Transcriptomic analysis of Responsive and Non-responsive Human NK cells to Plasmodium falciparum-infected red blood cells
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: NK cells are important cells of the innate immune system that respond to malaria infection in human. Howver, NK cell responses to malaria infection vary significantly in the human population. Base on their ability to kill infected red blood cells (iRBC), NK cells from malaria-naive individuals can be classified as responsive or non-responsive. NK cells used for microarray was obtained as follows: 10^6 NK cells were cocultured with either 10^5 iRBC at a starting parasitemia of 0.5% or with the same amount of RBC for 96 hours. Thereafter live NK cells were purified by FACS and RNA extracted via Trizol method. RNA quality was assessed by electrophoretic assay on the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer using a Nano chip (Agilent RNA 6000 Nano chip). RNA with a RIN value of >7.0 was used for genome-wide transcriptional analysis by microarray using HumanHT-12 v4 BeadChip (Illumina).
