Genomic-scale analysis of gene expression in resting and activated T cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent advances in gene array technology and isolation of lymphocytes now allow comprehensive analysis of gene expression in many different types of T cells. So far only a few sets of results have been published. However it is already clear that these analyses provide accurate measurements of gene expression in T cells. This technology offers the first opportunity to examine global and subtle changes in gene expression in response to specific stimuli.

Resting and Activated Natural Tregs Decrease in the Peripheral Blood of Patients with Atherosclerosis
Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting large and medium arteries. CD4+ T cells are known to play a role in the progression of the disease. CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ natural Treg (nTreg) cells seem to have a protective role in the disease and their reduction in acute coronary syndrome is recently shown. Objective: To investigate the frequency of nTreg subsets in the pe...
متن کاملO-31: Mifepristone Acts as Progesterone Antagonistof Non-Genomic Responses but InhibitsPhytohemagglutinin Induced Proliferationin Human T Cells
Background: Progesterone is an endogenous immunomodulator that suppresses T cell activation during pregnancy. The stimulation of membrane progesterone receptors (mPRs) would seem to be the cause of rapid non-genomic responses in human peripheral T cells, such as an elevation of intracellular calcium ([Ca2+] i) and decreased intracellular pH (pHi). Mifepristoneimmune cells compared with progeste...

The transcriptional responses of drug treatments combined with a protein target prediction algorithm was utilised to associate compounds to biological genomic space. This enabled us to predict efficacy of compounds in cMap and LINCS against 181 databases of diseases extracted from GEO. 18/30 of top drugs predicted for leukemia (e.g. Leflunomide and Etoposide) and breast cancer (e.g. Tamoxifen a...
متن کاملAKT family and miRNAs expression in IL-2-induced CD4+T cells
Objective(s): Study of non-coding RNAs is considerable to elucidate principal biological questions or design new therapeutic strategies. miRNAs are a group of non-coding RNAs that their functions in PI3K/AKT signaling and apoptosis pathways after T cell activation is not entirely clear. Herein, miRNAs expression and their putative targets in the mentioned pathways were studied in the activated ...
