Transcriptome analysis comparing naive, protective and non-protective spleen memory CD8 T lymphocytes were conducted to identify key functions associated with memory CD8-mediated immune protection. Memory CD8 T cells generated in response to influenza or vaccinia infection (Flu-memory and VV-memory) were compared to inflammatory memory cells (TIM) that were generated by peptide in inflammatory context. Gene expression analysis was performed on quiescent and re-stimulated CD8 T cells.
Immune signatures of protective spleen memory CD8 T cells.

View SamplesIn euakryotes, mRNAs must be exported from the nucleus to the cytsoplasm. NXF2 is highly expressed in the mouse male germ cells. We are interested in its function in spermatogenesis, espically in the nuclear RNA export in the testis. To this end, we made Nxf2 mutant mice by gene targeting. In an attempt to identify the mRNA substrates of NXF2, we perform the microarray experiments on testes.
Inactivation of Nxf2 causes defects in male meiosis and age-dependent depletion of spermatogonia.
