Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of Manganese (II) or LPS treated Wild Type BMDC Transcriptomes
Purpose: The goals of this study are to compare the different functions of manganese (II) and LPS on the activation and maturation of antigen presenting cells-BMDCs. Methods: BMDCs were generated by culturing bone marrow cells with 20 ng/ml of IL-4 (Genscript) and 20 ng/ml of GM-CSF (Genscript) at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 7 days.Then BMDCs were treated with MnCl2 (200 µM) or LPS (100 ng/ml) for 20 h. Then mRNAs were purified, sequenced and analyzed. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we compared 20339 transcripts in BMDCs. Manganese (II) induced 1677 transcripts expression with a fold change =1.5 and LPS induced 1555 transcripts expression with a fold change =1.5. Conclusion: Manganese (II) activates the production of type I IFNs and the maturation of BMDCs. But there are also some differences between functions of manganese (II) and LPS on BMDCs. Overall design: mRNA profiles of control, Manganese (II) or LPS treated BMDCs were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina Hiseq2500.
