Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Monocytes were isolated from blood of Wildtype, Mir150 and TET3 knockout mice, sorted for classical and non-classical monocyte subsets. RNA seq was performed on unstimulated monocytes.
Project description:We investigated the transcriptomes of monocytes in a variety of mouse tissue. Monocytes were were identified as CD45+ Lin(CD3ε, TCR-β, CD19, B220, NK1.1, Ter119, Siglec F, Ly6G)- CD11b+ Ly6Chi CD64- MHCII- and their RNA was sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq2500PE
Project description:The study was a comparison of gene expression using RNA-seq. We analyzed the stem and progenitor cells from WT and Vav-cre+ Tet2fl/fl Flt3-ITD (T2F3) mice. We isolated stem cells LSK (lin- sca+ kit+) and granulocyte-macrophage progenitors GMP (lin- sca- kit+ fcgr+ cd34+) cells from bone marrow. Comparisons were made across genotypes WT vs. T2F3 and cell types LSK vs. GMP. Comparison of WT and Tet2-/-Flt3ITD bone marrow stem and progenitor cells.
Project description:Six-weeks old (C57Bl6, Cx3cr1gfp/+) mice were intraperitonealy infected with a low number (1.104) of L. monocytogenes (EGDe strain) in exponential growth phase (bacteria were grown in BHI at 108/ml, and diluted 10.000x in PBS immediately before injection). Group of three mice were euthanized, before infection. Peritoneal cells were recovered by peritoneal lavage. Cells from individual mice were stained with antibodies to CD11b (PECy7), Gr1 (APC), NK1.1, B220 and CD3 (PE), and F4/80 (biotin-conjugated followed by streptavidinpacific blue) for sorting. Gr1- monocytes were purified as NK1.1- CD3- B220- CD11b+ F4/80low Gr1-, gfphigh; Gr1+ monocytes were purified as NK1.1- CD3- B220- CD11b+ F4/80low Gr1+, gfpint; and polymorphonuclear cells were purified as NK1.1- CD3- B220- CD11b+ F4/80- Gr1high, gfp-. 1.103 cells from each mice, time point, and phenotype were purified by facs sorting according to their phenotype. Samples were kept at 4°C before and during the sort. Cells were directly sorted in the SuperAmp Lysis Buffer (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) using a FACS Aria cell-sorter (BD biosciences).
Project description:In this study we investigated the mechanisms involved in memory T-cell mediated protection using mice vaccinated with the intracellular bacterium Listeria monocytogenes. Our working hypothesis was that rapid activation of cells of the innate immune system, in particular inflammatory Ly6C+ monocytes, were essential in effective protection, in a memory T cell-dependent manner. Thus we generated a comprehensive comparison of the genetic program of activated Ly6C+ monocytes during a primary or a secondary infection with Listeria monocytogenes, at 8 hours post challenge infection. Abstract of corresponding publication: Cells of the innate immune system are essential for host defenses against primary microbial pathogen infections, yet their involvement in effective memory responses of vaccinated individuals has been poorly investigated. Here we show that memory T cells instruct innate cells to become potent effector cells in a systemic and a mucosal model of infection. Memory T cells controlled phagocyte, dendritic cell and NK or NK T cell mobilization and induction of a strong program of differentiation, which included their expression of effector cytokines and microbicidal pathways, all of which were delayed in non-vaccinated hosts. Disruption of IFN-gamma-signaling in Ly6C+ monocytes, dendritic cells and macrophages impaired these processes and the control of pathogen growth. These results reveal how memory T cells, through rapid secretion of IFN-gamma, orchestrate extensive modifications of host innate immune responses that are essential for effective protection of vaccinated hosts. Overall design: Inflammatory monocytes were purified (see below for isolation method) from 4 groups of 3 individual mice each (triplicate): (i) uninfected mice, (ii) primary infected, (iii) secondary infected, (iv) secondary infected and T-cell depleted 1 day before. Isolation of cells was done on 3 different days for true biological replicates.
