Description
To gain comprehensive insight into the OGT-dependent transcriptional program in Treg cells, we performed RNA-sequencing of isolated YFP+ Treg cells from Foxp3YFP-Cre/wtOgtwt/fl and healthy Foxp3YFP-Cre/wtOgtfl/fl females to avoid secondary changes in gene expression caused by inflammation. We were able to identify 269 differentially expressed genes including 154 downregulated and 115 upregulated with p values less than 0.01, OGT-deficient Treg cells had impaired suppressive function and attenuated IL2/STAT5 signaling pathway. Overall design: Examination of the function of OGT in Treg cells
