Project description:Behçet’s disease (BD) is a chronic vasculitis characterized by systemic immune aberrations. However, a comprehensive understanding of the immune disturbances in BD and how they contribute to BD pathogenesis is lacking. Here, we performed single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing to profile peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and isolated monocytes from BD patients and healthy controls. This dataset is the bulk RNA sequencing part (next generation sequencing-based genome-wide transcriptional profiling), which contains the transcriptional profilings of freshly isolated PBMCs from19 samples (10 healthy controls and 9 BD patients).
Project description:To investigate the role of IRF4 in the regulation of ILC3 development and function, we used the wildtype mice as control and carried out single-cell RNA sequencing (BD Rhapsody) on gut ILC3s.

Project description:BD Rhapsody single cell RNA sequencing of tirgeminal ganglion
Project description:4 groups of mice : Control, antibiotics, antibiotics + 4days of recolonization, antibiotics + 4days of recolonization + Enterocloster clostridioformis. Tumor draining lymph node were harvested after CFSE injection were harvested and CFSE+ cells were sorted and proccessed in order to generate single cell RNA-sequencing using BD Rhapsody mouse immune response targeted panel. Groups were barcoded using BD Rhapsody Multiplexing Kit.
Project description:Behçet’s disease (BD) is a chronic vasculitis characterized by systemic immune aberrations. Here, we performed single-cell sequencing to profile peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and isolated monocytes from BD patients and healthy donors. We observed prominent expansion and transcriptional changes in monocytes in PBMCs from BD patients. Deciphering the monocyte heterogeneity revealed the accumulation of C1q-high (C1qhi) monocytes in BD. Pseudotime inference indicated that BD monocytes markedly shifted their differentiation toward inflammation-accompanied and C1qhi monocyte-ended trajectory. Further experiments showed that C1qhi monocytes enhanced phagocytosis and proinflammatory cytokine secretion, and multi-platform analyses revealed the significant clinical relevance of this subtype. Mechanistically, C1qhi monocytes were induced by activated IFN-γ signaling in BD patients, and were decreased by tofacitinib treatment. Our study illustrates BD immune landscape and the unrecognized contribution of C1qhi monocytes to BD hyperinflammation, showing their potential as therapeutic targets and clinical assessment indexes.
Project description:To investigate the role of aging in the regulation of ILC3 development and function, we used aged mice and carried out single-cell RNA sequencing (BD Rhapsody) on aged gut ILC3s.
Project description:The goal of this experiment is to decipher the mechanism of intestinal endocrine / enteroendocrine subtype specification, that is far from being fully understood. To this end, we used single cell genomics in mouse mini-guts. Enteroendocrine cells are derived from endocrine progenitors expressing the transcription factor Ngn3. We took advantage of the Ngn3+/eYFP mouse model -where endocrine progenitors and their descendants can be isolated and sorted by FACS on the basis of the eYFP fluorescence- and established enteroids or mini-guts from the small intestine. Enteroids were dissociated and eYFP+ single cells were directly sorted in 96 wells of the Precise WTA Single Cell Encoding Plate (BD™ Precise WTA Single Cell Kit, BD Genomics). cDNA and libraries were prepared following the BD protocol. Sequencing (paired-end, 2x100b) was performed in a HiSeq 4000 (Illumina). The bioinformatic analysis allowed to identify 8 different groups of enteroendocrine cells with specific signatures.
Project description:To investigate the role of Cxxc1 in the regulation of ILC3 development and function, we used Cxxc1flox/floxRorccre mice and carried out single-cell RNA sequencing (BD Rhapsody) on small intestinal ILC3s.
Project description:To investigate the role of ThPOK in the regulation of ILC3 development and function, we established conventional ThPOK knockout mice and carried out single-cell RNA sequencing (BD Rhapsody) on intestinal ILC3s.
