Project description:Gene expression profiels in the human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) from 4 different donors (A, B, C, and D) were studied. Cells were left untreated (Group 4), activated with LPS alone (Group 1) or activated in the presence cmv IL-10 (Group 2) or human IL-10 (Group 3) for 12 hours before subjected to RNA extraction. Keywords: IL-10, LPS, dendritic cells

Experiment Overall Design: Overall ranscriptional profiles of activated DCs and IL-10-exposed activated DCs were compared with untreaetd immature DCs as baseline control.
Project description:Expression profiles at different time points during dendritic cell differentiation (induced by specific culture conditions) including monocytes as well as expression profiles between monocytes and completely differentiated cells (macrophages at day7 and dendritic cells at day7, respectively) were compared. Monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DC) were obtained by culturing elutriated monocytes with 20U/ml IL-4, 280U/ml GM-CSF and 10% FCS; monocyte-derived macrophages (MAC) were obtained by culturing elutriated monocytes with 2% AB serum. Three to seven biological replicates that are derived from independent healthy donors were included. One-color based gene expression. 2 datasets: dendritic cell kinetic study and comparison of monocyte, macrophage, and dendritic cells

Project description:We have carried out global gene expression analysis to clarify the interrelationship between 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and differentiation-driven gene expression patterns in developing human monocyte-derived dendritic cells. Monocytes were treated with 10 nM 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or vehicle 14 hours after plating for 12 hours or 5 days. Monocytes, differentiating dendritic cells (+/-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 for 12 hours) and immature dendritic cells (+/-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 for 5 days) were harvested. This design allows one to identify genes regulated by differentiation and/or 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in human monocyte-derived dendritic cells. Experiment Overall Design: Human monocytes were obtained from buffy coats from healthy donors by Ficoll gradient centrifugation followed by immunomagnetic cell separation with anti-CD14-conjugated microbeads. Monocytes were cultured in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% FBS, 800 U/ml GM-CSF and 500 U/ml IL-4. Monocytes were treated with 10 nM 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or vehicle 14 hours after plating for 12 hours or 5 days. Monocytes, differentiating dendritic cells (+/-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 for 12 hours) and immature dendritic cells (+/-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 for 5 days) were harvested. Experiments were performed in biological triplicates representing samples from different donors. 15 samples were processed and hybridized to Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays.
Project description:To investigate the effect of MGL ligation in monocyte-derived dendritic cell biology, we generated control dendrimers and two different glycodendrimers exposing the MGL ligands αGalNAc or GalNAcβ1-4Gal. αGalNAc and GalNAcβ1-4Gal glycodendrimers were validated in the corresponding manuscript. Monocyte-derirved dendritic cells were generated by culturing monocytes for 4 days with IL-4 and GM-CSF. To study the effect of MGL-ligation at the transcriptional level, next generation sequencing was performed on monocyte-derived dendritic cells from three independent donors, stimulated for 4 h with control, αGalNAc or GalNAcβ1-4Gal glycodendrimers in the absence or presence of LPS.

Project description:To evaluate the DC genome-wide gene expression in response to beta-glucan and its regulation by IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) we used a whole genome microarray. The gene expression profiling was performed in DC left untreated or exposed to beta-glucan for 4 and 12 h, in absence or presence of IL-1RA. This strategy allowed the identification of early/immediate and late/secondary genes regulated by beta-glucan in an IL-1-dependent and -independent manner. Human monocyte-derived DC were obtained by a 6/7-d cultures of freshly isolated monocytes with recombinant human IL-4 (10 ng/ml) and GM-CSF (50 ng/ml).
