Systematic meta-analysis and replication of genome-w...

Fresh frozen tissue blocks from cerebellar hemispheres of PD patients and controls were provided by the Queens Square Brain Bank for Neurological Disorders (London, UK). Total RNA was isolated from about 500 mg fresh frozen postmortem tissue from each subject by using Trizol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer's protocol and further purified using the RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Quality of the extracted total RNA was assessed using an Agilent 2...

T helper lymphocyte- and monocyte-specific type I in...

Collection of cells from Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) patients: For CD4pos T cells, six patients with SLE (average age: 29.0 +/- 7.6) and four normal healthy donors (ND; 24.8 +/- 0.5) were recruited. For CD16neg monocytes, four patients with SLE (26.5 +/- 1.7) and four NDs (24.8 +/- 0.5) were recruited. For CD16pos monocytes, four patients with SLE (26.5 +/- 1.7) and three NDs (24.7 +/- 0.6) were recruited. All patients and NDs were female. The same NDs were examined before and after im...

TREM-1 is a novel therapeutic target in Psoriasis

Monocytes were isolated by plastic adherence, treated with TLR agonists overnight, washed twice and harvested in RTL-buffer. RNA was extracted and processed for microarray.3 groups and 3 replicates with a paired structure across replicates

Temporal transcriptional changes in human monocytes ...

Monocytes play a central role in the inflammatory response that follows acute myocardial infarction (MI). In order to study phenotypic adaptation of this cell type, we investigated patterns of monocyte gene expression in circulating monocytes at various stages of MI. Circulating monocytes were isolated from venous blood of MI patients at three time points: t1: within 6 hours after onset of chest pain (acute phase), t2: 3 days after MI (subacute phase), t3: 90 days after MI (chronic phase). Fo...
