method that is capable of accurately and reproducibly measuring microRNAs from as few as 100 cells collected in bronchial biopsy specimens from asthma patients obtained in the UCSF Airway Clinical Research Center. The study provides methods that should be applicable to other complex human diseases. Kudo M, AC Melton, C Chen, MB Engler, KE Huang, X Ren, Y Wang, X Berstein, JT Li, K Atabai, X Huang, D Sheppard. 2012. IL-17A produced by αβ T cells drives airway hyperresponsiveness in mice and enhances mouse and human airway smooth muscle contraction. Nature Medicine 18:547-54. The role of IL-17, a cytokine that serves to attract neutrophils to sites of inflammation, in asthma is of increasing interest as clinicians begin to understand non-allergic forms of asthma. Using both mouse and human tissues, the authors here show that IL-17A produced by CD4 T cells in the lung can directly mediate airway smooth muscle hyper-contractility and expose a mechanism related to smooth muscle myosin responsiveness. This study will drive much interest in understanding whether targeting this cytokine or these cells may comprise a therapeutic strategy in some patients with non-allergic asthma. Thornton EE, Looney MR, O Bose, D Sen, D Sheppard, RM Locksley, X Huang, MF Krummel. 2012. Spatiotemporally separated antigen uptake by alveolar dendritic cells and airway presentation to T cells in the lung. J Exp Med 209:1183-1199. How allergens are sampled and processed in the airways is not currently understood. Using genetically altered mice with fluorescent cells and two-photon intravital imaging of the lung, this manuscript demonstrates that inhaled antigens are collected by probing dendritic cells in distal airway spaces, but these cells then migrate proximally to present processed antigen to T cells at branch points along the conducting airways. This finding contributes to our understanding of the pathologic processes that center the pathology of asthma on the conducting airways rather than the more distal air-exchange portions of the lung. Yang Z, BM Sullivan, CDC Allen. 2012. Fluorescent in vivo detection reveals that IgE+ B cells are restrained by an intrinsic cell fate predisposition. Immunity 36:857-72. Despite the importance of IgE in mediating manifestations of atopy, methods for studying the B cells that produce IgE were lacking, thus precluding the examination of this pathway as a potential strategy for intervention. The authors devised a knockin reporter mouse strain that reveals cells that have productively switched the immunoglobulin locus to produce IgE. After confirming that they can now isolate and image IgE-producing B cells in vitro, the authors make the unexpected observation that IgE B cells mature in germinal centers, in contrast to prior dogma, but that expression of a successfully rearranged IgE BCR leads to immediate upregulation of Blimp-1 and egress from the germinal center to become a memory B cell or plasma cell. This study reveals a cell-intrinsic mechanism that serves to limit the extent of

12

somatic hypermutation, and hence affinity maturation, which occurs once a B cell expresses IgE. The possibility that patients with severe atopy might dysregulate this highly controlled pathway is being explored. Organization of the body of this Annual Report As in prior years, we will organize this report by reviewing the SABRE Center activities and updating the core technologies that focus on asthma-related research. We will summarize our interactions with other campus asthma-oriented research projects and provide listings of the seminar speakers of conferences to which we lend support. We will follow this with a listing of the newly funded, pending or submitted grants and publications since the prior annual reports that reflect support from the many SABRE Center activities. We will summarize the Financial Report for the Program. Finally, we will outline the strategies for the coming years and append the current biographical summaries of the members, awardees and participants in the SABRE Center at UCSF. We wish to thank the Sandler family for their vision and support in creating and sustaining the SABRE Center. Support for high-risk, open-ended, basic science is difficult to procure in the current funding and fiscal climate. As noted in the overview above, we can identify many examples where support from the SABRE Center has been leveraged greatly to achieve substantial gains for the scientific and academic study of asthma at UCSF. We are most grateful for the Sandlers’ continued support.

Executive Committee Richard M. Locksley, M.D. The goals of the SABRE Center are to drive innovation in basic asthma research. We approach this goal by establishing a core basic science group dedicated to the study of asthma, by promoting access to state-of-the-art technologies required to drive the research, by integrating their accomplishments across the greater UCSF campus, and by creating opportunities for interactions with translational and clinical investigators studying asthma patients. The Committee includes Dr. John Fahy, the Director of the Airway Clinical Research Center at UCSF, who continues to facilitate interactions between SABRE members and the activities of the Clinical Research Center. The Executive Committee is constituted to provide the Director with counsel regarding issues of scope, direction and execution. The Executive Committee played a major role in the recruiting faculty to the SABRE Center and provides oversight in sustaining progress towards the overall goals of the Center.

Locksley, M.D. Professor, Departments of Medicine and Microbiology & Immunology Investigator, Howard Hughes Medical Institute UCSF 513 Parnassus Avenue Medical Sciences, S-1032B, Box 0795 San Francisco, CA 94143-0795 Tel: 415-476-3087 Fax: 415-502-5081 Website: Cancer Center Immunology Graduate Program Pulmonary & Critical Care Division Howard Hughes Medical Institute Virology & Microbial Pathogenesis Dr. Locksley is the Director of the Sandler Asthma Basic Research Center (SABRE) and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator. He is a Professor in the Departments of Medicine and Microbiology & Immunology. He received his undergraduate degree in biochemistry from Harvard and his M.D. from the University of Rochester. After completing his residency at UCSF, he trained in infectious diseases at the University of Washington. Prior to his position as director of the SABRE Center, Dr. Locksley served 18 years as the Chief of the Division of Infectious Diseases at UCSF Medical Center. Dr. Locksley is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Dr. Locksley's laboratory focuses on mechanisms by which the immune system becomes organized in stereotyped ways against discrete types of challenges. This involves the differentiation of naïve helper T cells to distinct types of subsets that produce different kinds of cytokines, key effector molecules of the immune system. In turn, these different T cells subsets work with different kinds of innate cells, including neutrophils, eosinophils, macrophages and others, to mediate immunity. Properly executed, such responses mediate protection against infectious organisms or repair of damaged tissues, but, when dysregulated, these immune responses lead to disease, including asthma. Dr. Locksley’s laboratory investigates immunity using mice genetically engineered to report cytokines expressed during the different types of immune responses. This approach reveals the shared expression of important cytokines by both innate and adaptive immune cells. Using these methods, the laboratory participated in recent discoveries of innate lymphoid type 2 cells, which represent a previously unstudied cell now implicated in allergic immunity. The laboratory also revealed a novel mechanism by which cutaneous mast cells capture IgE from blood. The laboratory continues to study the role of chitin, a structural component of many allergens – including dust mites, cockroaches, shellfish and molds – as well as helminthes, in inducing infiltration of cells

He completed his B.S. in Biology at MIT, and then his Ph.D. at UCSF in the Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program in the laboratory of Jason Cyster, with the support of a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Predoctoral Fellowship. Dr. Allen was then selected as the first Sandler-Newmann Foundation UCSF Fellow in Asthma Research, giving him the opportunity to attain principal investigator status and to develop an independent research program in asthma immediately after obtaining his Ph.D. He was recently hired into a tenure-track Assistant Professor position at UCSF. Dr. Allen’s research in the SABRE center focuses on the cellular immune response in asthma. He is using his expertise in cutting-edge two-photon microscopy to visualize interactions among cells in the lungs as well as in lymphoid organs that ‘prime’ cells for immune responses in the respiratory tract. A particular emphasis of his research is on the development and function of IgE antibodies that contribute to allergic responses. IgE has been shown to be important in human asthma, yet little is known about the events leading to IgE production after inhaling allergen. The major goals of the research are to: 1) Develop innovative new mouse models of asthma that will be useful for studies of IgE antibody responses to inhaled allergens. 2) Define the early events leading to allergic sensitization and IgE antibody production after inhalation of allergen. 3) Characterize the interactions among inflammatory cells in the lung in asthma and define the features of the microenvironments in which these interactions occur.

