Differential production of small RNAs in Mycobacterium tuberculosis infected primary human monocyte-derived macrophages

ABSTRACT: Primary human monocytes were isolated from four healthy donors. Monocytes were differentiated into macrophages, infected with virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), strain H37Rv, for 24 or 48 hours, at a multiplicity of infection of 5 or 10. Following infection, infected cells and time-matched uninfected controls were harvested, total RNA including small RNAs was isolated and used for next-generation small RNA sequencing. Small RNA sequencing data was processed using miRge2.0, including a novel miRge2.0-based tRF detection tool. Processed data was used to determine differential expression of microRNAs and differential production of tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) during infection with Mtb.
