RNA-seq of mouse alveolar macrophages sorted from CD11cCre/+ Tgfbr2fl/fl and control Tgfbr2fl/fl neonatal mice
Alveolar macrophages (AMs) are lung resident phagocytes. They derive from fetal liver monocytes, which colonize the lung during embryonic development and give rise to fully mature AMs perinatally. We have identified TGF-ß signaling as an indispensible regulator during this process. To analyze the impact of TGF-ß on the entire transcriptome of AMs, we performed RNA-seq on AMs deficient of Tgfbr2 in CD11cCre/+ Tgfbr2fl/fl mice at P3 with Tgfbr2fl/fl littermates as a control.
