Project description:T reg frequency, activation and function was studied in ESN individuals. Between the subjects with a HIV-specific T cell response, we identified two groups, one, where the T regs were able to suppress T cell proliferation and one where they lacked this capability. Sorted T regs from this two groups were analysed for their expression pattern.

Between the subjects with a HIV-specific T cell response, we identified two groups, one, where the T regs were able to suppress T cell proliferation and one where they lacked this capability. Sorted T regs from this two groups were analysed for their expression pattern. Nineteen samples with CD4+ T cell response were identified, in 11 of which Tregs were unable to suppress. Due to a low number of sorted cells, samples were run only one time.
Project description:ATAC-seq samples from 2 species and 2 cell types were generated to study cis-regulatory element evolution. Briefly, previously generated urinary stem cell derived iPS-cells (Homo sapiens) of 2 human individuals and fibroblast derived cynomolgus macaque iPSCs (Macaca fascicularis) of 2 individuals (Geuder et al. 2021) were differentiated to neural progenitor cells via dual-SMAD inhibition as three-dimensional aggregation culture (Chambers et al. 2009; Ohnuki et al. 2014). The NPC lines were cultured in NPC proliferation medium and passaged 2 - 4 times until they were dissociated and subjected to ATAC-seq together with the respective iPSC clones. ATAC-seq libraries were generated using the Omni-ATAC protocol (Corces et al. 2017) with minor modifications.
Project description:Single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) was used to profile the transcriptome of 16,015 nuclei in human adult testis. This dataset includes five samples from two different individuals. This dataset is part of a larger evolutionary study of adult testis at the single-nucleus level (97,521 single-nuclei in total) across mammals including 10 representatives of the three main mammalian lineages: human, chimpanzee, bonobo, gorilla, gibbon, rhesus macaque, marmoset, mouse (placental mammals); grey short-tailed opossum (marsupials); and platypus (egg-laying monotremes). Corresponding data were generated for a bird (red junglefowl, the progenitor of domestic chicken), to be used as an evolutionary outgroup.
