Comparing transcriptomes of CD8 T cells derived from a fatal H7N9 influenza infection with those derived from a patient that survived the infection. Specifically, CD38+ HLA-DR+ cells were sorted by flow cytometry at different sampling time-points, and the transcriptome was analysed using Smart-seq2.
PBMCs from 4 donors were stained with the influenza A virus HLA-A24/PB1 498-505 tetramer. Two donors (non-LIFT8 and non-LIFT12) showed TCR independent KIR binding to tetramers whereas the other two donors (Non-LIFT14 and Non-LIFT10) showed TCR specific binding. Cells were single-cell sorted on a BD ...
Summary statistics for a multi-cohort epigenome-wide association study. This includes summary statistics (effect-size, standard error, p-value) for 470,000 methylation markers.
Overweight and obesity affect ~1.5 billion people worldwide, and are major risk factors for type-2 diabetes (T2D), cardiovascular disease and related metabolic and inflammatory disturbances.1,2 Although the mechanisms linking adiposity to its clinical sequelae are poorly understood, recent studies s...
