Project description:The goal of this study was to evaluate the transcriptional response of 4 human duodenal enteroid lines on monolayers to norovirus infections (GII.4). Enteroids were plated as monolayers in Intesticult (Stem Cell Technologies) proliferation medium. After 1 day of cell growth as a monolayer, the proliferation medium was changed with differentiation medium for 5 days. Five-day-differentiated monolayers were washed and were either mock-infected or inoculated with human norovirus supplemented with 500 μM glycochenodeoxycholic acid (GCDCA), for 1 to 2 h at 37°C. Total RNA was extracted using the Qiagen RNeasy kit and paired-end Illumina sequencing was performed.
