Project description:We used RNA-Seq to identify differential gene expression in LAP+ vs. LAP- Gamma-delta T-cells. We report a signature of 407 genes that were enriched in TCRgd+LAP+ vs. TCRgd+LAP- cells with p<0.05. Among the up-regulated genes, we found increased expression of genes related to antigen presentation, including MHC class II molecules (H2-Aa, H2-Ab1, H2-Eb1 and H2-Eb2), CD40 and CD86 RNA-Seq of TCRgd+LAP+ versus TCRgd+LAP- cells harvested from mouse spleen and Peyer's patches; began with 20 mice for two independent experiments (10 mice each); samples were pooled and for each experiment resulted in one LAP- and one LAP+ sample for RNA-SEQ, or four samples in total; The two LAP+ were combined, resulting in three samples in total for RNA-Seq.
Project description:The gene expression profiles of a temperature-sensitive strain, ts-8, was compared agains its wild type counterpart, NC-1. Keywords: mutant comparision, two class unpaired design
Project description:To find the signalling pathway involved in WT/2D2 CD4+ gut T cell (CD4+ intraepithelial lymphocytes, CD4+IEL) differentiation, particulary to determine whether aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) pathway is involved. Gene expression was analyzed ex vivo in CD4+ T cells that were sorted from Wild type-Gut / 2D2 mouse-Gut / Wild type-Spleen / 2D2 mouse-Spleen (N=3 per group). The genes highly expressed in WT/2D2 Gut compared to WT/2D2 Spleen were selected by k-means clustering. AHR pathway related genes (IPA software) were further selected.
Project description:There were no studies about gene expression of normal gingiva before. We performed this study to compare with gene expression of gingival fibromatosis

Project description:T lymphocytes are conventionally divided into subsets based upon expression of co-receptors, cytokines and surface molecules. By mRNA microarray analysis, T lymphocytes that express the C-type lectin CD161 were identified to share a transcriptional profile, which led to the identification of an innate function across these previously defined subsets, including CD8, CD4 and TCRgd T cells. Gene expression of sort purified, resting CD161+ and CD161- TCRgd T cells from peripheral blood was measured in 4 healthy donors.
