Project description:The goal of our study is to determine whether Atg16L1 deficiency leads to differences in the transcriptional profile of CD11c+ Dendritic Cells, ultimately leading to an increased inflammatory phenotype. CD11c+ cell sorted splenic DCs were isolated from 8 week old WT and Atg16L1 hypomorphic mice from spleens of allo-HSCT recipients on day 7 were placed directly into TRIzol LS (Invitrogen). mRNA was isolated, amplified, and hybridized to an Affymetrix GeneChip (MOE430A).
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE22127: Expression profiling of small intestine lamina propria dendritic cells GSE22128: Expression profiling of splenic dendritic cells Dendritic cells play a vital role in initiating robust immunity against pathogens as well as maintaining immunological tolerance to self antigens, food antigens and intestinal commensals. However, the intracellular signaling networks that program DCs to become tolerogenic are largely unknown. To address this, we analyzed gene expression profiles using microarray analysis of purified intestinal lamina propria DCs (CD11c+ CD11b+ DCs and CD11c+ CD11b- DCs) and compared it to splenic DCs (CD11c+ DC), from mice. We sought to determine the unique genetic profile of small intestine lamina propria CD11c+ cells compared to splenic CD11c+ cells. We performed a meta-analysis using the expression profiles of Intestinal lamina propria CD11c+ CD11b+ DCs (GSM550122), Intestinal lamina propria CD11c+ CD11b- DCs (GSM550121) and Splenic CD11c+ DCs (GSM550126). This study combined and re-normalized the microarray data from GSE22127 and GSE22128 studies. Refer to individual Series for additional details
Project description:Analysis of gene expressions in mouse splenic dendritic cells (DCs). DCs were purified into two subsets, CD8-positive and -negative ones. DCs were expanded in vivo by injecting Flt3L-producing tumors into the backs of C57BL/6 mice. To expand DCs in vivo, Flt3L-producing B16 melanoma cells were injected to the backs of mice. Then, 10-12 days later, splenic DCs were enriched by MACS and purified into CD3-B220-CD8a+CD11c+ and CD3-B220-CD8a-CD11c+ cells by FACS cell sorter.

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) play a vital role in innate immunity. Transcriptome of DCs isolated from mouse spleen was obtained and deposited here. Keywords: Spleen, DCs We sought to determine the expression profile of splenic CD11c+ cells. RNA was extracted from DCs sorted from mouse spleen (CD11c+ cells) and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays.
Project description:Mouse splenic dendritic cells are divided into different subsets based on their phynotype. CD8α+ and CD8α- dendritic cells play different roles against pathogens. Cross-presentation is essential for immune defense against viruses, tumors and intracellular bacteria and CD8α+ DCs are more potent in cross-presentation compared to CD8α- DCs. We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression to analyze the underlying mechanism in CD8α+ dendritic cells cross-presentation Splenic CD8α+ and CD8α- dendritic cells were sorted by flow-cytometer for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Thirty C57BL/6J mice were sacrified for the splenic cells, splenic DCs were enriched by negtive selection, then CD8α+ and CD8α- dendritic cells were seprated based on CD11c and CD8α markers.
Project description:Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of vedolizumab when added to background aGvHD prophylaxis regimen compared to placebo and background aGvHD prophylaxis regimen on intestinal aGvHD-free survival by Day +180 in subjects who receive allo-HSCT as treatment for a hematologic malignancy or myeloproliferative disorder.
Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is intestinal aGvHD-free survival by Day +180 after allo HSCT. Intestinal aGvHD is defined as Stage 1-4 intestinal involvement per Acute Graft versus-Host Disease Clinical Stage criteria.
