Expression analysis of altered neutrophils from septic mice
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Neutrophils are critical for effective anti-fungal immune responses. However, in fungal sepsis neutrophils undergo a phenotypical (Ly6G downregulation) and functional alteration (defective ROS production), impairing their anti-fungal capacity. Therefore we wish to characterize the neutrophils in septic mice transcriptionally to describe their role in driving sepsis. We included several control groups. Mice that lack T cells (TCRaKO mice) have increased resistance to the infection and their neutrophils appear unaltered. We identified G-CSF and DNA/histones to be responsible for affecting granulopoiesis, as rG-CSF and Clodronate liposomes combined expand Ly6Glow neutrohils in naive mice.