Project description:Gene-expression microarray datasets generated as part of the Immunological Genome Project (ImmGen). Primary cells from multiple immune lineages are isolated ex-vivo, primarily from young adult B6 male mice, and double-sorted to >99% purity. RNA is extracted from cells in a centralized manner, amplified and hybridized to Affymetrix 1.0 ST MuGene arrays. Protocols are rigorously standardized for all sorting and RNA preparation. Data is released monthly in batches of cell populations. This Series record provides access to Immunological Genome Project data submitted to GEO.
Project description:Monocytes are a critical component of the cellular innate immune system, and can be subdivided into classical, intermediate and non-classical subsets on the basis of surface CD14 and CD16 expression. Classical monocytes play the canonical role of phagocytosis, and account for the majority of circulating cells. Intermediate and non-classical cells are known to exhibit varying levels of phagocytosis and cytokine secretion, and are differentially expanded in certain pathological states. Characterisation of cell surface proteins expressed by each subset is informative not only to improve understanding of phenotype, but also to provide biological insight into function. Here we use highly multiplexed Tandem-Mass-Tag (TMT)-based mass spectrometry with selective cell surface biotinylation to characterise the classical monocyte surface proteome, then interrogate the phenotypic differences between each monocyte subset to identify novel protein markers.
Project description:Nine different cell types (common dendritic progenitor (CDP), pre-conventional dendritic cell (pre-cDC), common dendritic progenitor (CDPr, according to Rodrigues et al., but this population was flawed in sorting purity), Flt3+ CD11c+ Siglec-H+ CCR9-low B220-low progenitor cell (lo-lo), Flt3 + CD11c+ Siglec-H+ CCR9-low B220-high progenitor cell (lo-hi), plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC), Ly6D+ lymphoid progenitor (SP), Ly6D+ Siglec-H+ lymphoid progenitor (DP) and common lymphoid progenitor (CLP)) were sorted to allow for analysis of their transcriptomic relation and/or similarity. The pDC_precursor_scvelo.h5ad file is a processed file ready for direct downstream analysis with scvelo.
Project description:Analysis of genes induced in DC precursors and in BM cells and monocytes treated with GM-CSF For progenitor arrays, bone marrow progenitors (CMP, GMP, CDP, and pre-cDC) were harvested from WT C57Bl/6 mice. For culture arrays, BM was cultured in the presence of GM-CSF or M-CSF and adherent and non-adherent cells sorted. For monocyte cultures, sorted BM monocytes were treated with GM-CSF for 0, 24 or 48 hours.
Project description:Monocytes have been categorized in three main subpopulations based on CD14 and CD16 surface expression. Classical monocytes are the most abundant subset in the blood. They express a CD14+CD16-CCR2+ phenotype, which confers on them the ability to migrate to inflammatory sites by quickly responding to CCL2 signaling. Here we identified and characterized the surge and expansion of a novel monocyte subset during SIV and HIV infection. They were undistinguishable from classical monocytes regarding CD14 and CD16 expression, but did not express surface CCR2. Transcriptome analysis of sorted cells confirmed that they represent a distinct subpopulation that expresses lower levels of inflammatory cytokines and activation markers than their CCR2+ counterparts. They exhibited impaired phagocytosis and deficient chemotaxis in response to CCL2 and CCL7, besides being refractory to SIV infection. We named these cells atypical CCR2- classical (ACC) monocytes, and believe they play an important role in AIDS pathogenesis, possibly reflecting an anti-inflammatory response against the extreme immune activation observed during SIV and HIV infection. Antiretroviral therapy caused this population to decline in both macaque and human subjects, suggesting that this atypical phenotype may be induced by viral replication. Expression profiling by NanoString nCounter gene expression system. Classical monocytes (CD14++CD16-) from six SIV-infected macaques (day 14 post inoculation) were sorted in two groups according to CCR2 expression.
