Project description:We report cytokine specific changes in gene expression in the human neutrophil transcriptome using TNF-alpha and GM-CSF stimulation of healthy neutrophils
Project description:We report cytokine specific changes in gene expression in the human neutrophil transcriptome using TNF-alpha and GM-CSF stimulation of healthy neutrophils Healthy human neutrophils were stimulated with TNF-alpha or GM-CSF for 1h in vitro. RNA was analysed by SOLiD and Illumina sequencing. RNA from one biological donor was sequenced on both platforms, and two different biological donors were sequenced by Illumina.
Project description:To examine the effect of CIS-deficiency on neutrophil inflammation-associated transcriptional profile in response to GM-CSF signalling
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression.
Project description:Granulocyte-Macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) devlops heterogenous myeloid cell populations from bone marrow progenitor cells. In vitro generated bone marrow derived cells are excellent sources for obtaining dendritic cells or macrophages, but it is still not clear about the exact mixed population characteristics of GM-CSF grown cells. We revealed here that GM-CSF grown bone marrow cell derived attaching cells were composed of dendritic cells (GM-BMDC) as well as macrophages (GM-BMM). We compared the transcriptome profiles of these cell populations as well as M-CSF grown bone marrow derived macrophages (M-BMM). We used microarrays to detail the global profile of gene expressions between three populations of CSF-grown bone marrow derived cells: GM-CSF derived dendritic cells (GM-BMDC), GM-CSF derived macrophages (GM-BMM) and M-CSF derived macrophages (M-BMM).
Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs.
