“…RNA gene expression profiling of CLCA1-CM-versus pcDNA-CM-stimulated WT alveolar macrophages was performed via microarray analysis and identified other genes regulated by CLCA1 which play a role in early immune responsesGene name | Description | log FC | Biological relevance |
Ccl5
| Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 5 (Ccl5) | − 2.71 | Plays an active role in leukocyte recruitment to sites of inflammation, including T cells, macrophages, eosinophils, and basophils (Aldinucci and Colombatti 2014) |
Emr4
| EGF-like module containing, mucin-like, hormone receptor-like sequence 4 (Emr4) | − 2.26 | Predominantly expressed on resident macrophages, expression is up-regulated following macrophage activation (Stacey et al 2002) |
Bpifa1
| BPI fold containing family A, member 1 (Bpifa1) | 2.18 | Abundantly secreted in the respiratory tract, antimicrobial- and anti-biofilm properties, regulates mucociliary clearance and downstream chemokine CCL24 (eotaxin-2) expression (Britto and Cohn 2015) |
Ccr7
| Chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 7 (Ccr7) | − 2.15 | Expressed in lymphoid tissues, activates B and T lymphocytes, controls the migration of memory T cells to inflamed tissues (NCBI—C–C motif chemokine receptor 7 2016), regulates T cell trafficking and compartmentalization within secondary lymphoid organs (Sharma et al 2015) |
Il-1β
| Interleukin 1 beta (Il-1β) | − 2.13 | Produced by activated macrophages, mediator of the inflammatory response (NCBI—Interleukin-1 beta 2016a), involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis (NCBI—Interleukin-1 beta 2016b) |
Aoah
| Acyloxyacyl hydrolase (Aoah) | − 2.13 | Enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acyl chains from bacterial LPS, modulates host inflammatory response to Gram-negative bacteria (NCBI—acyloxyacyl hydrolase 2016) |
Ly6i
| Lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus I (Ly6i) | − 2.12 | Takes part in differentiation of various hematopoietic lineages, highly present on immature granulocytes and monocytes, could function in a common pathway for T and B lymphocyte development, useful in characterizing different stages of T lymphocyte development and activation (Pflugh et al 2000) |
Ly6c1
| Lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus C1 (Ly6c1) | − 2.12 | |
