ABSTRACT: We performed a single-cell transcriptome analysis of 3 biological independent splenic samples from pooled mice sorted for LCMV-specific memory CD4 T cells.
Project description:We performed a ATAC seq analysis of 2 biological independent splenic samples from pooled mice sorted for lcmv-specific memory CD4 T cells and 2 technical replicates from one mouse sorted for naive CD4 T cells .
Project description:Transcriptome analysis of CD4+ PD1+ T cells during LCMV CL13 infection Gene expression in WT and ERt2-cre;TGFbRII flox virus specific CD4 T cells Mixed chimeras of WT:ERt2cre+TGFbRII flox/flox were infected 9 days with LCMV and splenic CD4+ PD1+CD49d+ Cd8a- T cells sorted from each compartment by congenic marker
Project description:During acute viral infections, naïve CD4+ T cells differentiate into effector CD4+ T cells and, after viral control, into memory CD4+ T cells. Memory CD4+ T cells are highly functional, proliferate rapidly upon reinfection and persist long-term without antigen. In contrast, during chronic infections, CD4+ T cells become less functional. To compare the development of functional memory T cells with poorly functional T cells from chronic viral infection, we generated longitudinal transcriptional profiles for each. Naive CD44Lo CD4+ T cells were isolated and sorted from uninfected C57BL/6 mice and H2-IAb GP66-specific CD4+ T cells were sorted using MHC-II tetramers at d6, 8, 15, and 30 p.i. with either LCMV Arm or LCMV clone 13. RNA from these CD4+ T cells was processed, amplified, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip MoGene 1.0 st microarrays.
Project description:We performed RNA-seq analysis of splenic samples from 8 individual mice sorted for LCMV-specific memory follicular B helper T cells (TFH) with or without aICOSL treatment (4 samples per group).
Project description:Buffy coats from four independent human donors were enriched for CD4+ cells using MACS CD4 beads and LS columns. Cells were subsequently sorted into Naïve, Central Memory and Effector Memory using following markers: Naive: CD4+CD25–CD45RA+CCR7+; Central Memory: CD4+CD25–CD45RA–CCR7+; Effector Memory: CD4+CD25-CD45RA-CCR7-. Total RNA from these cell subsets was extracted and 100ng was used for Nanostring SPRINT run according to manufacturer's instructions. Overall aim of the experiment is assessing the expression level of human T helper cell miRNome.
Project description:Following infection with LCMV, CD4+ SMARTA TCR transgenic cells (specific for the gp61-80 epitope of the LCMV glycoprotein) rapidly expand, become effector cells, and go on to form a long-lived memory population. Following infection with a recombinant Listeria monocytogenes expressing the LCMV epitope gp61-80, SMARTA cells also expand but display defective effector differentiation and fail to form memory. In an attempt to understand the signals required for CD4 T cell memory differentiation, we compared gene expression by SMARTA cells at the peak of the primary response following either Lm-gp61 or LCMV infection. Experiment Overall Design: SMARTA cells were purified at day 7 post-infection with either LCMV or Lm-gp61. SMARTA cells were sorted on the basis of Thy1.1 expression using a FACSAria. Cells were sorted through the machine twice to enhance purity. Two biological replicates of each group are provided. Each replicate represents the results of SMARTA pooled from three animals.

Project description:IFN -YFP reporter mice (Jax# 017580) were immunized intravenously with attenuated Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium intravenously. 45 days later, tissue resident memory CD4 T cells (CD69+ YFP+) in the liver, effector memory CD4 T cells (CD69- YFP+) in the liver, and effector memory CD4 T cells (CD69- YFP+) in the spleeen were sorted and RNA was sequenced
Project description:CD4+ T lymphocytes are key to immunological memory, but little is known about the lifestyle of memory CD4+ T lymphocytes. We showed that in the memory phase of specific immune responses to antigens, most of the memory CD4+ T lymphocytes relocated into the bone marrow (BM) within 3-8 weeks after their generation, a process involving integrin a2. Antigen-specific memory CD4+ T lymphocytes expressed Ly-6C to a high degree, unlike most splenic CD44hiCD62L- CD4+ T lymphocytes. In adult mice, more than 80% of Ly-6Chi CD44hiCD62L- memory CD4+ T lymphocytes were in the BM. In the BM, they are located next to IL-7-expressing VCAM-1+ stroma cells, and were in a resting state. Upon challenge with antigen, they rapidly expressed cytokines and CD154 and induced the production of high-affinity antibodies, indicating their functional activity in vivo and marking them as professional memory T helper cells Experiment Overall Design: FACSAria sorted CD44highCD62L-CD25- CD4+ T cells of murine (C57BL/6 mice) bone marrow were compared to those of the spleen using Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430A 2.0 Array. After total RNA extraction, reverse transcription, cDNA extraction, the biotinylated cRNA was transcribed, fragmented, and 15 µg cRNA hybridized in triplicates for each of the two groups to the GeneChip arrays. Group of bone marrow chips: BMCD4T1, BMCD4T2, BMCD4T3, group of spleen chips: SCD4T1, SCD4T2, SCD4T3. Lists of differentially regulated genes were created using High Performance Chip Data Analysis (HPCDA) with Bioretis database (http://www.bioretis-analysis.de).
