View SamplesRecent advances in direct reprogramming using cell type-specific transcription factors provide an unprecedented opportunity for rapid generation of desired human cell types from easily accessible tissues. However, due to the diversity of conversion factors that facilitate the process, an arduous screening step is inevitable to find the appropriate combination(s). Here, we show that under chemically defined conditions minimal pluripotency factors are sufficient to directly reprogram human fibroblasts into stably self-renewing neural progenitor/stem cells (NSCs), but without passing through a pluripotent intermediate stage. These NSCs can be expanded and propagated in vitro without losing their potential to differentiate into various neuronal subtypes and glia. Our direct reprogramming strategy represents a simple and advanced paradigm of direct conversion that will provide an unlimited source of human neural cells for cell therapy, disease modeling, and drug screening.
Small molecules enable OCT4-mediated direct reprogramming into expandable human neural stem cells.

View SamplesWe performed single-cell RNA-seq on CD4 T cells isolated from the tonsils of one healthy donor. We used the 10x chromium technology. Overall design: Tonsil CD4 T cells were enriched by negative selection using magnetic beads. Cell populations (CXCR5+PD-1low T cells, CXCR5+PD-1int T cells and CXCR5+PD-1high T cells ) were further isolated by cell sorting. Cellular suspensions (3500 cells) were loaded on a 10X Chromium instrument (10X Genomics) according to manufacturer's protocol.
Human lymphoid organ cDC2 and macrophages play complementary roles in T follicular helper responses.

View SamplesWe performed single-cell RNA-seq on CD14+ cells isolated from the tonsils of one healthy donor. We used the 10x chromium technology. Overall design: Tonsil phagocytes were prepared by centrifugation on a Ficoll gradient. Dendritic cells and macrophages were enriched by negative selection using magnetic beads. Cell populations were further isolated by cell sorting. Cellular suspensions (3500 cells) were loaded on a 10X Chromium instrument (10X Genomics) according to manufacturer's protocol.

View SamplesWe report RNA sequencing data from tenocytes treated with IGF1. Tenocytes were obtained from the tail tendons of adult C57Bl/6 mice via collagenase digestion. Tenocytes were grown to 60% confluence, and then treated with 100ng/mL of recombinant IGF1 for a period of 0, 1, 2, 6, or 24 hours. Experiments were conducted in quadruplicate. RNA was isolated and prepared for RNA sequencing. Overall design: Differential expression of mRNAs were evaluated from tenocytes isolated from tail tendons of adult wild type C57Bl/6 mice that were treated with recombinant IGF1 for 0, 1, 2, 6, and 24 hours.
Insulin-like growth factor 1 signaling in tenocytes is required for adult tendon growth.

View SamplesPlasmodium berghei ANKA infection in mice is used as a model for human cerebral malaria, the most severe complication of Plasmodium falciparum infection. The response of brain cells such as microglia has been little investigated, and may play a role in the pathogenesis or regulation of cerebral malaria. We showed previously that microglia are activated in P. berghei infections, and that Type 1 Interferon signaling is important for activation. This dataset contains the transcriptome of brain microglia of infected mice in the presence and absence of Type I interferon signaling, with the aim of identifying the genes involved in this pathway in microglia during experimental cerebral malaria.

View SamplesPlatelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) signaling plays an important role in the embryonic formation of many different tissues. There is a family of PDGF isoforms which signal through the PDGF receptors (PDGFR) and (PDGFR). PDGF regulates many key cellular processes of mesenchymal cell function including proliferation, differentiation, migration and extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis. While PDGF has been used to enhance flexor tendon healingin vivo, its role in postnatal tendon growth has remained largely unexplored. To determine the importance of PDGFR signaling in postnatal tendon growth, we performed pharmacological blockade of PDGFR and PDGFR, and then induced tendon growth via mechanical overload using the hindlimb synergist ablation model. Our hypothesis was that inhibition of PDGFR signaling will restrict normal growth of tendon tissue in response to mechanical loading.
Postnatal tendon growth and remodeling require platelet-derived growth factor receptor signaling.
