Genome wide expression profiles (RNAseq) of human CD8+ T cells in resting, activated (CD3+CD28) and PD-1-stimulated cells (CD3+CD28+PD-L1-Fc) at diferent time points
Background: Binding of the programmed death-1 (PD-1) receptor to its ligands (PD-L1/2) transduces inhibitory signals that promote exhaustion of activated T cells. Blockade of the PD 1 pathway is widely used for cancer treatment, yet the inhibitory signals transduced by PD-1 in T cells remain elusive. Methods: Expression profiles of human CD8+ T cells in resting, activated (CD3+CD28) and PD-1-stimulated cells (CD3+CD28+PD-L1-Fc) conditions were evaluated by RNA-seq. Bioinformatic analyses were used to identify signaling pathways differentially regulated in PD 1-stimulated cells. Overall design: Total RNA was isolated from T control (IgG1-coated beads were used as control , N=3), T activadas (N=3) and Tactivadas+PD1 (N=3) at 6, 24 and 48 h post-stimulation.
