Project description:We demonstrate that hydroxychloroquine inhibits trained immunity at the functional and epigenetic level and is accompanied by reduced expression of interferon-stimulated genes. Trained immunity comprises a functional adaptation induced by epigenetic reprogramming which facilitates the anti-viral innate immune response.
Project description:We generated BMDMs from aged C57BL/6J mice. BMDMs were treated with C.ablican derived β-glucan, which is known to induce trained immunity. mRNA was isolated form immune trained and control BMDMs using the Rneasy Kit from Qiagen. Library preparation and sequencing performed by Novogene. We found that trained immunity induced transcriptional changes in BMDMs from aged mice
Project description:Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in the bone marrow can sense peripheral inflammation and adapt through expansion and skewing toward the myeloid lineage. In this study, we performed RNA sequencing in LSK (Lin—Sca-1+cKit+ ) cells to determine the impact of ligature-induced periodontitis on the transcriptomic profile of HSPCs in mice bone marrow.
Project description:Peripheral inflammation affects hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in the bone marrow and induce myeloid lineage skewing of the progenitor cells. In this study, we performed single cell ATAC-sequencing in LSK (Lin—Sca-1+cKit+ ) and GMP (Lin—c-Kit+Sca1—CD16/32+CD34+) cells to determine the impact of ligature-induced periodontitis (LIP) on the epigenomic profile of these BM cells.
Project description:Induction of trained immunity by beta-glucan has been shown to promote transcriptomic alterations in myeloid cells. Monocytes are involved in the immune responses against tumors. In this study, we performed RNA sequencing in tumor-infiltrated monocytes from mice in order to investigate the impact of trained immunity on the transcriptomic profile of monocytes in the tumor setting.
Project description:scRNAseq of monocytes from in vitro Trained immunity experiments stimulated by β-glucan (BG), uric acid (UA), muramyl dipeptide (MDP), oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), or RPMI-Control, and respective samples restimulated with Lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
