Project description:Gene expression profile studies have identified an interferon signature in whole blood or mononuclear cell samples from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. This study was designed to determine whether specific lymphocyte and myeloid subsets freshly isolated from the blood of systemic lupus erythematosus patients demonstrated unique gene expression profiles compared to subsets isolated from healthy controls. Keywords: patient compared to control

This study was designed to determine whether specific lymphocyte and myeloid subsets freshly isolated from the blood of systemic lupus erythematosus patients demonstrated unique gene expression profiles compared to subsets isolated from healthy controls. Experiment Overall Design: The entire study included 67 samples. One CEL file was not available for SLE13_CD4
Project description:Gene expression profiling of peripheral blood cells from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) vs healthy individual (HI).
Project description:Gene expression profiling of peripheral blood cells from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA)/ systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)/ polyarticular type juvenile idiopathic arthritis (polyJIA)/ systemic-onset JIA (sJIA) vs healthy children (HC) and healthy individual (HI).
Project description:T-cells are important in the pathogenesis of juvenile-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (JSLE). Transcriptomic analysis of FACS sorted primary CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells was performed to assess differential gene expression in patient groups.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of peripheral blood cells from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) vs healthy individual (HI). Peripheral blood was obtained from patients with SLE (n=21) and HI (n=45). Blood samples from 45 HI are used as control.
Project description:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), also known simply as lupus, is an autoimmune disease. There is no cure for SLE. The mechanism involves an immune response by autoantibodies against a person's own tissues. However, the mechanism underlying imbalance of autoantibodies is not clear. In this experiment, peripheral blood was obtained from normal healthy donors and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were separated by Ficoll separation solution. Samples of four (total eight) donors were pooled and Samples of four (total eight) SLE patients were pooled. The aim was to characterize the mRNA profile of SLE patients compared to healthy donors and find the new target of diagnosis or treatment for SLE.