He completed a B.S. in biochemistry at Virginia Tech, a Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences at UCSF, and postdoctoral training at the Immune Disease Institute at Harvard Medical School. His laboratory in the Sandler Asthma Basic Research Center focuses on the regulation of gene expression in the immune system. MicroRNAs (miRNA), transcription factors, and epigenetic regulation shape the gene expression programs that determine cell identity and function. The Ansel lab studies how these molecular mechanisms work together to control lymphocyte development, differentiation, and function in immunity. We use in vitro cell differentiation systems, mouse genetics, disease models, and gene expression analyses in cells from human clinical samples to unravel the regulatory networks that underlie immunity and immune pathology, especially allergy and asthma. Our primary experimental system is the differentiation of helper T cells, the central coordinators of adaptive immune responses. Upon immune activation, naïve CD4+ T cells can differentiate into several different helper T cell effectors subtypes (e.g. Th1, Th2, Th17, iTreg, Tfh, etc.). These lineages are defined by their characteristic gene expression programs and mediate distinct immune functions. As such, proper regulation of the lineage decisions of helper T cells critically determines the development of protective immunity against a great diversity of pathogens, and improper or exaggerated responses contribute to the development and pathology of autoimmune diseases, chronic inflammation, allergy, and asthma. We and many others have documented how these gene expression programs are controlled by external factors from other cells and the environment, inducible and lineage-specific transcription factors, the cis-regulatory DNA elements to which they bind, and epigenetic modifications that constrain chromatin accessibility at those sites. Active projects in the laboratory aim to determine the function of individual miRNAs in regulating helper T cell differentiation and immune function, and the regulation of the miRNA pathway itself during immune responses. Naive CD4+ T cells that cannot

24

Sandler Asthma Basic REsearch Center produce any miRNAs exhibit reduced cell division and survival in response to immune stimuli. Surprisingly, they also undergo rapid unrestrained differentiation into effector cells. We have developed a screening technology that allows us to rapidly determine which specific miRNAs regulate each of these T cell behaviors, and a high throughput nanoscaled pipeline for determining miRNA expression patterns in small clinical samples, including sorted T cell subsets from the airways of human asthmatic subjects. In addition, we discovered that T cells rapidly reset their miRNA repertoire upon activation. This process that involves ubiquitination and degradation of Argonaute proteins, but the signaling mechanisms and the fate of associated miRNAs remains unknown. This rapid change in miRNA expression may be important to allow T cells to change their gene expression programs and develop effector functions. Lab Objectives 1) To define the molecular mechanisms that control miRNA homeostasis, and determine how the miRNA repertoire is so dramatically remodeled during T cell activation. 2) To characterize the function of individual miRNAs that regulate T cell differentiation and immune effector functions. 3) To examine the helper T cells in the blood and inflamed lungs of asthma patients for differences in functional effector subset representation and the expression of miRNAs that may contribute to their pathogenic properties in human asthma.

He obtained his B.S. in Biology from University of Science and Technology of China and his Ph.D. in Molecular Biology from University of Missouri. He did postdoctoral research on the biology of nitric oxide (NO) at Duke University Medical Center. Dr. Liu’s laboratory focuses on enzymatic deactivation of NO bioactivity and its role in asthma and other diseases. NO plays important roles in virtually every biological system. NO regulates functions of numerous proteins through S-nitrosylation, the covalent addition of NO to cysteine thiol. Through the study of S-nitroso-glutathione reductase (GSNOR), the key protein for denitrosylation in cells, Dr. Liu and colleagues have demonstrated that S-nitrosylation and its deactivation exert critical functions in systematic inflammation, asthma, cancer, and many other physiological and pathological processes. GSNOR and asthma It has been demonstrated with GSNOR-deficient (GSNOR-/-) mice that increased S-nitrosylation from GSNOR deficiency in a model of allergic asthma does not affect immune responses but abolishes airway hyperresponsiveness. Dr. Liu’s laboratory is investigating the mechanism of S-nitrosylation-dependent protection to understand a key question in asthma: How do allergic immune responses cause airway hyperresponsiveness? GSNOR and carcinogenesis NO is implicated in tumorigenesis by much circumstantial evidence, but little is known definitively about the mechanisms through which endogenous NO might regulate the behavior of pre-cancerous or cancerous cells. Using GSNOR-/- mice Dr. Liu’s laboratory has discovered that dysregulated S-nitrosylation from GSNOR deficiency inactivates a key DNA repair system and promotes liver cancer (Science Translational Medicine 2:19ra13, 2010). Investigation is underway to expend the findings and to further elucidate molecular mechanisms. New pathways in NO deactivation Dr. Liu and colleagues have demonstrated that GSNOR and flavohemoglobin, the major NO-consuming enzyme, operate together to regulate NO bioactivities and to protect against NO-related toxicity in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisia. They are employing the yeast model to elucidate the roles of additional, novel genes that are required for protection against NO-related toxicity. Homologue proteins are also investigated in animals.

She completed her B.S. and M.S. in Chemistry at Seoul National University, Korea. She received her Ph.D. from Duke University and her postdoctoral training at Yale University as a Jane Coffin Childs Memorial Fund Postdoctoral Fellow. The Shin laboratory is interested in understanding the molecular mechanism and function of dendritic cell-mediated antigen presentation. Dr. Shin has previously found that the antigen-presenting molecule MHCII is ubiquitinated by MARCH1 ubiquitin ligase in dendritic cells, and this ubiquitination mediates MHCII endocytosis and lysosomal degradation. Her laboratory has recently found that the costimulatory molecule CD86 is also ubiquitinated by MARCH1 and that this ubiquitination also mediates endocytosis and degradation of CD86. More recently, Dr. Shin’s laboratory has studied the functional role of this ubiquitination. This study indicates that MHCII ubiquitination is required for proper production of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the thymus. Currently, Dr. Shin is investigating how MHCII ubiquitination contributes to Treg development and whether Tregs generated in MHCII ubiquitination-dependent manner are distinct in their repertoire or function. The Shin laboratory is also interested in understanding the role of the high affinity IgE receptor FceRI expressed in dendritic cells. Although the role of FceRI in the pathogenesis of allergy is well-known, its physiologic role remains unclear. Dr. Shin’s laboratory has recently found that FceRI is constitutively endocytosed and transported to the lysosomes in human dendritic cells and monocytes, and that this FceRI endolysosomal trafficking mediates cellular entry of circulating IgE contributing to serum IgE clearance. These findings suggest that FceRI expressed by dendritic cells and monocytes may play an important role in regulating serum IgE concentration in humans. Her laboratory is currently investigating whether unusually high blood IgE levels found in some human diseases is attributed to the alteration in FceRI endolysosomal trafficking that results circulating IgE not efficiently entering cells but accumulating in the blood. Dr. Shin’s research programs are greatly benefited by many of the excellent core facilities supported by SABRE. Flow cytometry core is being used in a daily basis for most of the projects.

