We report gene expression data for the human cell lines HL-60 and PLB-985, which serve as models for human neutrophils. We measured gene expression using RNA-Seq for these cell lines both prior and after differentiation into a neutrophil-like state using two differentiation protocols (treatment with DMSO or treatment with DMSO and replacement of serum with Nutridoma). Overall design: HL-60 and PLB-985 cells grown in culture were processed for RNA-Seq both before and after differentiation for six days in media supplemented with 1.3% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The cell lines were also analyzed after differentiation for six days in media with 1.3% DMSO, reduced serum (0.5% FBS), and Nutridoma-CS (2%). PLB-985 cells were also analyzed at intermediate time points of 2 days and 4 days with the Nutridoma protocol.

View SamplesWe show that infant trauma, as modeled by infant paired odor-shock conditioning, results in later life depressive-like behavior that can be modulated by learned infant cues (i.e., odor previously paired with shock). We have previously shown that this infant attachment odor learning paradigm results in the creation of a new artificial maternal odor that is able to control pup behavior and retain its value throughout development. Here, we assess the mechanism by which this artificial maternal odor is able to rescue depressive-like behavior and show that this anti-depressant like effect results in glucocorticoid and serotonin (5-HT) related changes in amygdala gene expression and is dependent on amygdala 5-HT. Furthermore, increasing amygdala 5-HT and blocking corticosterone (CORT) in the absence of odor mimics the adult rescue effects elicited by the artificial maternal odor, suggesting a mechanism by which odor presentation exerts its repair effects.

View SamplesNF-kB has been linked to doxorubicin-based chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer patients. NF-kB nuclear translocation and DNA binding in doxorubicin treated-breast cancer cells have been extensively examined, however its functional consequences in terms the spectrum of NF-kB -dependent genes expressed and, thus, the impact on tumour cell behaviour are unclear.
Deficiency in p53 is required for doxorubicin induced transcriptional activation of NF-кB target genes in human breast cancer.

View SamplesSequencing data related to our manuscript "Systematic identification of general and context-specific regulators of phagocytosis using magnetic genome-wide CRISPR screens" Overall design: Two groups of U937 cells were sequenced before and after PMA differentiation. One group carried Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 and a safe-harbor control sgRNA, and the second group was a clonally expanded U937 line expressing GFP. Each group was separated into eight separate wells at d0, and half of the wells were treated with 50 nM PMA. At day 3, undifferentiated cells were split to prevent overcrowding, and differentiated cells were trypsinized and replated. Cells were allowed to recover for 2 additional days before cells were lysed for RNA harvest and sequencing.

View SamplesMononuclear phagocytes (MPs), including monocytes and macrophages, play complex roles in the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). We aimed to perform global transcriptome analysis on monocytes from AMD patients to obtain additional insight to the role of MPs in AMD. Peripheral blood was taken from treatment-nave neovascular AMD (nvAMD) patients (n=14), and age-matched controls (n=15). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were separated and monocytes were isolated via negative selection. Gene expression was evaluated with Affymetrix Gene1.0 ST microarrays. Statistical/bioinformatics analysis was performed using open sourceware programs.

View SamplesObjective: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS), characterized by a global increasing incidence driven by relapsing-remitting disease in females. p38 MAP kinase (MAPK) has been described as a key regulator of inflammatory responses in autoimmunity, but its role in the sexual dimorphism in MS or MS models remains unexplored. Methods: Toward this end, we used experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), the principal animal model of MS, combined with pharmacologic and genetic inhibition of p38 MAPK activity and transcriptomic analyses. Results: Pharmacologic inhibition of p38 MAPK selectively ameliorated EAE in female mice. Conditional deletion studies demonstrated that p38 signaling in macrophages/myeloid cells, but not T cells or dendritic cells, recapitulated this sexual dimorphism. Analysis of CNS inflammatory infiltrates showed that female, but not male mice lacking p38 in myeloid cells exhibited reduced immune cell activation compared with controls, while peripheral T cell priming was unaffected in both sexes. Transcriptomic analyses of myeloid cells revealed differences in p38-controlled transcripts comprising female- and male-specific gene modules, with greater p38 dependence of pro-inflammatory gene expression in females. Interpretation: Our findings demonstrate a key role for p38 in myeloid cells in CNS autoimmunity and uncover important molecular mechanisms underlying sex differences in disease pathogenesis. Taken together, our results suggest that the p38 MAPK signaling pathway represents a novel target for much needed disease modifying therapies for MS
