RNA-seq of murine Th1 and Th2 cells differentiated for 24hr with or without the presence of actin and EZH2 inhibitors
CD4 T helper cells can differentiate to several types of cells like Th1, Th2, Th17 and Treg. This process is directed by cytokines and activation of T cells by specific antigens. This process has its own plasticity and it is directed by epigenetic changes allowing cells to develop and differentiate. In this experiment, we wanted to explore if EZH2 has a transcriptional regulation in the first day of differentiation. To study this we performed RNA-seq with or without UNC1999, an EZH2 inhibitor. Moreover, we wanted to learn the interaction between EZH2 and nuclear Actin, so Cytochalasin B was added to look for similar transcriptional pattern.
