ATAC-sequencing of BTBR and C57BL6/J BMDM with Repeated LPS Treatment
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The ability of peripheral innate immune cells to control pro-inflammatory cytokines during periods of repeated or prolonged exposure to immune activating stimuli is critical for preventing tissue damage. In macrophages, repeated exposure to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces a refractory period of immune activation termed endotoxin tolerance. Macrophages from the BTBR mouse strain have a skewed pro-inflammatory phenotype and show a hyper-response to LPS challenge. To identify disrupted regulatory mechanisms governing control of cytokine expression in BTBR compared to C57BL/6J mice (C57), we assessed bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDM) treated with either media, one dose or two doses of LPS. Differences in chromatin accessibility using ATAC-sequencing were used to identify regions of differential chromatin accessibility both under baseline media conditions and in response to LPS.
