Global transcriptional profiling unveils the interferon network in blood and tissues across different diseases [Microarray_Blood_6]

ABSTRACT: We have performed modular analyses to decipher the global transcriptional response and capture a breadth of distinct immune responses in the lungs and blood of mice infected or challenged with a broad spectrum of infectious pathogens, including parasites (Toxoplasma gondii), bacteria (Burkholderia pseudomallei), viruses (Influenza A virus and Respiratory Syncytial virus (RSV)) and fungi (Candida albicans), or allergens (House dust mite (HDM), systemic and intra-nasal challenge). In a distinct set of infectious diseases, we tested the blood modular transcriptional signatures in mice infected with Plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi (malaria), murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV), Listeria monocytogenes and chronic Burkholderia pseudomallei. We also investigated the transcriptional profiles of sorted CD4 T cells (total CD4+, CD4+ CD44 high and CD4+ CD44 low) from lung and blood samples from mice challenged with HDM allergen. Moreover, we used mice deficient in either Ifnar or Ifngr, or both, to reveal the individual roles of each pathway in controlling disease in mice infected with Toxoplasma gondii.
