Gene expression in Longissimus lumborum in pig using the GenmascqChip (custom 15K Agilent microarray)

ABSTRACT: Genetic variability of transcript abundance in pig skeletal muscle at slaughtering. The 325 pigs (females and barrows) used in gene expression analyses are part of a larger F2 population of 1,000 animals, setup within the framework of a QTL detection program. These animals were produced as a second generation intercross between two commercial sire lines (F016, Pietrain type line, and FH019, synthetic line from Hampshire, Duroc and Large-White founders, FRANCE-HYBRIDES, St Jean de Braye, France).

A family structured population of 325 pigs (females and barrows) was produced as an intercross between 2 commercial sire lines and was subjected to a systematic transcriptome analysis of LM samples obtained shortly after slaughter. Additionally, measurements of meat quality traits of fresh and cooked loin were gathered from the same animals. The transcriptome analysis was achieved by microarray hybridization, using a custom repertoire of 15,000 6mer DNA probes targeting transcripts expressed in ...[more]

Project description:In chronic viral infections such as HIV-1, HBV and HCV, CD8+ T cells may become M-bM-^@M-^]exhaustedM-bM-^@M-^], characterized by progressive functional deficiency. Recently, the underlying mechanisms have been characterized by molecular profiling of virus-specific CD8+ T cells. In contrast, only little is known of self/tumor-specific CD8+ T cells from cancer patients, likely because they are much more difficult to assess. For the first time, we determined the molecular profile of human tumor-specific CD8+ T cells, upon sorting of Melan-A/MART-1 specific T cells directly ex vivo from 19 melanoma patients after vaccination with peptide and CpG. For comparison, we sorted protective T cells specific for the two herpes viruses EBV and CMV. In peripheral blood, we found multiple features of functional effector T cells, with only small but nevertheless significant differences between the three T cell populations, resulting in clean clustering according to antigen specificity. In contrast, Melan-A/MART-1 specific T cells obtained from tumor-infiltrated lymph nodes (TILNs) expressed multiple genes associated with T cell exhaustion, compatible with the known functional deficiencies of T cells in melanoma metastases. We show that individual T cells simultaneously expressed multiple inhibitory receptors implied in functional impairment. Together, the data indicate that in circulation, human tumor-specific T cells have the potential to become competent effector cells. In the tumor environment, however, T cells are exhausted and fail to control malignant disease. Our novel resource data identify mechanisms of functional T cell deficiency in melanoma patients, providing a rational basis for the improvement of immune therapy. 52 samples were measured in two sets of experiments. 4 self/tumor-specific samples from blood were replicated between the first and second sets. Set 1 (32 samples, all from blood): 13 naive samples, 10 EBV-specific samples, 9 self/tumor-specific samples. Set 2 (20 samples): 7 CMV-specific samples from blood, 7 self/tumor-specific samples from TILN, 6 self/tumor-specific samples from blood.
