Transcription profiling of human monocytes infected with Francisella tularensis

ABSTRACT: Differential expression in human peripheral blood monocytes between F. novicida-infected and uninfected, and between Francisella tularensis tularensis isolate Schu S4 and uninfected. The goal was to examine genomewide transcriptional reponses to these two strains, and identify differentially-regulated genes that may help explain the virulence of Schu S4. Experiment Overall Design: Human monocytes were infected with the Schu S4 isolate of Francisella tularensis tularensis (n=4), with F. tularensis subspecies novicida isolate U112 (n=4) or were left uninfected (n=6). Gene expression values were calculated using the gcrma package in R and BioConductor, and limma to identify differentially expressed genes. Submitted here are expression values calculated using R 2.7.1 and BioConductor 2.2 (Fr
