Human naive T cells from peripheral blood were cultured in 24 wells coated with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies in the presence or absence of retinoid acid, IL-12, and 1,25 (OH)2 vitamin D3. The T cells were FACS-sorted based on expression of CD3, integrin alpha4beta7, cutaneous lymphocyte antigen (CLA) and chemokine receptor 10. This serie includes microarray data from stimulated T cells under indicated conditions.
DCs metabolize sunlight-induced vitamin D3 to 'program' T cell attraction to the epidermal chemokine CCL27.

View SamplesNumerous mammalian proto-oncogene and other growth-regulatory transcripts are upregulated in malignancy due to abnormal mRNA stabilization. In hepatoma cells expressing a hepatitis C virus (HCV) subgenomic replicon, we found that the viral nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A), a protein known to bind to viral RNA, also bound specifically to human cellular transcripts that encode regulators of cell growth and apoptosis, and this binding correlated with transcript stabilization. An important subset of human NS5A-target transcripts contained GU-rich elements, sequences known to destabilize mRNA. We found that NS5A bound to GU-rich elements in vitro and in cells. Mutation of the NS5A zinc finger abrogated its GU-rich element-binding and mRNA stabilizing activities. Overall, we identified a molecular mechanism whereby HCV manipulates host gene expression by stabilizing host transcripts in a manner that would promote growth and prevent death of virus-infected cells, allowing the virus to establish chronic infection and lead to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. Overall design: Calculate mRNA decay rate by examining RNA-seq expression levels of 2 samples (Huh and Huh-HCV) at 3 time points (0h, 3h, and 6h) after transcription arrest. RNA-IP followed by RNA-seq on 2 samples (Huh and Huh-HCV).

View SamplesThe phenotypic and functional dichotomy between IRF8+ type 1 and IRF4+ type 2 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1-cDC2) is well accepted; it is unknown how robust this dichotomy is under inflammatory conditions, when additionally monocyte-derived cells (MCs) become competent antigen presenting cells (APC). Using single-cell technologies in models of respiratory viral infection, we found that lung cDC2s acquired expression of Fc receptor CD64 shared with MCs, and of IRF8 shared with cDC1s. These inflammatory (Inf-)cDC2s were superior in inducing CD4+ T helper (Th) cell polarization while simultaneously presenting antigen to CD8+ T cells. When carefully separated from inf-cDC2s, MCs lacked APC function. Inf-cDC2 matured in response to cell-intrinsic toll-like receptor and type 1 interferon receptor signaling, upregulated an IRF8-dependent maturation module and acquired antigens via convalescent serum and Fc receptors. Since hybrid inf-cDC2s are easily confused with monocyte-derived cells, their existence could explain why APC functions have been attributed to MCs.

View SamplesAnalysis of effect of long-term cryopreservation on peripheral blood mononuclear cells at gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that long-term cryopreservation has an influence on the transcriptome profile of peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Results indicated remarkable changes in expression patterns upon cryopreservation of PBMCs, with decreasing signal intensities over time.

The hypothesis tested in the present study was that cryopreservation has an influence on the transcriptome profile of peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Results indicated remarkable changes in expression patterns upon cryopreservation of PBMCs, with a strong loss of signal intensities to background levels for several transcripts.
