We aimed to identify key genes and pathways associated with different immune statuses of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. The gene expression and DNA methylation profiles were analysed in different immune statuses of HBV infection. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially methylated genes (DMGs) were identified, followed by their functional and integrative analyses. The differential expression of IgG Fc receptors (FcγRs) in chronic HBV‐infected patients and immune cells during different stages of HBV infection was investigated. Toll‐like receptor (TLR) signalling pathway (including TLR6) and leucocyte transendothelial migration pathway (including integrin subunit beta 1) were enriched during acute infection. Key DEGs, such as FcγR Ib and FcγR Ia, and interferon‐alpha inducible protein 27 showed correlation with alanine aminotransferase levels, and they were differentially expressed between acute and immune‐tolerant phases and between immune‐tolerant and immune‐clearance phases. The integrative analysis of DNA methylation profile showed that lowly methylated and highly expressed genes, including cytotoxic T lymphocyte‐associated protein 4 and mitogen‐activated protein kinase 3 were enriched in T cell receptor signalling pathway during acute infection. Highly methylated and lowly expressed genes, such as Ras association domain family member 1 and cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor 2A were identified in chronic infection. Furthermore, differentially expressed FcγR Ia, FcγR IIa and FcγR IIb, CD3?CD56+CD16+ natural killer cells and CD14highCD16+ monocytes were identified between immune‐tolerant and immune‐clearance phases by experimental validation. The above genes and pathways may be used to distinguish different immune statuses of HBV infection. 相似文献

Infection with Plasmodium vivax results in strong activation of monocytes, which are important components of both the systemic inflammatory response and parasite control. The overall goal of this study was to define the role of monocytes during P. vivax malaria. Here, we demonstrate that P. vivax–infected patients display significant increase in circulating monocytes, which were defined as CD14+CD16− (classical), CD14+CD16+ (inflammatory), and CD14loCD16+ (patrolling) cells. While the classical and inflammatory monocytes were found to be the primary source of pro-inflammatory cytokines, the CD16+ cells, in particular the CD14+CD16+ monocytes, expressed the highest levels of activation markers, which included chemokine receptors and adhesion molecules. Morphologically, CD14+ were distinguished from CD14lo monocytes by displaying larger and more active mitochondria. CD14+CD16+ monocytes were more efficient in phagocytizing P. vivax-infected reticulocytes, which induced them to produce high levels of intracellular TNF-α and reactive oxygen species. Importantly, antibodies specific for ICAM-1, PECAM-1 or LFA-1 efficiently blocked the phagocytosis of infected reticulocytes by monocytes. Hence, our results provide key information on the mechanism by which CD14+CD16+ cells control parasite burden, supporting the hypothesis that they play a role in resistance to P. vivax infection. 相似文献

In this study, phorbol‐12‐myristate‐13‐acetate (PMA) at low concentrations (<10 nM; L‐PMA) induces the differentiation of CD14+ monocytes into monocyte‐derived macrophages (MDMs) while PMA at high concentrations (>100 nM; H‐PMA) causes the apoptosis of these cells. The pre‐treatment with Go6976 (a PKC‐α/β1 selective inhibitor), not anilinemonoindolylmaleimide [a PKC‐β inhibitor (PKC‐β inh.)], significantly (P < 0.05) reduces the L‐PMA‐induced generation of MDMs in the cultured CD14+ monocytes. On the other hand, either of the above two PKC inhibitors is capable of suppressing the H‐PMA‐induced apoptosis of CD14+ monocytes. However, only the inclusion of PKC‐β inh., not Go6976, prevents the cells from serum deprivation‐induced cell apoptosis. Although the membrane translocation of conventional PKC‐α, β1, and β2 isoforms was observed in the H‐PMA‐treated CD14+ monocytes, only PKC‐β2 exhibits a mitochondrial translocation activity among those PKCs responsive to H‐PMA treatment. Moreover, the activation of DEVD‐dependent caspases (DEVDase) was also detected in the H‐PMA‐treated CD14+ monocytes, indicating the involvement of a caspase‐dependent signaling pathway in the H‐PMA‐induced cell apoptosis of CD14+ monocytes. Together with our previous findings that the selective activation of PKC‐α or PKC‐β1 induces the differentiation of CD14+ monocytes into MDMs or dendritic cells (MoDCs), respectively, the results in this study further demonstrate that PKC‐β2 activation is responsible for relaying the apoptotic signal to intrinsic mitochondria‐dependent caspase signaling cascades in the CD14+ monocytes. It is likely that the selective activation of specific PKC isoforms provides a new strategy to manipulate the differential cell fate commitment of multipotent CD14+ monocytes towards apoptosis or differentiation into MDMs, MoDCs, and other cell types.

