Time course RNA-Seq analysis of wildtype and Nlrx1 deficient bone marrow derived monocytoid dendritic cells indicate decision tree in response to A. fumigatus viable conidia
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Aspergillus fumigatus is an opportunistic fungal pathogen of the respiratory system that may cause invasive infection or an allergic response. Monocytoid dendritic cells (moDCs) are a known recruited cell population during fungal colonization and are believed to be a critical player in balancing innate versus adaptive immune responses. We conducted an RNA-Seq time course analysis of moDCs challenged against A. fumigatus, to gain an appreciation of gene expression changes. We concurrently utilized Nlrx1 deficient moDCs as we have recently shown the importance of Nlrx1 during invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and shown the absence of Nlrx1 results in a robust shift towards a detrimental Th2 response. Our findings suggest a decision tree by moDCs in response to A. fumigatus viable conidia that is absent in Nlrx1-/- moDCs.
