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:Vasculitis is characterized by the inflammation of blood vessels. In patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA) large- to medium-sized vessels are affected. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed on GCA patients and healthy controls (HC) to study the transcriptome of peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients and controls.
Project description:Patients with anti-MPO vasculitis have increased serum levels of the signalling molecule cGAMP suggestive of ongoing DNA recognition by the cGAS/STING pathway. Consistent with this gene set enrichment analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cell transcriptomes from patients with active anti-MPO vasculitis revealed up-regulation of type 1 interferon response genes compared to healthy controls.
Project description:We screened vasculitis-specific molecules by combining the findings from serum proteome analysis and whole blood bulk RNA sequencing. We validated the results using immunohistochemical staining and spatial transcriptome analysis of their tissues. Finally, we elucidated the significant molecule to reflect the landscape of systemic vasculitis using trans-omics analysis.
Project description:Both innate and adaptive immune responses are reportedly increased in Behcet’s disease (BD), a chronic-relapsing systemic vasculitis lying at the intersection between autoinflammation and autoimmunity. To further study pathophysiologic molecular mechanisms operating in BD we searched for transcriptome-wide changes in blood mononuclear cells from these patients. We performed 3’ mRNA next generation sequencing-based genome-wide transcriptional profiling followed by analysis of differential expression signatures, KEGG pathways, GO biological processes and transcription factor signatures al 25 samples (11 healthy controls and 14 BD).
Project description:To identifying new blood derived prognostic biomarkers of lung disease progression in systemic sclerosis patients, we performed RNA-seq on whole blood from progressing SSc-ILD patients and controls enrolled in the FaSScinate clinical trial or an independent cohort.
Project description:Gene expression profile studies have identified an interferon signature in whole blood or mononuclear cell samples from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. This study was designed to determine whether specific lymphocyte and myeloid subsets freshly isolated from the blood of systemic lupus erythematosus patients demonstrated unique gene expression profiles compared to subsets isolated from healthy controls.