Mouse Physiology and Morphology Core Director: Xiaozhu Huang, M.D. Objective The objective of the Sandler animal physiology and morphology core facility is to provide support to investigators at UCSF and other research institutes for their asthma related research. The core facility has extensive experience in generating and analyzing variety of allergic animal models. Investigators gain insight to the molecular mechanisms of asthma development through either full or partial service provided by the core laboratory. The core also provides training to students, technicians and post-doctoral fellows in techniques relevant to the animal models and their analysis. Accomplishments During the year 2012, the Animal Physiology and Morphology Core provided assistance to many UCSF investigators, including Drs Mark Ansel, Kamran Atabai, Anthony deFranco, David Erle, Xiaozhu Huang, Limin Liu, Steve Nishmura, Jason Rock, Dean Sheppard and Art Weiss for their projects studying airway physiology, immunology, cell and molecular biology and other related areas. The service provided by the core lab has significant impacts on many of these asthma related projects. Dr. Dean Sheppard has been interested in studying biologic role of integrin α9β1, an integrin expressed on airway smooth muscle, in asthma development. The core conducted lung function studies in mice lacking integrin α9β1 specifically in smooth muscle. These mice had increased airway responsiveness in vivo, and loss or inhibition of integrin α9β1 also increased in vitro airway narrowing and airway smooth muscle contraction in murine and human airways. Contraction was enhanced in control airways by the higher-order polyamine spermine or by cellpermeable PIP2, but these interventions had no effect on airways lacking integrin α9β1 or treated with integrin α9β1-blocking antibodies. Enhancement of SSAT activity or knockdown of PIP5K1γ inhibited airway contraction, but only in the presence of functional integrin α9β1. Therefore, integrin α9β1 appears to serve as a brake on airway smooth muscle contraction by recruiting SSAT, which facilitates local catabolism of polyamines and thereby inhibits PIP5K1γ. Targeting key components of this pathway could thus lead to new treatment strategies for asthma. This work has been published in Journal of Clinical Investigation last year. The core assisted Dr. Rosemary Ahnkurst’s group in studying TGFβ activation and signaling in experimental models of allergen-induced asthma as potential therapeutic targets. We show that innate variation within TGFβ1 genetic modifier loci, Tgfbm2 and Tgfbm3, alters disease susceptibility. Specifically, Tgfbm2(129) and Tgfbm3(C57) synergize to reverse accentuated airway hyperresponsiveness caused by low TGFβ1 levels in Tgfb1(+/-) mice of the NIH/OlaHsd strain and the epistatic interaction between Tgfbm2(129) and Tgfbm3(C57) uncouples the inflammatory response to ovalbumin from those of airway remodeling and airway hyperresponsiveness, illustrating independent genetic control of these responses. The study suggests that differential inheritance of genetic variants of Tgfbm genes alters biological responses to reduced TGFβ1 signaling in an experimental asthma model and TGFβ antagonists

for treatment of lung diseases might therefore give diverse outcomes, dependent on genetic variation. This work resulted in a publication last year in Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. The animal physiology core also provides assistance to current as well as former AAF awardees for their asthma related studies. Continuing support of their asthma related projects has been appreciated by many former awardees. Dr. Kenneth Rock is one of the former AAF awardees and continues working on asthma related projects. To help solve one of variable allergen related outcomes (Aspergillus induced pulmonary fibrosis) that his group has encountered, the core performed an Aspergillus sensitized and challenged experiment to prove that mice develop significant lung fibrosis using this model. Dr. Rock’s group is currently working on the project with the helpful information provided by the core. In 2012, we continued our efforts in developing more regimens to suit the needs of investigators. One such effort was to use InExpose aerosol machine (Scireq, Canada) for OVA challenges. Our current intra-nasal OVA challenge has been working very well and produces consistent results but it is not the natural route of sensitization and challenge. Some investigators have expressed interest of using aerosol route for challenge. We then tried 1% OVA aerosol challenge according to the literature but failed to achieve allergen-induced phenotype. We are in the process of trying different dosages and have just obtained preliminary data suggesting 6% OVA may be sufficient to produce an allergen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness and lung inflammation. Training and Integration with Sandler Program The core continues to provide training support for lab members whose PIs are interested in adapting the protocols and techniques that are useful for their studies. In 2012, investigators from multiple laboratories (Labs from UCSF- Drs. Jeffery Cox and David Erle; other research institutes - Dr. Michael Daines at University of Arizona, Dr. Daniel Conrad at Virginia Commonwealth University) sent lab members to the core lab in observing the routine performance and getting hands-on experience using the equipment and protocols. Jamie Sturgill and Jennifer Bradley from Virginia Commonwealth University made a special trip to visit us last year. They spent time observing core lab performing experiments and processing routine samples, and obtained protocols used routinely by the core lab. Currently Dr. Conrad’s group has been able to run lung function analysis in the studies of murine models of allergic asthma for their related studies. Core lab follows-up and communicates with former trainees the continues the information exchange that has benefitted studies for both sides. The animal core director attends the weekly UCSF pulmonary conference, monthly SABRE meeting, AAF and ATS annual meetings. This provides direct interaction between the animal core and investigators who are interested in using the core service. The potential experiments can be discussed and oftentimes can be arranged during the interaction. Future Activities We continually try to improve our techniques and develop allergic model regimens so that we may accommodate the investigators needs. As mentioned above, we have been working on

33

developing protocol using the aerosol machine for allergen challenge. Our preliminary data suggest that 6% OVA aerosol for 30 minutes once a day for 3 days may produce significant OVA-induced lung function change and lung inflammation. Further study is needed to validate our observation. We still need to improve the consistency and reduce the variability of our house dust mite model. We have been paying close attention to our key equipment. FlexiVent makes the key lung function measurement possible. The machine model we are using has been discontinued and technical service will soon no longer be available. With the continuing support from the SABRE foundation, the animal physiology and microscopy core facility will continue to provide UCSF investigators with high quality service critical to our research community. Grants and Publications: Grant The animal physiology and morphology core continues to work with investigators at UCSF as well as at other research institutes to provide consultations and support letters for their grant applications. Core director generally meets in person (with local investigators) or has phone conversations (with outside institutions) with grant applicants in helping them understand the principles of allergic animal models and carefully discuss the experimental protocols, animal numbers and final outcomes. The AAF applicants very often have not worked with asthma, and some not even with lung disease. For applicants who propose an in vivo animal experiment, a brief description of an allergic animal model will be provided so investigators can incorporate it into their proposals. We not only help investigators funded by NIH, AAF and other grants but also, if they are funded, make commitments to collaborate with investigators who submit proposals. The core staff receive direct salary support from Sandler foundation, NIAID and our recharge system. Publications 1.

