Project description:The aim of this experiment was to investigate differential gene expression in splenocytes stimulated with BCG from naïve and BCG vaccinated mice. The differences between naïve and BCG vaccinated mice might indicate the mechanisms by which BCG vaccination confers an enhanced ability of splenocytes from BCG vaccinated mice to inhibit growth of BCG in splenocyte cultures as compared with splenocytes from naive animals. Splenocytes from 4 naïve and 4 BCG vaccinated female C57bl/6 mice were cultured for 12 hours with BCG (MOI 1:1) or without (unstimulated control). Each animal had a stimulated and an unstimulated sample hybridised to a beadchip.
Project description:Bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDM) generated from c57bl/6j mice bone marrow cells were stimulated for 18 h with 12 microgram/ml adiponectin, RNA from non-stimulated or 18 h adiponectin-stimulated BMDM subjected to a agilent microarray analysis
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in BMDM adhered for 4 or 18hrs to Lab Tek Chamber slides pre-coated with 4ug/ml of human serum albumin (HSA) (control protein) or purified human C1q and treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS: 20ng/ml) Mycobacterium avium 101 (M avium) or apoptotic Jurkat T cells. BMDM were obtained from C57Bl/6 and generated as previously described in Bohlson, SS, Strasser, JA, Bower JJ, Schorey J S 2001 Role of complement in Mycobacterium avium pathogenesis: in vivo and in vitro analyses of the host response to infection in the absence of complement component C3 Infec Immun 69: 7729-7735. Mybacterium avium 101 was obtained from Dr Jeff Schorey (University of Notre Dame). The human Jurkat T cell line was obtained from ATCC (Manassas, VA) and induced to undergo apoptosis with dexamethasone as described in Lillis, AP, Greenlee, M C, Mikhailenko I, Pizzo, S V, Tenner, A J, Strickland, D K, Bohlson, S S 2008 Murine Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein 1 (LRP) Is Required for Phagocytosis of Targets Bearing LRP Ligands but Is Not Required for C1q-triggered Enhancement of Phagocytosis J Immunol 181: 364: 373. A six chip study using total RNA from 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to HSA for 4 hrs, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to C1q for 4 hrs, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to HSA for 4 hrs and infected with M avium at a 1:500 ratio of BMDM to M avium, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to C1q for 4hrs and infected with M avium at a 1:500 ratio ofBMDM to M avium, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to HSA for 4 hrs and infected with M avium at a 1:1000 ratio of BMDM to M avium, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to HSA for 4 hrs and treated with 20ng/ml LPS, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to C1q for 4 hrs and treated with 20ng/ml LPS, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to HSA for 4 hrs and treated with 20ng/ml LPS and co-cultured with apoptotic Jurkat cells at a 1:3 ratio of BMDM to apoptotic cells, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to C1q for 4 hrs and treated with 20ng/ml LPS and co-cultured with apoptotic Jurkat cells at a 1:3 ratio of BMDM to apoptotic cells, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to HSA for 18 hrs, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to C1q for 18 hrs, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to HSA for 18 hrs and infected with M avium at a 1:500 ratio of BMDM to M avium, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to C1q for 18hrs and infected with M avium at a 1:500 ratio of BMDM to M avium, 5 separate cultures of BMDM adhered to HSA for 18 hrs and infected with M avium at a 1:1000 ratio of BMDM to M avium. The chip utilized for these studies is a mouse whole-genome 12-plex expression microarray design by NimbleGen designed from the MM9 genome Candidate probe sequences were verified to have no cross-hybridization to human (HG19) or Mycobacterium avium (NC_008595) targets Note: Study sample BMDM_HSA & M avium (1:500)_18hr_rep2 was not included in this submission due to quality control concerns.

Project description:This experiment explored the transcriptional response of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) isolated from BCG-vaccinated individuals following 6 days of in vitro stimulation with 2x10^5 cfu of different Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) strains or 100 ng/ml Mycobacterium tuberculosis-derived purified protein derivative (PPD). The BCG strains used were BCG Russia (Russian BCG-I sub-strain), BCG Japan (Tokyo 172 sub-strain), BCG Denmark (Danish 1331 sub-strain) & BCG Pasteur.
Project description:Bmdm cells were differentiated for 10 days and harvested and culture in six well plate followed by cytokine stimulation total RNA was harvested at 2, 4, 6, 24 hrs Total RNA was collected from bmdm cells stimulated with IFNg at different time point
Project description:Candida auris has been globally recognized as a multidrug-resistant human fungal pathogen that contributes for the worldwide occurrence of nosocomial outbreaks. It has been reported that C. auris was able to avoid neutrophil attack, suggestive of an impaired innate immune response. Whether C. auris evades the innate immune recognition of BMDM (bone marrow derived macrophage) remains poorly understood, and as for well-known Candida species -C. albicans, it can trigger immune response. To determine whether occurs difference between immune response stimulated by C. auris or C. albicans, we performed mRNA-seq of BMDM stimulated by C. auris or C. albicans.