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α is one of the major proinflammatory mediators of rheumatic arthritis (RA); the regulatory factors for TNF-α release is not fully understood. This study aims to investigate the role of prolactin receptor (PRLR) activation in regulating the expression and release of TNF-α from CD14+ monocytes. The results showed that the expression of PRLR was detectable in CD14+ monocytes of healthy subjects, which was markedly increased in RA patients. Exposure to PRL in the culture increased the expression and release of TNF-α from CD14+ monocytes, which was abolished by the PRLR gene silencing or blocking the mitogen activated protein (MAPK) pathway. We conclude that exposure to PRL increases TNF-α release from CD14+ monocytes of RA patients, which can be abolished by PRLR gene silencing or treating with MAPK inhibitor. 相似文献

Particulate matter (PM) causes several diseases, including cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Previous studies compared the gene expression patterns in airway epithelial cells and keratinocytes exposed to PM. However, analysis of differentially expressed gene (DEGs) in endothelial cells exposed to PM2.5 (diameter less than 2.5 μm) from fossil fuel combustion has been limited. Here, we exposed human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to PM2.5 from combustion of gasoline, performed RNA-seq analysis, and identified DEGs. Exposure to the IC50 concentrations of gasoline engine exhaust PM2.5 (GPM) for 24 h yielded 1081 (up-regulation: 446, down-regulation: 635) DEGs. The most highly up-regulated gene is NGFR followed by ADM2 and NUPR1. The most highly down-regulated gene is TNFSF10 followed by GDF3 and EDN1. Gene Ontology enrichment analysis revealed that GPM regulated genes involved in cardiovascular system development, tube development and circulatory system development. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and Reactome pathway analyses showed that genes related to cytokine–cytokine receptor interactions and cytokine signaling in the immune system were significantly affected by GPM. We confirmed the RNA-seq data of some highly altered genes by qRT-PCR and showed the induction of NGFR, ADM2 and IL-11 at a protein level, indicating that the observed gene expression patterns were reliable. Given the adverse effects of PM2.5 on CVDs, our findings provide new insight into the importance of several DEGs and pathways in GPM-induced CVDs. 相似文献

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a serious heart disease. The cardiac cells of patients with MI will die due to lack of blood for a long time. In this study, we aimed to find new targets for MI diagnosis and therapy. We downloaded GSE22229 including 12 blood samples from healthy persons and GSE29111 from Gene Expression Omnibus including 36 blood samples from MI patients. Then we identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in patients with MI compared to normal controls with p value < 0.05 and |logFC| > 1. Furthermore, interaction network and sub-network of these of these DEGs were constructed by NetBox. Linker genes were screened in the Global Network database. The degree of linker genes were calculated by igraph package in R language. Gene ontology and kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway analysis were performed for DEGs and network modules. A total of 246 DEGs were identified in MI, which were enriched in the immune response. In the interaction network, LCK, CD247, CD3D, FYN, HLA-DRA, IL2, CD8A CD3E, CD4, CD3G had high degree, among which CD3E, CD4, CD3G were DEGs while others were linker genes screened from Global Network database. Genes in the sub-network were also enriched in the immune response pathway. The genes with high degree may be biomarkers for MI diagnosis and therapy. 相似文献

Monocytes exhibit direct and indirect antitumour activities and may be potentially useful for various forms of adoptive cellular immunotherapy of cancer. However, blood is a limited source of them. This study explored whether monocytes can be obtained from bone marrow haematopoietic CD34+ stem cells of colon cancer patients, using previously described protocol of expansion and differentiation to monocytes of cord blood-derived CD34+ haematopoietic progenitors. Data show that in two-step cultures, the yield of cells was increased approximately 200-fold, and among these cells, up to 60 % of CD14+ monocytes were found. They consisted of two subpopulations: CD14++CD16+ and CD14+CD16?, at approximately 1:1 ratio, that differed in HLA-DR expression, being higher on the former. No differences in expression of costimulatory molecules were observed, as CD80 was not detected, while CD86 expression was comparable. These CD14+ monocytes showed the ability to present recall antigens (PPD, Candida albicans) and neoantigens expressed on tumour cells and tumour-derived microvesicles (TMV) to autologous CD3+ T cells isolated from the peripheral blood. Monocytes also efficiently presented the immunodominant HER-2/neu369–377 peptide (KIFGSLAFL), resulting in the generation of specific cytotoxic CD8+ T lymphocytes (CTL). The CD14++CD16+ subset exhibited enhanced cytotoxicity, though nonsignificant, towards tumour cells in vitro. These observations indicate that generation of monocytes from CD34+ stem cells of cancer patients is feasible. To our knowledge, it is the first demonstration of such approach that may open a way to obtain autologous monocytes for alternative forms of adaptive and adoptive cellular immunotherapy of cancer. 相似文献