Virginia Commonwealth University, 2Henry Ford Health, 3 Karolinska Institutet, *AAF awardee Personnel Andrea Barczak (manager), Rebecca Barbeau (SRA), and Joshua Pollack (biostatistician) continue to provide outstanding service to core users. In aggregate, they have over 20 years of experience as core staff. New technologies The SABRE functional genomics core is a resource for the UCSF community (and beyond); we collaborate on more than 65 projects per year. SABRE support is critical for development and implementation of new methods. Priority is given to development of methods required for studies requested by SABRE investigators. Although microarrays continue to be a very useful and cost effective method for genome-wide profiling of mRNAs and miRNAs, recent advances in sequencing technology offer substantial advantages over arrays for most global mRNA and miRNA profiling projects. RNA-Seq has superior sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility; offers the potential for novel RNA discovery (especially important for non-coding RNAs); and can be used for analyzing transcript variation (alternative splicing and polyadenylation, allelespecific expression). Supply costs for RNA-Seq continue to drop and are now roughly similar to costs for array experiments. Over the past two years, an increasing number of users have switched to RNA-Seq technologies. We have seen a rise from 2 projects in 2011 to 13 projects in 2012 and anticipate that this trend will continue to grow at a rapid rate. This past year, we have focused the majority of our efforts on implementing the following next generation sequencing services: 1) methods for analysis of partially degraded or FFPE RNA, 2) improving sample throughput for small RNA-Seq and 3) continued development of state-of-the-art methods for analyzing next generation sequencing data. 1) RNA-Seq analysis of degraded RNA: Standard mRNA-Seq library construction methods contain an initial poly(A) RNA selection to remove highly abundant rRNA species before amplification; this method presents a challenge for clinical samples where degradation can be a common problem. We have employed an alternative non-poly(A) based ribosomal depletion method (Ribo-Zero, Epicentre, Inc.) to accommodate samples that have compromised RNA integrity. An additional benefit of this technology is that it recovers the 5’and 3’ ends of both mRNAs and long non-coding RNAs. This is an attractive alternative to standard protocols for investigators who are interested novel gene discovery and expression of lncRNAs. We are currently analyzing data from our first set of ribosomal depleted samples. 2) Improving sample throughput for small RNA-Seq: miRNA expression profiling accounts to approximately 20% of the projects that we process, including studies with Mark Ansel and Prescott Woodruff who are working on determining the miRNA expression patterns that are associated with asthma pathology and response to therapy. Small RNA-Seq library preparation

protocols require a gel purification based size selection step for each sample library. This process is laborious, time consuming, and not amenable to higher-throughput methods. We have implemented a newer library preparation method that allows us to multiplex libraries before gel purification, which cuts down the turn-around time substantially. Additionally, the ability to multiplex small RNA-Seq libraries significantly decreases the associated costs for the sample preparation and sequencing by up to as much as 50%. To date, we have processed over 24 samples using this new method. 3) Development of data analysis pipelines: RNA-Seq data analysis presents many new challenges including alignment of millions of reads to a reference transcriptome (or genome), assembly of read alignments, and development of new algorithms for normalization and statistical analysis of differential expression. Different tools are required to carry out each step of the analysis and the size and complexity of the datasets make the process computationally expensive and time consuming. This past year our biostatistician, Josh Pollack, has made significant progress towards developing pipelines that incorporate state-of-the-art algorithms from publicly available software, thereby streamlining the process and decreasing the turnaround time. We have implemented these new pipelines, and have analyzed data from both mRNA and miRNA studies. NGS data analysis requires substantial processing power and it was essential for us to acquire a new computer. SABRE funding contributed to the purchase of a 12core workstation with 96 GB of RAM and 6TB of disk storage. Plans for the coming year We have optimized protocols for library generation and other steps in the process and now offer comprehensive RNA-Seq services (including library preparation, coordination of sequencing runs, and data analysis), which relieves investigators of the need to develop and optimize protocols in their own laboratories. We have begun a new initiative to reduce turnaround time for RNA-Seq projects. SABRE support allows us to provide a substantial discount to SABRE investigators and in recognition of this support SABRE projects receive higher priority than nonSABRE projects. We will continue to offer assistance with whole-genome analysis of mRNA and miRNA expression and ChIP analysis. In addition to the array-based analyses offered in previous years, we are encouraging investigators to employ next generation sequencing-based approaches (RNA-Seq, small RNA-Seq, and ChIP-Seq) where appropriate. Further work is planned to implement protocols that will allow the following: 1) analysis of very limited amounts of starting material (starting with as little as 5 ng of total RNA), 2) strand-specific library preparation for analysis of non-coding RNAs and antisense transcription and improved annotation of novel genes, and 3) ChIP-Seq library preparation and analysis. We will also continue to implement state-of-the-art methods for analyzing next generation sequencing data. Short-term goals include the development of pipelines for the following: 1) analysis of differential isoform expression, 2) analysis of non-coding RNAs and 3) implementation of visualization tools to display nextgeneration sequencing data more effectively. Training and Integration with SABRE and AAF programs We provide extensive consultation and training for investigators using the core. We meet with each group (PI and other group members, including students and postdoctoral fellows) to help

with project planning. We help with grant preparation, sample size determination, appropriate selection of controls, and RNA extraction protocols. We meet with each group again after the initial data analysis to discuss the results and provide guidance about further analysis. When work is being readied for publication, we assist with preparation of figures and tables and submission of the results to a public database (NCBI’s Gene Expression Omnibus [GEO]). The core director attends the monthly UCSF SABRE Research Conference and the annual AAF meeting. This allows many opportunities for raising awareness about the core services among SABRE and AAF investigators. Although we continue to work with other investigators in order to maintain the high volume needed to operate in an economical manner, SABRE projects receive the highest priority. In late 2012, David Erle (contact PI) and Esteban Burchard (co-PI) submitted a K12 proposal in response to an NIH RFA for “Career Development Programs in Omics of Lung Diseases.” 30 UCSF faculty members with expertise in genomics (and other “omics”) and in asthma and other lung diseases agreed to participate. If successful, this proposal will provide salary support for 2 junior faculty K scholars per year to receive training in applying omics technologies to lung diseases. Grants and Publications Grants The core is now supported by SABRE and by a recharge mechanism, which covers labor and reagent costs for projects performed by the core. Core staff members work closely with investigators as they apply for NIH funding via R01 and other mechanisms. The following list includes asthma-related projects supported by the core that received new NIH funding during the last year and projects now applying for additional funding from NIH: PI

Combined transcriptomics and genomics to find asthma genes in admixed populations (the core has a subcontract to perform RNA-Seq for roughly 800 samples on this grant proposal) The UCSF Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute provided some core funding until July 2011, when CTSI elected not to continue to support any core laboratories. This reduced our nonrecharge funding. Hence continued support from SABRE is critical in allowing us to maintain services and develop new technologies for support of SABRE investigators.

Genetics Core Director: Esteban González Burchard, M.D., M.P.H., Professor of Bioengineering & Therapeutic Sciences and Medicine

Vision: We built a multidisciplinary research center and we are taking a comprehensive approach to asthma research. Our approach integrates gene-environment studies with basic biology, population genetics, social and environmental epidemiology. We built a network of “minority serving” providers to recruit well-phenotyped subjects from throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico. As a result of our efforts we have assembled the largest gene-environment study population of minority children with and without asthma in the U.S. (total sample n = 9,144). Finally, we have recruited two new faculty, Dara Torgerson, Ph.D. and Noah Zaitlen, Ph.D. into the Lung Biology Center. Both scientists are up and coming leaders in their respective fields (described below). We have established the Asthma Genetics Core Facility to facilitate asthma genetic research among Sandler/AAF-sponsored investigators. In keeping with the Mission of the original Sandler-sponsored Asthma Research Program, we have made this resource “Open Source” by having an extensive range of national and international collaborations. We offer investigators a “full service of genetic testing and analyses.” Specifically, we analyze promising candidate genes identified by investigators using biologic material (DNA and plasma) from large wellphenotyped family-based and case-control asthma studies of racially/ethnically diverse subjects. This past year the Genetics Core Facility has focused on three main goals: 1) collaboration 2) well-phenotyped patient recruitment of Latino and African American subjects with and without asthma and 3) faculty recruitment. Accomplishments in 2012: 1) Collaboration: a) UCSF Sandler Program and the AAF: In the era of large “Team Science” the value and importance of collaboration cannot be overstated. We have made the existing cohorts widely available to Sandler sponsored investigators (UCSF Sandler Program and the AAF). The Asthma Genetics Core assists investigators with study design and provides genotyping and expertise with statistical genetic analyses. We also allow our data to be used for replication of promising results from other investigative groups. b) Collaborating Faculty: In 2012 we have collaborated with the following faculty: Ryan Hernandez (UCSF), Carol Ober (Chicago), Kathleen Barnes (John’s Hopkins), Evan Eicher (University of Washington), Jim Gauderman (USC), Charles Rotimi (NIH/NHGRI), Noah Zaitlen (UCSF), Mario Castro (Washington University), L. Keoki Williams (Henry Ford), Fernando Martinez (University of Arizona), Max Seibold (National Jewish), Neil Trivedi (UCSF), Rajesh Kumar (Children’s Memorial Hospital, Chicago), Pedro Avila (Northwestern University), Stephanie London (NIEHS), Scott Weiss (Harvard), and Kathy Giacomini (UCSF). We have contributed our data to national and international consortiums to study asthma, obesity and eczema.

