RNA-seq of diabetic or non-diabetic murine bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDM)
The aim of this study was to interrogate whether BMDM basal or pro-inflammatory stimulated gene expression is altered by diabetes and persists despite in vitro glucose normalisation. Unstimulated BMDM from diabetic mice differentially express 632 genes (324 increased and 308 downregulated) compared to unstimulated control BMDM; this increases to 1,348 genes (802 increased and 546 decreased) upon stimulation (FDR<0.05, FC>1.5). Overall design: 6 diabetic mice samples and 6 non-diabetic control mice samples were used. Each sample was split in half, one half submitted as a baseline, unstimulated control and the other was stimulated with LPS + IFNy.
