Project description:Primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from full blood by standard ficoll centrifugation. Cells were washed and processed immediately.
Project description:Mitochondrial respiration and gene expression related to mitochondrial function were measured from the peripheral blood of infection and sepsis patients as well as healthy controls
Project description:We here sought to better understand the transcriptomic alterations in sorted monocytes (CD14+), CD4+, CD8+ T cells and B cells (CD19+) of sepsis patients (n=6) relative to healthy subjects (n=4).
Project description:Transcriptome profiling was conducted on 2 replicate samples of total peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and isolated PBMC subsets.
Project description:Analysis of the surfaceome of a blood cell subset requires cell sorting, followed by surface protein enrichment. Here, we present a protocol combining magnetically activated cell sorting (MACS) and surface biotinylation of the target cell subset from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). We describe the steps for isolating target cells and their in-column surface biotinylation, followed by isolation and mass spectrometry analysis of biotinylated proteins. The protocol enables in-column surface biotinylation of specific cell subsets with minimal membrane disruption.
Project description:Study goal is to disclose features of gene expression profile of peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from type C cirrhotic patients with or without hepatocellular carcinomas. Keywords: gene expression profile, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, type C liver cirrhosis
Project description:Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is an inflammatory arthritis of the axial skeleton that predominantly affects young men. HLA-B27 has remained the major genetic risk factor in AS. Recently, more non-MHC genes has been discoverd to be involved in AS pathogenesis, especially IL-23 signalling pathway related genes. We performed a proteomic study of the peripheral blood mononuclear cells from AS patients and healthy donors.
Project description:This study aimed to identify transcription networks and signatures of bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells in response to LPS stimulation. A total of 464 genes including at least 17 transcription factors were identified to be significantly induced by LPS using a high density bovine oligonucleotide microarray. The network analysis revealed that alternation in gene expression was regulated by transcription factors through potential interaction within the pathway networks in the LPS stimulated cells. Our results demonstrated that specific pathway networks are responsible for transcription regulation in bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells in response to pathogen components such as LPS.
