ChIP seq: STAT1 and STAT3 transcription factors sense and interpret changes in inflammation through engagement of specific enhancers
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Using ChIP-Seq analysis we explore regulation of gene expression changes during inflammatory peritonitis induced by challenge with bacterial ligands administered via the intra-peritoneal route. A resuspended lypholised supernatant of Staphylococcus epidermidis (SES) was administered with or without ex vivo generated CD4+ T-cells (Th1-polarised) to understand the role of adaptive immune responses in shaping inflammatory processes. To study the role of Signal transducer and Activator of Transcription 1 and 3 (STAT1/STAT3) we performed ChIP-seq on peritoneal membrane sections isolated from wt and Il-6 knockout mice three hours post-challenge. Membrane sections were snap frozen in liquid nitrogen prior to downstream processing using established ChIP-seq protocols (Illumina Truseq).
