RNA seq analysis of human monocyte subsets in healthy and dengue subjects
In this analysis, sorted classical (CM), intermediate (IM) and non-classical (NCM) monocyte subsets from children under steady state (healthy, H) and dengue febrile illness (Dengue, D) were analyzed for their transcriptional profiles using RNA seq. The monocyte subsets were sorted from peripheral blood cells after excluding CD3, CD19, CD20, CD56, CD66b and NKp30 positive cells and then gating on HLADR positive population to identify CM, IM and NCM subsets based on surface expression of CD16 and CD14. The transcriptional profile of the three monocyte subsets was separately compared in healthy children, in dengue febrile children and in dengue versus healthy states. This study highlights hierarchy of gene expression in classical, intermediate and non-classical monocytes in healthy and dengue febrile conditions. Overall design: Expression analysis of  CD14+ CD16 low classical monocytes, CD14+ CD16+ intermediate monocytes and CD14 low CD16+ non-classical monocytes sorted from healthy and dengue subjects.
