Project description:We performed a single-cell transcriptome analysis of 3 biological independent splenic samples from pooled mice sorted for LCMV-specific memory CD4 T cells.
Project description:To understand tissue resident features of memory CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes of the bone marrow and/or spleen according to expressing or not the tissue retention marker CD69, we performed whole transcriptome profiling of ex vivo antigen-specific CD69+ and CD69- memory CD4+ T cells isolated from bone marrow and spleen, and ex vivo CD69+ and CD69- memory CD8+ T cells isolated from bone marrow.
Project description:We performed a ATAC seq analysis of 2 biological independent splenic samples from pooled mice sorted for lcmv-specific memory CD4 T cells and 2 technical replicates from one mouse sorted for naive CD4 T cells .
Project description:Single cell transcriptomic analysis (InDrops) of mouse FoxP3- CD4+ Tconv cells and FoxP3+ regulatory CD4+ T cells isolated from spleen and colon
Project description:Single cell transcriptomic analysis (InDrops) of mouse FoxP3- CD4+ Tconv cells and FoxP3+ regulatory CD4+ T cells isolated from spleen and visceral adipose tissue
Project description:CD4+ T lymphocytes are key to immunological memory, but little is known about the lifestyle of memory CD4+ T lymphocytes. We showed that in the memory phase of specific immune responses to antigens, most of the memory CD4+ T lymphocytes relocated into the bone marrow (BM) within 3-8 weeks after their generation, a process involving integrin a2. Antigen-specific memory CD4+ T lymphocytes expressed Ly-6C to a high degree, unlike most splenic CD44hiCD62L- CD4+ T lymphocytes. In adult mice, more than 80% of Ly-6Chi CD44hiCD62L- memory CD4+ T lymphocytes were in the BM. In the BM, they are located next to IL-7-expressing VCAM-1+ stroma cells, and were in a resting state. Upon challenge with antigen, they rapidly expressed cytokines and CD154 and induced the production of high-affinity antibodies, indicating their functional activity in vivo and marking them as professional memory T helper cells Experiment Overall Design: FACSAria sorted CD44highCD62L-CD25- CD4+ T cells of murine (C57BL/6 mice) bone marrow were compared to those of the spleen using Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430A 2.0 Array. After total RNA extraction, reverse transcription, cDNA extraction, the biotinylated cRNA was transcribed, fragmented, and 15 µg cRNA hybridized in triplicates for each of the two groups to the GeneChip arrays. Group of bone marrow chips: BMCD4T1, BMCD4T2, BMCD4T3, group of spleen chips: SCD4T1, SCD4T2, SCD4T3. Lists of differentially regulated genes were created using High Performance Chip Data Analysis (HPCDA) with Bioretis database (http://www.bioretis-analysis.de).
