Project description:To characterize more broadly the effect of attenuated TLR4 signaling responses in sooty mangabeys, we performed a comparative RNA-seq profiling of LPS-treated primary monocytes from rhesus macaques and sooty mangabeys. Production of TNF- and IL6 mRNA was significantly lower in sooty mangabeys. Moreover, we observed that induction of NF-κB -regulated inflammatory genes was broadly and significantly reduced in sooty mangabeys, for TNF-a and IL-6 signaling pathways, compared to rhesus macaques. Overall, these data indicate that LPS stimulation of SM blood cells results in a significantly blunted production of pro-inflammatory cytokines as compared to rhesus macaque macrophages.
Project description:IFN alpha mediated gene expression pattern. The effect of IFN alpha on human CD8 T cells responding to antigen (signal 1) and costimulatory signals (signal 2) provided by beads coated with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 mAbs. This analysis examined the effects of IFN alpha on human CD8 T cells responding to antigen (signal 1) and costimulatory signals (signal 2) provided by beads coated with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 mAbs. Magnetically sorted untouched CD8+CD45R0- T cells from three different donors were unstimulated or stimulated with IFNa2b or with anti-CD3/CD28 Beads alone or along with IFNa2b or IFNa5 for 48 hours. Individual mRNA samples were analyzed using HG-U133A 2.0 array gene chips. Keywords: Gene expression analysis after different stimulation Magnetically sorted untouched CD8+CD45R0-T cells from three different donors (named A, B and C) unstimulated or stimulated with IFN alpha 2b or with anti-CD3/CD28 beads alone or along with IFN alpha 2b or IFN alpha 5 for 48 hours.
Project description:The Tec-family kinase Itk plays an important role during T-cell activation and function, and controls also conventional versus innate-like T-cell development. We have characterized the transcriptome of Itk-deficient CD3+ T-cells, including CD4+ and CD8+ subsets, using Affymetrix microarrays. The largest difference between Itk-/- and Wt CD3+ T-cells was found in unstimulated cells, e.g. for killer cell lectin-like receptors. Compared to anti-CD3-stimulation, anti-CD3/CD28 significantly decreased the number of transcripts suggesting that the CD28 co-stimulatory pathway is mainly independent of Itk. The signatures of CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell subsets identified a greater differential expression than in total CD3+ cells. Cyclosporin (CsA)-treatment had a stronger effect on transcriptional regulation than Itk-deficiency, suggesting that only a fraction of TCR-mediated calcineurin/NFAT-activation is dependent on Itk. Bioinformatic analysis of NFAT-sites of the group of transcripts similarly regulated by Itk-deficiency and CsA-treatment, followed by chromatin-immunoprecipitation, revealed NFATc1-binding to the Bub1, IL7R, Ctla2a, Ctla2b, and Schlafen1 genes. Finally, to identify transcripts that are regulated by Tec-family kinases in general, we compared the expression profile of Itk-deficient T-cells with that of Btk-deficient B-cells and a common set of transcripts was found. Taken together, our study provides a general overview about the global transcriptional changes in the absence of Itk. Experiment Overall Design: CD3+ T-cells from pooled suspensions of spleen and lymph nodes of Wt and Itk knockout mice on C57BL/6 background were isolated after negative depletion. Unstimulated as well as stimulated T-cells were studied. Stimulations were done with anti-CD3 (1 mg/ml) with or without anti-CD28 (3 mg/ml) in the presence or absence of CsA (1 mg/ml) for 24 hrs. For each stimulus, at least duplicate samples were used.
Project description:Comparison of total RNA-seq data from ex vivo unstimulated and stimulated (with anti-CD3/CD28) cells from two primary cell models of HIV latency (resting-cell and wild-type virus models) and peripheral CD4+ T cells from HIV-infected ART-suppressed individuals (ex vivo cells). Two donors were analyzed per model.
