GSE141308: Transcriptional profile of human macrophages stimulated by cartilage fragments

• Organsim mouse
• Type RNASEQ
• Target gene
• Project ARCHS4

Accumulating evidence suggests that synovitis is associated with osteoarthritic process. Macrophages are predominant cell type in synovium and play principal role in development of synovitis. Our earlier study suggests that the interaction between cartilage fragments and macrophages exacerbates osteoarthritic process. However, molecular mechanisms by which cartilage fragments trigger cellular responses remain to be investigated. Therefore, the current study aims at analyzing molecular response of macrophages to cartilage fragments by RNA-seq SOURCE: Mohamad Alaa Terkawi (materkawi@med.hokudai.ac.jp) - Hokkaido University
