Project description:Analysis of TH17 cells redirected with chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) expressing various signaling domains (including CD28, 4-1BB and ICOS) after surrogate antigen stimulation. Our results showed that T cells redirected with an ICOS-based CAR specifically retained a genotype of TH17 cells with expression of Il17a, Il17f, Il1r1, Ccl20, Rorc, and in the absence of Foxp3 CAR-redirected TH17 cells from three different human normal donors were stimulated with immobilized recombinant mesothelin. Gene expression levels were determined prior to stimulation (day 0) and 4, 8, 24 and 96 hours upon antigen recognition.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression. Two-condition experiment, Normoxic MSCs vs. Hypoxic MSCs.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
Project description:ICOS (Inducible Costimulator) is a T cell costimulatory molecule. We found that the cloned T-cell hybridoma 6-13-64 consists of two populations, ICOS expressing and non-expressing. The aim of this study is to screen for candidate genes that regulate ICOS gene expression by transcriptional profiling and comparison of the ICOS-positive and ICOS-negative subpopulations isolated from the 6-13-64 T-cell hybridoma. One-condition experiment, ICOS(-) vs. ICOS(+) cells. Independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.
