Project description:We cultured bone marrow derived dendritic cells from WT and CD11c KO mice. Then, a group of bone marrow dendritic cells were stimulated with LPS overnight. We obtained bone marrow derived dendritic cells with or without LPS stimulation and analyzed proteomics profiles.
Project description:We investigated in mouse models how enhanced coagulation activation due to a common disease polymorphism in coagulation factor V (fV Leiden Arg506Gln) modifies the host response to infection and inflammation We used microarrays to characterize the in vivo and in vitro inflammatory responses of mouse spleen dendritic cells, macrophage-like RAW264.7 cells, and bone marrow myeloid cells Samples 1-6 were generated by pooling equal amounts of RNA prepared from FACS-enriched spleen dendritic cells isolated from 6 individual mice before (control sample 1) or 16 hours after challenge with lipopolysaccharide. Samples 7-10 were generated by pooling equal amounts of RNA prepared from triplicate cultures of RAW264.7 cells. Samples 10-14 (2 replicas per condition) were prepared from RNA isolated from FACS-enriched bone marrow myeloid cells (pooled from 4 adoptively transferred animals each) 7 days after infection with S.aureus.

Project description:Classical dendritic cells may be found in mouse bone marrow and spleen. Due to the differences in their local environment, two populations may express different genes and potentially carry different functions We used microarrays to compare the gene expression profiles between myeloid dendritic cells and classical dendritic cells in spleen. Our data supported the hypothesis that bone marrow myeloid dendritic cells are enriched for the expression of certain sets of genes that may play specific functions in the bone marrow microenvironment
Project description:We analyzed the transcriptome differences of wild-type and IRF4-deficient (CD11c-cre x Irf4fl/fl) type-2 conventional dendritic cells (cDC2s) in spleen. Wild-type or IRF4-deficient (CD11c-cre x Irf4fl/fl) bone marrow cells were transferred into lethal irradiated CD45.1 mice. 8 weeks later, splenic cDC2s were purified and prepared for RNA-seq analysis. Three technical repeats of ~10^5 cells per sample from each of one mouse were included. CD97 was downregulated in IRF4-deficient cDC2s. GSEA showed that upregulated and downregulated genes in CD97-deficient cells were strongly enriched in IRF4-regulated genes. These data are in accord with CD97 acting within the IRF4 gene-expression network.
Project description:Bulk mRNA from mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) was sequenced. Samples were obtained from Wild Type (C57BL/6J) mice, or mice with GNAS knocked out specifically in CD11c +ve cells.
Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) play a vital role in innate immunity. Transcriptome of DCs isolated from mouse spleen was obtained and deposited here. Keywords: Spleen, DCs We sought to determine the expression profile of splenic CD11c+ cells. RNA was extracted from DCs sorted from mouse spleen (CD11c+ cells) and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays.
