Project description:Gene expression profiles were obtained from 17 children with rheumatoid factor negative (RF-) polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The disease was inactive in all patients at visit 1. Thee disease remained inactive at visit 2 for 9 patients, while the other 8 patients were experiencing a disease flare at visit 2. The goal of the study was to better understand the underlying molecular biology of flares in JIA Total RNA was obtained from PBMC at two different times in the course of disease

Project description:The transcriptome of PBMC from rheumatoid arthritis patient hasn't been compenhensively profiled, and heterogeneous characteristics of blood monocytes in RA patients are much unknown. We performed the single cell transcriptomic analysis of PBMC from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patient, and monocyte populations were extracted during the analysis. CD127 expression associated expression pattern of inflammatory genes was identified in RA patient's blood monocytes.
Project description:Total RNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and neutrophils from children with juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) were separately compared to pediatric control samples.
