Project description:To understand the mechanisms through which JunB regulates Tregs-mediated immune regulation, we examined the global gene expression profiles in the JunB WT and KO Tregs by performing RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis.
Project description:Genome-wide gene expression pattern of E47 KO versus WT HSCs from primary and secondary recipient mice were analysis using Agilent one-color micro-array analysis.
Project description:Genome-wide gene expression pattern of E47 KO versus WT HSCs from primary and secondary recipient mice were analysis using Agilent one-color micro-array analysis. Two replicates from 4 samples are analyzed. The sample from the WT mouse were set as their reference sample.
Project description:Gene profiling, using microarray technology, was used to identify differentially expressed genes in bone marrow-differentiated macrophages of Hem1 KO versus Hem1 WT mice
Project description:The adenosine 2A receptor (A2AR) is expressed on regulatory T cells (Tregs), but the functional significance is currently unknown. We compared the gene expression between wild-type (WT) and A2AR knockout (KO) Tregs and between WT Tregs treated with vehicle or a selective A2AR agonist. FACS-sorted GFP positive Tregs from WT or A2AR KO FoxP3GFP mouse spleen and lymph nodes were incubated 18 hr with vehicle (DMSO), a separate set of WT Tregs were incubated with the selective A2AR agonist ATL1222 10 nM (Dogwood Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) for 18 hr prior to RNA isolation.
Project description:High ploidy large cytoplasmic megakaryocytes (LCM) are critical negative regulators of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and are responsible for platelet formation. Using a mouse knockout model with normal megakaryocyte numbers but essentially devoid of LCM (MK-LCM KO), we demonstrated a pronounced increase in bone marrow HSC concurrent with endogenous mobilization and extramedullary hematopoiesis. When HSC isolated from a MK-LCM KO microenvironment were transplanted in lethally irradiated mice, the absence of LCM increased HSC in BM, blood and spleen. Severe thrombocytopenia was observed in animals with diminished LCM, although there was no change in megakaryocyte ploidy distribution. In contrast, WT HSC-generated LCM regulated a normal HSC pool and prevented thrombocytopenia. The present label-free quantitative LC-MSMS data was used to determine proteins that are differentially expressed in bone marrow cells of MK-LCM WT versus MK-LCM KO mice.
Project description:We generated NUP133 WT and KO podocytes to model human hereditary SRNS in vitro. A subtype of SRNS is caused by monogenetic mutations of the nuclear pore complex including NUP133. Immortalized human podocytes were genome edited applying the CRISPR/Cas9 technique and two independent NUP133 sgRNAs. Two monoclonal cell backgrounds were used to create two matching sets of NUP133 WT and KO cells (WT-1 versus KO-1 and WT-2 versus KO-2). Transcriptome profiling (RNA-Sequencing) and differential gene expression analysis was performed in duplicate for each cell line. NUP133 KO podocytes exhibit vast transcriptional changes compared to WT cells.