Spinal cord injury (SCI) remains to be the most devastating type of trauma for patients because of long lasting disability and limited response to the acute drug administration and efforts at rehabilitation. With the purpose to identify potential targets for SCI treatment and to gain more insights into the mechanisms of SCI, the microarray data of GSE2270, including 119 raphe magnus (RM) samples and 125 sensorimotor cortex (SMTC) samples, was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened in RM group and SMTC group compared with their corresponding controls, respectively. A protein–protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed based on the common DEGs identified in both RM group and SMTC group. Gene ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analyses of the overlapping DEGs were performed. Furthermore, the common DEGs enriched in each pathway were analyzed to identify significant regulatory elements. Totally, 173 overlapping DEGs (130 up-regulated and 43 down-regulated) were identified in both RM and SMTC samples. These overlapping DEGs were enriched in different GO terms. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed that DEGs were mainly related to inflammation and immunity. CD68 molecule (CD68) was a hub protein in the PPI network. Moreover, the regulatory network showed that ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 2 (RAC2), CD44 molecule (CD44), and actin related protein 2/3 complex (ARPC1B) were hub genes. RAC2, CD44, and ARPC1B may be significantly involved in the pathogenesis of SCI by participating significant pathways such as extracellular matrix-receptor signaling pathway and Toll-like receptor signaling pathway. 相似文献

Chemokines and their receptors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of different forms of heart failure (HF). We examined
CC-and CXC-chemokine receptor expression in fresh peripheral blood leukocyte populations from 24 end-stage HF patients consisting
of coronary artery disease (CAD; n=6) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM; n=7) or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDCM; n=8) or valvular disease (VD; n=3) and compared the data with 18 healthy controls. Levels of CCR1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7, and CXCR1, 2, 3, and 4 were measured
by flow cytometry, and the expression profile was assessed as molecules of equivalent soluble fluorochrome units as well as
frequency (percentage) of CD3+, CD4+, and CD8+ T cells and monocytes or granulocytes. Frequency of CD3+ CXCR4+, CD3+ CXCR1+, and CD3+ CXCR3+ cells was significantly increased in HF patients, whereas only CCR7 and CXCR4 expression levels were elevated on CD3+ cells. Both CD4+ CXCR4+ and CD8+ CXCR4+ cell frequencies were significantly increased irrespective of cardiac disease etiology. Elevated CCR7 expression was less
pronounced on CD4+ than CD8+ cells in patients with CAD and IDCM. Expression of CXCR4 on CD8+ cells was upregulated substantially, regardless of the cause of disease. CD8+ CXCR1+ and CD8+ CXCR3+ but not CD4+ CXCR1+ or CD4+ CXCR3+ cells were increased in the HF patients with IDCM and CAD, respectively. Expression of CXCR1 or CXCR3 on both CD4+ and CD8+ cells did not differ in all the groups. For monocytes, frequency of CD14+ CCR1+ and CD14+ CCR2+ cells was significantly decreased in CAD patients, whereas, increase in CD14+ CXCR4+ cell frequency was accompanied with elevated CXCR4 expression. On granulocytes, CXCR1 and CXCR2 receptors were downregulated
in all patients, compared with controls. Our results suggest that the altered expression profile of CC- and CXC-chemokine
receptors on circulating leukocyte populations involves enhanced activation of the immune system, perhaps as part of the pathogenic
mechanisms in HF. Modulation of the chemokine network could offer interesting novel therapeutic modalities for end-stage HF. 相似文献

Background
High-throughput sequencing, such as ribonucleic acid sequencing (RNA-seq) and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) analyses, enables various features of organisms to be compared through tag counts. Recent studies have demonstrated that the normalization step for RNA-seq data is critical for a more accurate subsequent analysis of differential gene expression. Development of a more robust normalization method is desirable for identifying the true difference in tag count data.Results
We describe a strategy for normalizing tag count data, focusing on RNA-seq. The key concept is to remove data assigned as potential differentially expressed genes (DEGs) before calculating the normalization factor. Several R packages for identifying DEGs are currently available, and each package uses its own normalization method and gene ranking algorithm. We compared a total of eight package combinations: four R packages (edgeR, DESeq, baySeq, and NBPSeq) with their default normalization settings and with our normalization strategy. Many synthetic datasets under various scenarios were evaluated on the basis of the area under the curve (AUC) as a measure for both sensitivity and specificity. We found that packages using our strategy in the data normalization step overall performed well. This result was also observed for a real experimental dataset.Conclusion
Our results showed that the elimination of potential DEGs is essential for more accurate normalization of RNA-seq data. The concept of this normalization strategy can widely be applied to other types of tag count data and to microarray data. 相似文献20.
