Gene expression of Mirc11-/- hematopoietic myeloid progenitors
Compared gene expression between Lin-Sca1-cKit+ myeloid progenitors isolated from the bone marrow of 6-8 week old wildtype and Mirc11-/- mice. Previously observed that overexpression of Mirc11 in hematopoietic progenitors increased myeloid differentiation whereas loss of Mirc11 decreased myeloid differentiation. Performed RNA-seq to identify potential genes involved in myeloid differentiation regulated by Mirc11.  Gene expression analysis of Mirc11 deficient myeloid progenitors revealed a decrease in Toll like receptor and interferon signaling. This anti-inflammatory phenotype was further observed in mature cells as Mirc11-/- bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs) have an attenuated response to inflammatory lip-opolysaccharide (LPS). Overall design: Sequenced total RNA obtained from Lin-Sca1-cKit+ bone marrow cells obtained from cohorts of wildtype and Mirc11 deleted mice.
