Project description:We report gene expression of Treg cells isolated from injured muscle in IL-33 vs PBS treated mice. Male Foxp3-GFP C57BL/6 reporter (2 months old) mice were injured intramuscularly with cardiotoxin/rIL-33 (0.3 ug/muscle). Tregs were sorted directly into Trizol from injured muscle 4 days post-injury. Gene expression profiling of muscle Tregs from IL-33 vs PBS injured mice.
Project description:We report age-related gene expression of Treg cells isolated from injured muscle and spleen. Male C57BL/6 Foxp3-GFP reporter mice were injured intramuscularly with cardiotoxin. Tregs were sorted directly into Trizol from injured muscle and spleen 4 days post-injury.

Gene expression profiling of muscle and splenic Tregs from 2- vs >6-month old mice (biological duplicate for each).
Project description:We describe the effects of Treg ST2 expression on muscle regeneration. We compare regneration from cryo-injured tibialis anterior muscle from Foxp3-Cre/ST2-flox vs Foxp3-Cre mice 8 days post-injury. These analyses from whole muscle provide insight into the role of muscle Tregs in the context of regeneration. The tibialis anterior muscle from male Foxp3-Cre/ST2 flox or Foxp3-Cre/ST2 WT C57BL/6 mice (2 months old) were cryo-injured using a liquid nitrogen chilled metal probe for 8 seconds. 8 days post-injury whole muscle was harvested and snap frozen in liquid nitrogen. Whole muscle was then homogenized directly in TriZol and gene expression profiling was performed on Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays.
Project description:MicroRNA expression profiling during muscle stem cell activation. Quiescent muscle stem cells from uninjured muscles and activated muscle stem cells from injured muscles at indicated time points were isolated by FACS. MicroRNA expression profiling during muscle stem cell activation using real-time PCR based miRNA arrays. Muscle stem cells were harvested at indicated time points (0hr, 36hr, 60hr and 72hr) after injury. 3 technical replicates were performed. Supplementary files: Raw data (Ct) and complete processed data (dCt, ddCt, fold-change) by platform.
Project description:We aimed to identify the changes in gene expression profile of Tregs isolated from the injured bone, muscle, skin and heart, compared to healthy (uninjured) spleen Tregs. The bone injury consisted of calvarial bone defects, the muscle injury involved volumetric muscle loss defect in the quadriceps and the skin injury involved full-thickness punch-biopsy wounds. The heart injury was performed using the left coronary artery ligation to induce myocardial infarction (MI). The Tregs accumulating within the injured tissues were isolated and purified by fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS), at 7 days post-injury (which is the peak of Treg accumulation within these tissues post-injury).
Project description:We compare the effect of IL-33 vs PBS on muscle regneration from 22-month old mice 8 days post-injury. These analyses from whole muscle provide insight into the role of IL-33 on regeneration in the context of aging. The tibialis anterior muscle from male C57BL/6 mice (22 months old) were cryo-injured using a liquid nitrogen chilled metal probe for 8 seconds. Mice received 2 ug of rIL-33 via intraparitoneal injection the day prior and the day following cryoinjury. 8 days post-injury whole muscle was harvested and snap frozen in liquid nitrogen. Whole muscle was then homogenized directly in TriZol and gene expression profiling was performed on Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays.
