Bulk RNA-seq of alveolar macrophages from WT (Lepr+/+, Lyz2-Cre) and Lepr KO (Leprfl/fl, Lyz2-Cre) mice
To study the regulation of Lepr on transcriptome in WT and Lepr KO AMs under resting state and after LPS stimulation, Lepr-sufficient (Lepr+/+, Lyz2-Cre) and Lepr-deficient (Leprfl/fl, Lyz2-Cre) alveolar macrophages (AMs) were isolated by collecting BALF. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was added in vitro for 1h or cells were left untreated. Total RNA was extracted for deep sequencing. Gene expression in WT and Lepr KO cells were analyzed. Overall design: WT and Lepr KO AMs were isolated. After attaching to plate, cells were left unstimulated or stimulated with LPS for 1h. Total RNA was isolated and libraries were prepapred for high throughput sequencing.
