Project description:RNA sequencing was used to compare the transcriptional state of ex-vivo B-cells, moncytes and T-cells from children with Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) pre- and on-treatment and age-matched healthy controls. RNA was extracted from blood samples that were taken from juvenile dermatomyositis patients at diagnosis (before they received treatment) and approximately a year into treatment. The treatment included oral prednisolone, methotrexate, azathioprine, cyclophosphamide and other drugs.

Project description:Total RNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and neutrophils from children with juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) were separately compared to pediatric control samples. Keywords: pediatric rheumatic disease, blood, PBMC, neutrophil, JIA, JDM
