Project description:To investigate dendritic cells-Leishmania interaction, the transcriptional profile of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) infected with Leishmania infantum or of cells exposed to chemically inactivated parasites was assessed
Project description:Transcriptional analyses of L. infantum promastigote compared to L. infantum intracellular amastigote, and L. major promastigote compared to L. major intracellular amastigote The full-genome DNA microarray includes one 70mer-oligonucleotide probe for each gene of L. infantum and for each gene of L.major LV39 Keywords: stage-specific comparison Leishmania infantum: Two-condition experiment, promastigote stage vs amastigote stage. Six biological replicates for each stage, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array Leishmania major: Two-condition experiment, promastigote stage vs amastigote stage. Four biological replicates for each stage, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array
Project description:Gene expression profiling to address the effects of infection with Leishmania infantum during distinct clinical outcomes as active visceral leishmaniasis (VL), remission of disease and asymptomatic infection.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE9947: Transcriptional analysis of Leishmania infantum methotrexate resistant strains using full-genome DNA microarrays GSE9948: Transcriptional analysis of Leishmania major methotrexate resistant strains using full-genome DNA microarrays Keywords: SuperSeries Refer to individual Series
Project description:To ascertain which genes are involved in the outcome of Leishmania infantum infection and immunopathology of human visceral leishmaniasis (VL), we investigated the transcriptional profile of whole blood samples from patients diagnosed with active VL compared to asymptomatic individuals (positive serology for Leishmania, but without clinical signs of disease) and healthy control samples.
