Project description:Murine bone marrow derived macrophages were treated with Immne complex for 4 hours after which transcriptional changes were assessed by microarray.
Project description:Conditioned medium (CM) from bone marrow derived macrophages untreated or treated with LPS was collected and filtered through a 0.22-μm filter. The filtered CM was sequentially fractionated with 50-kDa and 100-kDa Amicon filters. The 50–100 kDa fraction of CM was analyzed by mass spectrometry.
Project description:We investigated the molecular mechanisms by which GABA regulates host defense in macrophages. To examine this, we performed global gene expression analysis of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) after GABA treatment.
Project description:To identify factors that could explain why mice transplanted with Vim deficient bone marrow display decreased atherosclerosis despite increased inflammation, we performed global gene expression profiling of bone-marrow derived macrophages from vimentin-deficient or wild-type littermates on C57BL/6 background. We elucidated the role of vimentin in atherogenic low-density receptorâ deficient mice after bone marrow transplantation from vimentin-deficient mice.
Project description:While aging is well established as an important risk factor for the development and progression of atherosclerosis, the underlying molecular mechanisms of this relationship remain poorly defined, and its role in atherosclerosis regression is unknown. We investigated the response of bone marrow-derived macrophages isolated from old and young mice to atherogenic aggregated LDL.
Project description:Bone marrow-derived macrophages from mice were treated with recombinant Ssa1, a protein enriched in the hypoxic secretome of Candida albicans.
Project description:Macrophages are important immune cells operating at the forefront of innate immunity by taking up foreign particles and microbes through phagocytosis. The RAW 264.7 cell line is commonly used for experiments in the macrophage and phagocytosis field. However, little is known how its functions compare to primary macrophages. Here, we have performed an in-depth proteomics characterisation of phagosomes from RAW 264.7 and bone marrow-derived macrophages by quantifying more than 2500 phagosomal proteins. Our data indicates that there are significant differences for a large number of proteins including important receptors such as mannose receptor 1 and Siglec-1.
