Project description:mRNA microarray analysis of bone marrow derived macrophages treated under four conditions, including Naïve (N). Bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDM) were derived from the bone marrow of mice and cultured in the presence of PAO, IFN-gamma, or lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Profiled groups include Naive, LPS, IFN, PAO.

Project description:We have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to distinguish danger signal induced inflammatory response. BMDM from C57/BL6 mice cultred in the presence or absence of heat shock necrotic A20 cells for 1hr. Control sample (Non_4) is 'BMDM in the absence of necrotic A20 cells' and reference sample (Dead_4) is 'BMDM in the presence of necrotic A20 cells'
Project description:Developing strategies that promote the resolution of vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis remains a major therapeutic challenge. Here, we show that exosomes produced by naive bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM-exo) contain anti-inflammatory microRNA-99a/146b/378a that are further increased in exosomes produced by BMDM polarized with IL-4 (BMDM-IL-4-exo). These exosomal microRNAs suppress inflammation by targeting NF-kB and TNF-a signaling and foster M2 polarization in recipient macrophages. Repeated infusions of BMDM-IL-4-exo into Apoe_x0001_/_x0001_ mice fed a Western diet reduce excessive hematopoiesis in the bone marrow and thereby the number of myeloid cells in the circulation and macrophages in aortic root lesions. This also leads to a reduction in necrotic lesion areas that collectively stabilize atheroma. Thus, BMDM-IL-4-exo may represent a useful therapeutic approach for atherosclerosis and other inflammatory disorders by targeting NF-kB and TNF-a via microRNA cargo delivery.