c) We have generated genome wide association studies (GWAS) data from our study populations and provided our results as in silico replication to supplement initial findings for several Sandler investigators. In addition, we have worked closely with asthma investigators throughout the country to advance the field by collectively working towards testing and replicating novel genetic associations identified from basic science models (animal and human) to GWAS. d) EVE Asthma Consortium: This past year we participated in the NHLBI-sponsored EVE Asthma Consortium, which was published in Nature Genetics. The lead author, Dara Torgerson, was recently recruited to UCSF as an Assistant Professor in the Lung Biology Center. Admixture Mapping Meta-analysis in EVE: Through our work with the EVE Consortium we are currently working on a follow-up to the original GWAS to find additional loci via ancestry association or admixture mapping. We have combined data from the African-American and Hispanic/Latino studies within EVE (9 studies in total), comprising over 7,000 individuals. For all individuals we have estimated local ancestry using LAMP algorithms to have locus-specific ancestry calls for all individuals across the genome. The studies comprise a diverse group of designs including case-control, triobased, and pedigrees. Within this project we have developed novel ancestry imputation methods as well as methods for admixture mapping on large datasets. For replication we have leveraged our study, GALA II, as it is the largest study of asthma with genome-wide data in U.S. minority pediatric populations. We identified SMAD2 as a novel risk factor for asthma in Latino populations. Our results were supported by differential gene expression between children with and without asthma. We did not find the same association in African or European Americans. The manuscript has been approved by all co-authors and will be submitted to Nature Genetics by January 2013. e) Genentech (Joe Aaron): We have entered into a collaboration with Genentech to test the ability to use biomarkers (periostin) and clinical phenotypes to stratify children with asthma into high and low drug responders to Genentech’s new anti-IL13 therapy (Lebrikizumab). f) Gene expression: We are collaborating with Mario Castro (Washington University) and Max Seibold (National Jewish Health Center) to compare gene expression in lung tissue/lavage vs. nasal epithelia vs. peripheral blood. We hypothesize that nasal epithelial tissue gene expression will be a good proxy for gene expression in the lung. If our hypothesis is correct, it will facilitate large scale sampling of nasal epithelial tissue from hundreds of children with and without asthma. 2) Patient Recruitment: We recruited three study populations: 1) the Genetics of Asthma in Latino Americans (GALA I) Study (parent-child trios), a family-based study of Puerto Rican and Mexican children with asthma 2) the Genes-environments & Admixture in Latino Asthmatics (GALA II) Study, a case-control study at 5 urban centers across the U.S. and 3) the Study of African Americans Asthma, Genes & Environments (SAGE), a case-control study in the San Francisco Bay Area. Combined we now have the largest pediatric asthma

genetic study of Latino and African American pediatric populations in the U.S. (n > 9,144 children with and without asthma). We are continuing to recruit and better characterize children with and without asthma. In collaboration with Genentech we are performing a longitudinal study of asthma treatment and control in a subset of the study population (n~1000). All subjects are extensively well phenotyped. We have detailed clinical measurements (spirometry, maximal bronchodilator response testing, methacholine challenge, skin prick testing, and IgE measurements, exhaled nitric oxide, skin color reflectance), biologic specimens (serum, RNA, DNA and nasal epithelia), geocoded air pollution measures and questionnaire-based information regarding environmental and social risk factors. We have genome-wide data available for all GALA I and II participants. We will combine biomarkers and sub-phenotypes to identify high and low drug responders to anti-IL13 therapy. 3) Faculty Recruitment: We have recruited two young scientists, who have significant research experience in minority populations and asthma genetics. Dara Torgerson, Ph.D. led the largest genomewide meta-analysis of asthma in the U.S., which was published in Nature Genetics. She trained with Drs. Carole Ober and Dan Nicolae of the University of Chicago. We also recruited Dr. Noah Zaitlen from the Harvard University School of Public Health. His expertise is gene-environment interactions and he will apply his theoretical methods to study asthma in minority populations. Financial Support: We have been successful at leveraging Sandler funding with NIH and industry support. The aforementioned efforts are supported by the equivalent of four NIH RO1 grants. Active Grants: 1. 1R01 HL104608-01A1: subcontract ~ $400,000, September 28, 2011-June 30, 2015, PI: Barnes 2. 1P60 MD006902: ~$1 million, August 27, 2012-February 28, 2017. PI, BibbinsDomingo. Project PI: Burchard. Grants under review: 1. K24 - Epigenomics of tobacco exposure on asthma severity among minority children 2.

Cell Sorting and Analysis Core Director: Zhien-Wang Objective Flow cytometry is necessary to characterize, purify and separate cell types based on surface characteristics. The objective of this core is to provide technical support and access to highly sophisticated instruments for persons at UCSF performing asthma-related research. Contributions from SABRE Center have been partnered with the Diabetes Center, individual investigator resources and institutional resources to support the space and maintenance of the core largely through an integrated re-charge system. Students and postdocs participate in training in the core at an area where training can be centralized in order to facilitate maintenance and oversight. Accomplishments The Core is located in S1067 in proximity to Dr. Locksley’s laboratory and centrally within the Immunology Program corridor above the SABRE Center space in HSE201. Scheduling is online and suitably trained individuals can access instruments in the core 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The space offers an array of instrumentation that offers unique capabilities in data acquisition and enhances the depth of technical capacity: Two Beckman-Coulter MoFlo XDP High-Speed sorters with 4-laser, 17-color, 15-parameter capability centered around 488 nm, 532 mm, 561 mm and 647 nm multi-line air-cooled lasers. Two side-by-side instruments has enabled operation by a single individual, thus optimizing use and minimizing cost. Becton-Dickinson Biosciences LSR II Flow Cytometer with 4-laser, 10-color, 12-parameter capability centered around 488 nm OPSL, 637 nm (red), 403 nm (violet) and 535 nm (green) lasers. Total use > 1600 hrs. Becton-Dickinson Biosciences LSR II Flow Cytometer with 4-laser, 10-color, 12-parameter capability centered around 488 nm OPSL, 637 nm (red), 403 nm (violet) and 535 nm (green) lasers is maintained by the core but stationed in HSE201 in the SABRE core space. Total use > 800 hrs. Training and Integration with Sandler Program Use of the core has stabilized over the past 2 years. Over the last 12 months, >45 laboratories at the UCSF Parnassus and Mission Bay campuses have used the facility 2 or more times, with 32 labs over 3 times. In turn, the numbers of users per laboratory has also stabilized at 2.3 users/lab, and reflects use by graduate students and postdocs. Nine of the labs are direct participants in the SABRE Center, and a number of the other users are affiliated investigators examining aspects of

inflammation and tissue injury of relevance to asthma. All of the core SABRE Center scientists participate in the Sorting Core. Budgetary requests from the SABRE Center are now restricted to acute laser failure and maintenance, as personnel and renewables have all been covered through recharge mechanisms. Grants and Publications Data acquired in the Cell Sorting and Analysis core has contributed to almost a quarter of the publications listed in the bibliography for the current annual report.

