Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
The aim of this study was to identify differences in the NK-cell response towards Leishmania mexicana lipophosphoglycan (LPG) between patients with localized (LCL) and diffuse (DCL) cutaneous leishmaniasis through gene expression profiling, in an attempt to pinpoint alterations in the signaling pathways responsible for the NK-cell dysfunction in patients with DCL.

Description
We analyzed gene expression in CD4+ cells sorted from naïve or D30 Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected mice and incubated in vitro in the presence or absence of Schistosoma egg antigen. We found genes associated with Th1 function, T cell signaling, T cell costimulation and T cell activation were downregulated in SEA-treated cells, while expression of Th2 cytokines was below the threshold for detection. Overall design: RNAseq results for 3 replicates for naïve or CD4+ T cells from M.tuberculosis-infected mice treated with or without Schistosoma egg antigen in vitro.

Description
To study characteristics of the orapharyngeal epithelia which may influence susceptibility or resistance to HIV, we performed microarray analysis of the tonsil and gingival epithelium.Tonsil epithelium has been implicated in HIV pathogenesis, but its role in oral transmission remains controversial. We performed microarray analysis of Laser Capture Microdissected tonsil and gingival epithelium. Our data revealed that genes related to immune functions such as antibody production and antigen processing were increasingly expressed in tonsil compared to the epithelium of another oro-pharyngeal site, gingival epithelium. Importantly, tonsil epithelium highly expressed genes associated with HIV entrapment and/or transmission, including the HIV co-receptor CXCR4 and the potential HIV binding molecules, FcRIII, complement receptor 2, and various complement components. This increased expression of molecules involved in viral recognition, binding and entry may favor virus-epithelium interaction in an environment with reduced innate anti-viral mechanisms. Specifically, secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor, an innate molecule with anti-HIV activity, was minimal in the tonsil epithelium, in contrast to oral mucosa. Collectively, our data suggest that increased expression of molecules associated with HIV binding and entry coupled with decreased innate anti-viral factors may render the tonsil a potential site for oral transmission.

Description
The emergence of multidrug resistant (MDR) Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strains, resistant to the frontline anti-tubercular drugs rifampicin and isoniazid, forces treatment with less effective and toxic second-line drugs and stands to derail TB control efforts. However, the immune response to MDR Mtb infection remains poorly understood. Here, we determined the RNA transcriptional profile of in vitro generated macrophages to infection with either drug susceptible Mtb HN878 or MDR Mtb W_7642 infection. Overall design: Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) from WT and Il1r1–/– mice were derived in 7 days in GM-CSF supplemented complete DMEM. Cells were infected with either Mtb HN878 or Mtb W_7642 (multiplicity of infection = 1) and RNA samples collected after 6 days.

Description
Pneumocystis is a pathogen of immunocompromised hosts but can also infect healthy hosts, in whom infection is rapidly controlled and cleared. To better understand the immune mechanisms contributing to clearance of infection, microarray methods were used to examine differential gene expression in the lungs of C57BL/6 and CD40 ligand knock-out (CD40L-KO) mice over time following exposure to Pneumocystis. Immuncompetent C57BL/6 mice, which control and clear infection efficiently, showed a robust response to infection characterized by the upregulation of 349 primarily immune-response associated genes. Temporal changes in the expression of these genes suggested that there was an early (week 2) primarily innate response, that waned without controlling infection; this were followed by primarily adaptive immune responses that peaked at week 5 and successfully cleared the infection. In conjunction with the latter, there was an increased expression of B cell associated (immunoglobulin) genes at week 6 that persisted through 11 weeks. In contrast, CD40L-KO mice, which are highly susceptible to developing severe Pneumocystis pneumonia, showed essentially no upregulation of immune-response associated genes at days 35 to 75. Immunohistochemical staining supported these observations by demonstrating an increase in CD4+, CD68+, and CD19+ cells in C57BL/6 but not CD40L-KO mice. Thus, the healthy host demonstrates a robust biphasic response to infection by Pneumocystis; CD40 ligand is an essential upstream regulator of the adaptive immune responses that efficiently control infection and prevent development of progressive pneumonia.
Publication Title
Immune responses to Pneumocystis murina are robust in healthy mice but largely absent in CD40 ligand-deficient mice.
