( A ) Schematic depicting distal, proximal regulatory elements extending 3 kb on either side of CCL2 gene and the linkage disequilibrium (LD) between regulatory polymorphism rs1024611 and the transcribed polymorphism rs13900. rs1024611 is located 2578 base pairs upstream of the CCL2 translation start site and rs13900 is located in the CCL2 3′untranslated region (3′ UTR). ( B ) Allelic expression imbalance (AEI) in heterozygous donors is measured as a ratio of alternative allele (ALT) to reference allele (REF) in a transcribed polymorphism. ( C ) Representative chromatograms obtained following Sanger sequencing of PCR products obtained from genomic DNA (gDNA) and reverse transcription PCR of mRNA (cDNA) from three individuals heterozygous for rs13900. gDNA and mRNA were obtained from peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 3 hr as previously described. The allelic ratios shown were determined by PeakPicker analysis. PeakPicker calculates allelic ratios by dividing the peak height of the alternate allele (rs13900 T allele) by that of reference allele (rs13900 C allele). The gDNA peaks were used for normalization. ( D ) Allelic ratio for cDNA and gDNA in six individuals heterozygous for rs13900 after treatment with LPS for 3 hr. Statistical significance for the difference in the level of expression between the alleles was determined using Student’s t test (p<0.003). Figure 1—source data 1. Numerical data used to generate .

( A ) CCL2 mRNA expression in peripheral monocytes of heterozygous individuals (N=6) after treatment with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 3 hr and then incubated with 5 µg actinomycin D (Act D) for indicated times. mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. Results, normalized to 18S rRNA levels, are expressed as fold-increase over unstimulated cells (CNT). Levels shown in the bar graph represent mean ± SEM of result at time 0 (*p=0.019) versus unstimulated cells. ( B ) CCL2 mRNA half-life, calculated for each condition as the time (in hours) required for the transcript to decrease to 50% of its initial abundance (t 1/2 =ln (0.5)/slope). ( C ) Nascent RNA was isolated from treated monocytes from three individuals in the presence and absence of ActD. Allelic ratio was determined after 4 hr of incubation with or without ActD. Expression of the rs13900 T allele was much higher in ActD-treated samples. The difference between the groups was assessed by ANOVA with Fisher’s least significant difference (LSD) method (*p<0.05, **p<0.005). Figure 2—source data 1. Numerical data used to generate .

( B ) HEK-293 cells were transfected with the equal quantities of CCL2 3′ UTR reporter vectors, and luciferase activity was measured 48 hr later. The relative luciferase activities of the 3′ UTR reporter plasmids were expressed as a percentage reduction in the luminescence when compared to the control vector that was set to 100% after normalizing for the protein content of the lysates. The error bars indicate the standard error of mean, and statistical significance was calculated using two-tailed Student’s t test (*p<0.05) (N=3). ( C ) HEK-293 cells were transfected with either pCMV6-HuR (0.5 μg) or pCMV-Entry (0.5 μg), and after 72 hr they were co-transfected with the two plasmid constructs (0.5 μg). Twenty-four hours after transfection, the relative change in luciferase activity was determined (N=3). ( D ) Cells were co-transfected with 125 pmol HuR siRNA or control siRNA and with the two plasmid constructs (0.5 μg). Twenty-four hours after transfection, the relative change in luciferase activity was determined, normalized to total protein concentration, data from three independent experiments (mean ± SEM; N=3).

( A ) HEK-293 cells were transfected by nucleofection with control and CCL2 3′ untranslated region (3′ UTR) reporter constructs with rs13900 C and T alleles. The nucleofected cells were plated separately and harvested for total RNA isolation or lysed for mRNA level or protein level expression of luciferase, respectively, after 24 hr. The reporter mRNA levels from the transfected 293T cells were quantified by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), and 18S rRNA was used for normalization (N=6). ( B ) The relative luciferase activities of the 3′ UTR reporter plasmids were expressed as a percentage reduction in the luminescence when compared to the control vector that was set to 100% after normalizing for the protein content of the lysates (N=4). ( C ) mRNA translatability was calculated as luciferase activity normalized by the reporter luciferase mRNA level. The error bars indicate the standard error of mean from four independent experiments (N=4), and statistical significance was calculated using ANOVA and post hoc contrast with Fisher’s least significant difference (LSD) method. *p<0.01, **p<0.005.