Microscopy Core Managing Director: Kaitlin Corbin Faculty Director: Matthew Krummel, Ph.D. Objective/Mandate The objective of the SABRE Microscopy Core is to advance light-based imaging of the lung and associated tissues. Our core operates under the premise that a critical understanding of diseased tissues and organs such as the asthmatic lung will come with the study of the activities of component players (cell types, effector molecules) in their native environment. We also recognize that many existing imaging methods may require some additional development or elaboration before they can be successfully applied in studies of lung biology. We act both as a repository/resource of imaging technology and expertise and to develop novel technologies. We represent an emerging evolving example of a ‘Co-laboratory’ in which expertise in this active area of scientific progress is shared rather than arbitrarily monetized. Strategic Goals The efforts of this center are being directed toward improved imaging technologies for cells of the normal and allergic lung. In 2013, the core will be trying to advance three specific goals for intravital imaging. Note that in the 2012 period, we have miniaturized and made less-invasive our lung-stabilization rigs, have implemented a new microscope with photoablation and photoactivation capability and have optimized mouse models for imaging increased numbers of cell types at the same time. 1. To provide stabilized access to larger airways and trachea of living mice, using a stabilized gradient- refractive index (GRIN) lens. 2. To develop software processing platforms for converting >100GB datasets into images and parametrized object-based data for rapid scoring of immune and cell-cell dynamics within large and long-time course experiments. 3. To provide improved surgical stabilization to image lungs over many days with repeated visits to the same regions. 4. To extend usage of the human lung imaging method through expanded facility capacity and training/sample processing capabilities and through collaboration with asthma researchers with access to primary biopsy material. 5. To provide ongoing technical and instrumentation support to the UCSF (and beyond) Asthma community in order to put existing and emerging imaging technologies to practical use in the study of asthma.

Organization The SABRE microscopy core is contained within the Biological Imaging Development Center (BIDC). The larger BIDC is an interdisciplinary center configured to assemble, test, and apply emerging light microscopy techniques and technologies. The BIDC is designed to serve two roles: a conduit for new optical imaging technology & as a site for new technology development. As part of its role as a conduit for new optical imaging technology the BIDC also houses a ‘incubator’ program that helps investigators who are willing to share equipment to have the instrument in a setting where sharing of the instrument is simplified. The SABRE center is currently one of the major supporters for this campus-wide imaging initiative and now holds major ‘stakes’ in confocal and 2-photon instruments in addition to driving key development initiatives. SABRE affiliated labs and investigators enjoy privileged access to both the SABRE microscopy core and the larger BIDC. This center is managed by a managing director (Kaitlin Corbin) under the supervision of a Faculty Director (Max Krummel) and an oversight committee representing many of the key stakeholders on campus. Current Usage Currently there are 208 registered users of the BIDC. These users represent 72 principal investigators or labs. These labs are drawn from 26 departments or organizational units. In 2012, 42 new users from 24 labs were trained. All users received some degree of training on center instruments or image processing stations. Many users are trained on multiple instruments. Most of this training is done on an individual basis and reflects the differences in each users experience, aptitude and project needs. After initial trainings BIDC staff continue to consult and assist with projects on and individual basis. Users are free to ask questions and get assistance as needed-- we don’t charge for our time through recharges and projects are essentially ‘collaborations’. We have specifically trained users from the following labs: Baraban   German   Locksley   Noble   Bluestone   Kajimura   Looney   Ou   Chapman   Klein   Lowell   Shin   Craik   Krummel   McQuillen   Szoka   Debnath   Laird   Muschen   Weaver   Fahy   Lanier   Nishimura   Willenbring   Recent Accomplishments Increased Stability and 24-hours of continuous lung imaging. Using a 3D printer in the facility, purchased with 50% SABRE funds in 2011, we developed a series of protoype stabilization rigs in which only a small incision need be made in order to gain access to the lung. After extensive testing, we found a rig that cams between two ribs and allows for superior survival of animals over long-term imaging. This rig and the associated approaches are being applied to observing the remodeling of the lung that takes place following damage/asthma. It is also suited, and being used for tracking the first hours of clearance of metastatic cancer cells in lung vasculature.

Photoablation and Photoactivation: In 2012, we extensively tested and subsequently purchased, microscopes with both a single-photon and two-photon ablation lasers that now allow us to purposefully modulate biology in the lung using spots of light. This is being developed as a way to determine which cells are critical for the ongoing biology in allergic lungs. We were able to obtain grant money for this (NIH S10) as a result of preliminary data generated in this SABREfunding facility. Introduction of demo equipment, (see below) and establishment of SOPs and training. This year, we served as a demo site for a Nikon ‘STORM’ microscope as well as the Zeiss &710MP. As with other demos in the past, we negotiated with vendors to ensure that equipment was onsite for at least one month (typically much longer). Space We maintain instruments and development tools in three ‘core’ rooms in Medical Sciences S11 and we also maintain additional microscopes in 6 additional sites throughout the campus, including behind the animal barrier.

A major push in the next year will be to implement a stabilized gradient- refractive index (GRIN) lens-based system for real-time analysis of lung trachea and large branching airways. We have obtained two such lenses and have recently completed an assembly for the 6-axis positioning of this as well as the application of mild suction. We will be applying this to model tissues first but then progressing to allergic lungs. 2. The field of intravital imaging in particular has begun to recognize the value of collecting data over vast 3 dimensional spaces over extended time-periods. We have been innovating our highspeed two-photon rigs to accommodate this but have reached a limit in processing. As datasets begin to exceed 100GB per run, loading data into memory, rendering it and processing it to

quantify data has reached a limit with current tools. Our in-house software programmer, Henry Pinkard, has been developing methods to rapidly parameterize data to reduce complexity for feature-tracking and analysis of cell-cell contacts. This work will expand in 2012. 3. In 2012, we will be taking two steps toward applying subcellular imaging to human tissues directly. First, we are continuing to evolve a ‘live biopsy’ method. Second, we are collaborating with the local and recently funded AADCRC (NIH Asthma consortium) to develop novel protein affinity reagents to specifically label and track key populations within the lung. This work will expand into supporting imaging of bronchial pinch biopsies over the next five years. 4. We plan to continue to provide ongoing technical and instrumentation support to the UCSF (and beyond) Asthma community in order to put existing and emerging imaging technologies to practical use in the study of asthma. Training and Integration with Sandler Program As noted in previous updates, the center aims to provide ongoing technical and instrumentation support to the UCSF (and beyond) Asthma community. Specifically our goal is to put existing and emerging imaging technologies to practical use in the study of asthma. This year, we have specifically undertaken training of Peck and Wong in performing lung-based assays from start to finish so that they may be able to undertake experiments for/with new users that may not have experience with these assays. This is particularly important in some of the more complicated procedures in which technical expertise is critical to the success of the experiment. We have taught live lung imaging techniques to visitors from Michael Cahalan’s lab (UC Irvine) and from Paul Kubes’ lab (University of Calgary). To introduce imaging advances within the wider community, the core also sponsors a recurring pizza-talk at which groups from the Bay Area and beyond present novel imaging technology and advances. Topics this year have included live lung imaging, 3D printing and design, Multidimensional analysis, and in vivo optical imaging.

