Project description:RNA sequencing of the chromatin associated RNA and nucleoplasm associated RNA of Naive CD4+ T cells to identify novel chromatin associated RNAs containing TEs. RNA sequencing of Naive CD4+ T cells or Activated Naive CD4+ T cells treated with Scr or LINE1 antisense oligonucleotides (ASO).
Project description:Continuous contact with self-major histocompatibility complex ligands is essential for the survival of naive CD4 T cells. We have previously shown that the resulting tonic TCR signaling also influences their fate upon activation by increasing their ability to differentiate into induced regulatory T cells. To decipher the molecular mechanisms governing this process, microarray data comparing highly (Ly-6C-) and lowly (Ly-6C+) Self-reactive naive CD4 T cells were obtained.
Project description:RNA sequencing of human neonatal Naive CD4+ T cells and adult Naive CD4+ T cells treated with Scr or LINE1 ASO to assess functional relevance of LINE1 absence in newborns.
