ABSTRACT: We performed RNA-seq analysis to explore the effects of compound #634 (ethyl 2-(benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole-4-sulfonamido)-4,5-dimethylthiophene-3-carboxylate) on RNA transcription of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs).
Project description:To characterize the relationship between IRF5 and Lyn in innate immune responses at a genome-wide scale, we performed gene expression microarray analysis for wild-type (WT), Irf5-KO, Lyn-KO and Lyn/Irf5-DKO bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) with or without 6 h-stimulation with 150 nM CpG-B ODN. We extracted the transcripts that were upregulated by CpG-B ODN in WT BMDCs, further upregulated in Lyn-KO BMDCs and then downregulated in Lyn/Irf5-DKO BMDCs (fold change â?¥ 2, false discovery rate < 0.05). When these 79 transcripts were sorted by their expression levels in Lyn-KO BMDCs, most of the top 20 genes (13 out of 20) were those encoding type I interferons (IFNs), indicating that Lyn particularly suppresses IRF5 induction of type I IFNs. BMDCs from WT, Irf5-KO, Lyn-KO and Lyn/Irf5-DKO mice in a C57BL/6 background were unstimulated or stimulated with CpG-B ODN. Biological triplicate for each genotype were analyzed (24 samples in total).
Project description:To determine the biological mechanisms underlying a dampened immune response to Porphyromonas gingivalis, as compared to Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans challenge, we infected primary BMDCs with either pathogen or left uninfected Total RNA from uninfected BMDCs compared to BMDCs infected with either Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans or Porphyromonas gingivalis
Project description:Atopic asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the lungs that is commonly associated with a Th2 response. The role of allergen-specific IgG in the initiation and development of allergic airway inflammation is still poorly understood; however, a receptor of IgG-immune complexes, CD16, has been demonstrated to promote augmentation of Th2 responses. To identify what genes downstream of CD16 signaling may be contributing to development of a Th2 response, we use ovalbumin (OVA) as our model antigen and compared wildtype and CD16-/- BMDCs that were treated overnight with OVA or OVA-immune complex. C57Bl/6 and CD16-/- BMDCs were treated for 24 hours with OVA or OVA-immune complex and then analyzed for gene expression changes.
Project description:small RNAseq was preformed on Wt bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDC) and miR-155 and miR-146a double knockout (DKO) BMDCs that received Wt exosomes to investigate the differences in transferred miRNA Small RNA profiles were generated from Wt donor BMDCs and DKO BMDCs given Wt exosomes 3 replicates in each group
Project description:Gene Expression changes in BMDCs stimulated with H. pylori vs. E. coli. The hypothesis tested was that the gene expression profile in BMDCs stimulated with H. pylori lysate will be less inflammatory than BMDCs stimulated with E. coli. BMDCs were generated from bone marrow of wild type female C57BL/6 mice using 100ng/mL Flt3L. DCs were harvested at day 8 and stimulated with either media alone, H. pylori antigen lysate or E. coli lysate. At 24 hours, the cells were harvested and RNA was isolated for microarray analysis.
Project description:genes regualted by LPS or LPS+cAMP stimulation in BMDCs; We used microarrays to identify genes that up-regulated by LPS+cAMP compared with just LPS. Experiment Overall Design: BMDCs were stimilated with LPS (10 ng/ml) in the presence or absence of cAMP (100 microM) for 3h. Specifically up-regualted gene by cMP was identified.
Project description:To identify genes affected by miR-634 overexpression, we transfected with 20nmol of miR-634 or miR-negative control (NC) in HeLa, KYSE850, or U2OS cells. After 2 days, RNA was extracted, and then expression analysis was performed using agilent microarray. Expression microarray with miR-634 or miR-NC transfected HeLa, KYSE850, or U2OS cells were performed in duplicate.

Project description:The Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) family of negative regulatory proteins are upregulated in response to several cytokines and pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), and suppress cellular signaling responses by binding receptor phosphotyrosine residues. Exposure of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) to 1D8 cells, a murine model of ovarian carcinoma, suppresses their ability to express CD40 and stimulate antigen specific responses in response to PAMPs, and in particular to poly I: C with the upregulated SOCS3 transcript and protein levels. The ectopic expression of SOCS3 in both the macrophage cell line RAW264.7 and BMDCs decreased signaling in response to both poly I:C and IFNα. Further, knockdown of SOCS3 transcripts significantly enhanced the responses of RAW264.7 and BMDCs to both poly I: C and IFNα. Immunoprecipitation and pull-down studies demonstrate that SOCS3 binds to the IFNα receptor TYK2. Since poly I: C triggers autocrine IFNα signaling, binding of SOCS3 to TYK2 may thereby suppress the activation of BMDCs by polyI:C and IFNα. Thus, elevated levels of SOCS3 in tumor-associated DCs may potentially resist the signals induced by TLR3 ligands and type I interferon to decrease DC activation via binding with IFNα receptor TyK2. Experiment Overall Design: Microarray analysis was used to compare the expression levels of Control mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDC), with cells that had been cocultured (1:5, tumor:BMDC) with mouse ovarian surface epithelial cell line (1D8) cells, with irradiated (50Gy) 1D8 cells, or with the supernatent from 1D8 cells (25%, v/v). Experiment Overall Design: One biologic sample was analyzed for each condition, four samples in all.
