ABSTRACT: Transcriptional response of Mycobacterium tuberculosis ΔlucA::hyg and complemented strains vs. WT in resting murine bone marrow-derived macrophages
Project description:Transcriptional response of Mycobacterium tuberculosis ΔlucA::hyg mutant and complemented strains vs. WT in resting murine bone marrow-derived macrophages was analyzed in this study. This data demonstrates that deletion of lucA leads to perturbed expression of the genes linked to fatty acid and cholesterol metabolism of the pathogen during macrophage infection. It supports an overall conclusion of the publication that LucA serves an important role in function of fatty acid and choletserol transporters.
Project description:This study uses microarray analyses to examine transcriptional responses of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex clinical isolates to phagosomal cues encountered inside resting murine bone marrow-derived macrophages 24hr post-infection. Transcript levels of intracellular mycobacteria were compared to extracellular bacteria of the same strain (An aliquot of the inoculum used to infect macrophages was incubated in the absence of macrophages for 24hr in an identical flask).

Project description:We profiled changes in the macrophage proteome during a time-course of primary murine bone marrow-derived macrophages infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We measured changes in global protein abundance, phosphorylation, and ubiquitylation.

Project description:The aim of this study was to identify the signaling pathways differentially engaged upon infection with either live or heat killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis in murine bone marrow derived macrophages. Based on preliminary data that type I IFN signaling dominates the transcriptional differences, we investigated what roles the type I IFN receptor IFNAR and the signaling molecule STING play during infection with either live or heat killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis in bone marrow derived macrophages. In WT and STING KO macrophages, IFNbeta treatment was added either by itself or in addition to both of the infection conditions to test whether the lack of IFNbeta induction in these cells accounted for any differences in transcriptional respones.added IFNbeta treatment either by itself or in addition to both of the infection conditions.
