Expression data from endothelial cells isolated from IL-33 knock-out and wildtype rats

ABSTRACT: Endothelial cells form the innermost layer of vessel walls and their activation is important for the recruitment of white blood cells to inflammatory lesions and for the formation of new blood vessels. Endothelial expression of IL-33 is prominent in human, guinea pig and rat, while is almost absent in the mouse. We have therefore generated IL-33-deficient rats, a more suitable animal model than the commonly laboratory mouse, to address a knowledge gap in the IL-33 research field by providing an in vivo model system that closely reflects the IL-33 expression in human. We performed here gene-level expression profiling of the endothelial cells isolated from IL-33 knock-out rat dermal blood vessesl and looked for the role of endogenous IL-33 in regulating the endothelial cell phenotype.
