Compare gene expression profiles of TCR transgenic CD4+ T helper type 1 (Th1) vs. type 17 (Th17) cells optimally stimulated by antigen and differentiated under Th1 or Th17 conditions.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The comparison of Th1 vs. Th17 cell expression profile has been plagued by 1) rarely use of physiologically relevant antigen-driven T helper cell differentiation; and 2) cell lineage tracking system to enrich highly pure Th subsets. We began our attempt to produce large numbers of antigen-specific T helper subsets for expression profiling, when Foxp3GFP knockin mice were first made by our laboratory in 2005. We crossed this line with syngeneic TEa TCR transgenic mice in C57BL/6 background, and use FACS to sort optimally stimulated, highly pure GFP(Foxp3)-negative populations for Th1 vs. Th17 expression profile comparison.