Evolving Microenvironments in Airway Inflammation Program Director: George H. Caughey, M.D. Program Project Grant HL024136 is nearing completion of its 33nd year, the third of a planned five years of interdisciplinary study of airway inflammation competitively renewed on May 11, 2010. Each of the component projects focuses on different populations of airway cells and molecules mediating structural changes in the airway accompanying chronic airway inflammation. The Projects are supported by two Cores, one administrative and one scientific (Tools for Analysis of Airway Inflammation). Summary of Advances this Year Project 1: Roles of Peptidases in Chronic Airway Inflammation (Project Leader: G.H. Caughey) One of Project 1’s major achievements was identification of a substrate and spectrophotometric technique allowing direct assay of prostasin activity in living human airway epithelial apical and basolateral surfaces. Using this substrate in conjunction with selective inhibitors, we established that prostasin anchored to the cell surface by a lipid (glycosylphosphatidylinositol) is the major contributor to surface activity. For example, the apical surface of cultured human bronchial epithelial cells expresses 22% of total, extractable, aprotinin-inhibitable, tryptic activity and 16% of prostasin immunoreactivity. Similar results were obtained using cultured cystic fibrosis bronchial cells. Thus, we established that prostasin is present, mature and active on the apical surface of wild type and cystic fibrosis bronchial epithelial cells, where it can be targeted for inhibition via the airway lumen with the goal of inhibiting epithelial Na+ uptake and therapeutically increasing hydration of airway secretions. We also established differences between prostasins (mouse and human) and other surface epithelial tryptic proteases (matriptase and marapsin) in peptide cleavage preferences, inhibitor susceptibility, and modes of membrane anchoring. In contrast to mouse “knockouts” of prostasin and matriptase, a mouse we created that is genetically deficient of marapsin/Prss27 is fully viable, further supporting different roles despite similar high degrees of evolutionary conservation in vertebrate animals. Additional significant progress was made in testing our hypothesis that variations in inheritance of active tryptase genes is common and that inheritance of dysfunctional alleles is protective with respect to asthma phenotypes. Project 2: Imaging T cell Airway Responses during Inflammation (Project Leader: M.F. Krummel) In this year of funding, we established a labeling method for tracking and imaging incoming monocytes using two genetically-encoded fluorescent proteins. We are now tracking in real-time the differentiation of these cells as they move from alveoli towards airways. Our goal is to reveal key checkpoints that might be exploited for modulating asthma severity and this is a direct offshoot of Aim 1 of this proposal. In a second project driven by our Aim 2, we are tracking the site of Th2 differentiation in asthma models. Preliminary data on this front suggests that IL-4 secretion is first found in lung, suggesting that dendritic cell-T cell interactions at that site modulate the response. Related to this, in the coming year, we will complete our study of the relative sites and dynamics of Th2 and regulatory (Treg) cells in asthma models. Finally, we

began pilot work to examine interactions of allergic T cells with neurons and neuroendocrine cells in the allergic lung. Project 3: Lymphangiogenesis and Angiogenesis in Airway Inflammation (Project Leader: D.M. McDonald) During the past year, an important focus of Project 3 was to determine the extent and distribution of lymphangiogenesis in the inflamed lung and the principal growth factors that drive it. Studies revealed that lung lymphatics increased 5-fold within 2 weeks after Mycoplasma pulmonis infection in mice. Strikingly, most of the new lymphatics were located within bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (BALT) around large bronchi, pulmonary arteries, and pulmonary veins. Few lymphatics were located near distal airways or alveoli under normal conditions or in chronic inflammation. By using selective inhibitors of VEGFR2 and VEGFR-3, experiments revealed that VEGFR-3 signaling was the dominant driving mechanism for lymphangiogenesis after M. pulmonis infection. Because VEGF-C and VEGF-D are the principal ligands for VEGFR-3, these growth factors are likely to mediate lymphangiogenesis under these conditions. VEGFR-2 signaling could make a minor contribution, but the underlying mechanism is still under investigation. VEGF-A appears not to have a significant contribution to lymphangiogenesis in the lung in this model. An essential role of VEGFR-3 signaling in lymphangiogenesis in the respiratory tract was also found in a transgenic mouse model, where IL-1b is overexpressed in the epithelium under doxycycline regulation. Here, lymphatic growth was completely blocked by sequestration of the VEGFR3 ligands VEGF-C and VEGF-D. Because of this key involvement of VEGF-C or VEGF-D, the role of IL-1b was explored further by determining the location of IL-1R1 receptor. These were found to be preferentially located on epithelial basal cells and neuroendocrine cells, at least under normal conditions. The identification of factors that link these epithelial targets of IL-1b to the cellular sources of VEGF-C and VEGF-D is underway. Chemokines that recruit macrophages are being explored as candidates. Scientific Core Activities In this year of funding, we generated new and tittered stocks of mycoplasma for use in the three projects and the Core continues to function in performing genotyping of key mouse strains. The Core also has performed and continues to perform confocal and 2-photon imaging experiments in addition to assisting in keeping these instruments maintained and optimized. Personnel funded by this core component have also permitted pilot projects on tryptase and protease functions in airway remodeling, in neuroendocrine cells and in the dynamics of T cell-dendritic-mast cell interactions. In the next year, the core will also contribute to an effort to perform high-resolution intravital imaging of mouse trachea. Training and Integration with the Sandler Program The SABRE Center continues to provide a focus to bring together all of the groups studying fundamental questions relevant to asthma at UCSF. This focus includes a monthly research meeting of investigators with asthma-focused basic research. The Sandler-supported core also provided advice and training in sensitization and challenge protocols for creating mouse models

NIAID Asthma and Allergic Disease Cooperative Research Center Principal Investigator, Dean Sheppard Objective The major goal of this multi-project U19 Center Grant is to bring studies using human materials and genetically modified mice together in innovative ways in order to define the overlapping and distinctive roles for the cytokines IL-13 and IL-17 in airway pathology of relevance to human asthma. This U19 was successfully renewed after an initial five year funding period, to extend our total recognition as an AADCRC to 10 years. Specific Aims Over the past decade, work from several centers, including our own, has identified critical roles for the effector cytokines, IL-13 and IL-17, in multiple models of allergic asthma. Recent data demonstrating the effectiveness of IL-13 inhibition in a subset of patients with asthma confirms the importance of this cytokine in the human disease. The demonstration that circulating levels of IL-17 and circulating Th17 cells correlate with asthma severity also support a role for IL-17 in patients. It is now clear that IL-13 and IL-17 can be produced by multiple hematopoietic cells in the airways, but that they exert their major disease-producing effects by acting directly on resident airway cells – principally airway epithelial cells and airway smooth muscle. During the current funding period of this AADCRC, we have used mice engineered to mark cytokineproducing cells to identify key roles for innate helper cells (iH2 cells) and Th2 cells as early and sustained sources of IL-13 in allergic airways. We have also identified an important role for antigen-specific alpha-beta T cells as key effectors of airway hyperresponsiveness and demonstrated that IL-17A released by these cells acts directly on murine (and human) airway smooth muscle to enhance contractility through induction of the small GTPase, RhoA and its effector kinase, ROCK2. Finally, we have identified characteristic mRNA expression signatures and a large number of miRNAs differentially expressed in cytokine-stimulated airway epithelial cells, work that has allowed identification of a subset of patients with asthma (Th2 high) who respond favorably to treatment with IL-13 inhibitors. Work in the current funding period has strongly suggested that IL-13 and IL-17 act locally on airway epithelium and airway smooth muscle, and has pointed to the importance of identifying where and when each cytokine is made and released. It is also clear that we need to know which resident cells are the critical responders, and how these responses are regulated in individual patients. The current renewal is organized around 3 Projects driven by 3 Principle Investigators together with a Clinical Subjects and Biospecimen Core for standardizing the conjoined approaches. There are threee Specific Aims associated with the Grant: 1. To identify critical miRNAs that are differentially expressed in the airway epithelium of patients with asthma at baseline and in response to allergen challenge or corticosteroid treatment, to determine the roles of IL-13 and IL-17 in regulating these miRNAs and to identify miRNAs that mediate cytokine-induced mucous metaplasia. (PI: David Erle) 2. To determine the relative importance of responses of airway smooth muscle and epithelium to IL-17 in the induction of airway hyperresponsiveness and to determine the

