High-throughput gene expression profiling has become an important tool for investigating transcriptional activity in a variety of biological samples. To date, the vast majority of these experiments have focused on specific biological processes and perturbations. Here, we have generated and analyzed gene expression from a set of samples spanning a broad range of biological conditions. Specifically, we profiled gene expression from 91 human and mouse samples across a diverse array of tissues, organs, and cell lines. Because these samples predominantly come from the normal physiological state in the human and mouse, this dataset represents a preliminary, but substantial, description of the normal mammalian transcriptome. We have used this dataset to illustrate methods of mining these data, and to reveal insights into molecular and physiological gene function, mechanisms of transcriptional regulation, disease etiology, and comparative genomics. Finally, to allow the scientific community to use this resource, we have built a free and publicly accessible website (http://biogps.gnf.org) that integrates data visualization and curation of current gene annotations.
Large-scale analysis of the human and mouse transcriptomes.

View SamplesIL-6, a proinflammtory cytokine produced by antigen presenting cells and non-hematopoietic cells in response to external stimuli, acts as an important bridge between the innate and adaptive immune responses. IL-6 together with IL-4 can promote Th2 polarization, while in combination with TGFbeta mediates Th17 differentiation. We examined early changes in gene expression in mouse CD4+ T cells induced by IL-6.
The induction of antibody production by IL-6 is indirectly mediated by IL-21 produced by CD4+ T cells.
