Genome-Wide Gene Expression Analysis of Mtb-Infected DC Highlights the Rapamycin-Driven Modulation of Regulatory Cytokines via the mTOR/GSK-3β Axis
16 Apr 2021
Abstract excerpt
In human primary dendritic cells (DC) rapamycin—an autophagy inducer and protein synthesis inhibitor—overcomes the autophagy block induced by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and promotes a Th1 response via IL-12 secretion. Here, the immunostimulatory activity of rapamycin in Mtb-infected DC was further investigated by analyzing both transcriptome and translatome gene profiles. Hundreds of differentially...