62

individual and combined effects of IL-13 and IL- 17 on airway smooth muscle contractility and on clinical responses of patients with severe and mild-to-moderate asthma and in response to allergen challenge. (PI: Dean Sheppard) 3. To determine the temporal and spatial dynamics of the interactions of IL-13 and IL-17 producing cells with antigen-presenting cells and with airway epithelium and airway smooth muscle in lung slices from allergen challenged mice and in human airway biopsies from patients with severe and mild-to-moderate asthma and in response to allergen challenge or treatment with corticosteroids. (PI: Matthew Krummel) The proposed studies will draw heavily from our large on-going clinical studies in patients with asthma and from the extensive experience of carefully collecting and utilizing biospecimens from these subjects by Prescott Woodruff, the PI and director of the Clinical Subjects and Biospecimen Core for the Grant. The work will benefit from the extensive experience with microarray and miRNA analysis and the study of mucous metaplasia in human airway epithelium by David Erle, Project Leader of Project 1. We will also benefit from the experience of Dean Sheppard, PI and Project Leader of Project 2 in functional assessment of airway smooth muscle from mice and humans. Finally, we will draw on pioneering approaches to intravital microscopy in lung slices and human airway tissue, developed by Max Krummel, the Project Leader of Project 3. Through our joint efforts, we hope to better understand the dynamics of cytokine release and effects in the asthmatic airway, to develop new strategies to identify clinically relevant sub-phenotypes in asthma, and to develop broadly useful methods to mark and dynamically follow antigen-specific T cell sub-types in readily accessible biopsies from patients with asthma. In addition to addressing the specific important questions raised by this proposal, we expect these methods to be widely useful to investigators in each of the other nationwide Asthma and Allergic Diseases Cooperative Research Centers and to other investigators interested in allergic airway diseases. Training and Integration with the Sandler Center This Center Grant provides training in basic biology and genetics of asthma for approximately post-doctoral fellows and graduate students working in the labs of the project directors. The leaders of each of the Projects and the Core are already actively involved in SABRE. Much of the preliminary data that served as the basis for this successful application was generated at least in part through support from SABRE. The studies using murine models of asthma that supplied preliminary data for project 2 were performed in the SABRE mouse physiology and morphology core and the human genetic studies were performed together with the SABRE human genetics core. Drs. Erle and Krummel, leaders of projects 1 and 3, have each received SABRE Innovative grants in the past that contributed to generation of the preliminary data supporting their project. The infrastructure developed with SABRE participation for the Airway Clinical Research Center provided a critical aspect of support for this grant. This Center grant would not have been likely to succeed without this extensive support from SABRE and thus represents a clear example of leveraging SABRE funds to further enhance research into the basic mechanisms underlying asthma.

Looking to the Future Richard M. Locksley, M.D. The SABRE Center is evolving into a more mature entity. All but one of the recruited faculty/fellow has obtained R01 NIH funding (the one exception has re-submitted with a very close score and received bridge funding from the School of Medicine based on promise of future success), the first recruit has been promoted to Associate Professor and the second, Mark Ansel, was just put up for promotion this summer. The Fellow, Dr. Allen, was recruited to the faculty at the Cardiovascular Research Institute at Mission Bay and will begin to anchor asthma-related research at that site. The first postdocs and graduate students have left to assume positions after training in the SABRE Center. The SABRE Center is recognized nationally by virtue of participation in each of the major asthma multi-institutional efforts of the NIH, including as a member of AsthmaNet (under the leadership of Homer Boushey), the Severe Asthma Research Program (SARP; under the leadership of John Fahy) and the Asthma and Allergic Diseases Cooperative Research Center Network (under the leadership of Dean Sheppard). Members of the SABRE Center were awarded a Program Project Grant to investigate the role of innate lymphoid cells in human asthma (Fahy, Locksley, Ansel, Woodruff). Extramural funding brought in solely by the 5 core basic investigators has more than doubled over the past 5 years; the totals accrued to the entire program have been leveraged to an even greater extent. The conferences and seminars are well attended and publicized. Thus, by a number of metrics, asthma-centered research is now well established and recognized at UCSF. Given the current political climate, it is likely that continued government support for health sciences will be capped or decline, such that unlimited growth from this sector will not be possible. Although we continue to compete aggressively in this arena, prioritizing research dollars from the Foundation will become increasingly important. Highly successful focused research models from the past, such as Bell Laboratories or the Cavendish laboratory at Cambridge University, reveal several commonalities, including small laboratories with a shared research goal; technological innovation; and an ability to change directions quickly to follow-up new insights. Some of these aspects we share, but re-evaluating our strategies will be an important component for moving forward successfully. Ultimately, the SABRE Center will need to move more comprehensively to studies on human patients utilizing human tissues; will need to capture more individuals like Chris Allen early in science when they can be attracted into the field in a lasting and substantive way; will need to move seamlessly into ‘big science’ technologically-driven fields at low cost, necessitating an interactive and integrated group of scientists; will need to partner with industry in ways to move scientific understanding towards interventional efforts that remain cost-prohibitive for a small Center; and will need to grow an endowed financial base that will enable nimble re-direction and follow-up using competitive priorities to fund shifting emergent needs for equipment, personnel (including visiting scientists) and short-term needs in response to windows of opportunity. Funding fixed Cores may not be an optimal resource allocation, as technology advances, cores become increasingly mainstreamed and publicly available, and costs continue to decrease. In short, with the help of both the Executive Board and the Scientific Advisory Board, the

90

SABRE Center will work to develop a Strategic Plan in order to shape the research and financial priorities for the coming decade. Our hope is to continue the trajectory established by the last 5 years on a pathway of increasing success in our mission to understand and ultimately conquer asthma. These challenges we take seriously for the future in order to honor the extraordinary vision of the Sandler family in committing resources to asthma basic research at UCSF. We are most grateful for the opportunity to respond to the challenge and look forward to discoveries that will impact this increasingly prevalent disease of humans.

Dr. Hsieh has been studying traumatic brain injury as part of my DoD grant (above). As part of this work, she showed that TBI results in an influx of macrophage to the brain, and that this influx is primarily dependent on the chemokine receptor, CCR2. This grant has allowed her to study the functional consequences of this response and to develop as an independent investigator. Key persons in addition to Dr. Hsieh and myself include our colleague, Mary Nakamura.
