Gene Expression Pattern <strong>of</strong> Bone-Marrow Derived Macrophages after Interferon-gamma Treatment<br />

The peptide transporters Tap1 and Tap2 translocate peptides from cytosolic proteasome into<br />

the endoplasmatic reticulum, where they bind to MHC-I molecules, while the peptide-MHCcomplexes<br />

are lateron transferred to the cell surface. Tap1 and Tap2 are described to be induced<br />

<strong>by</strong> IFN-γ (Brucet et al. 2004, e. g. human, Ma W et al. 1997, Schiffer et al. 2002). In this study,<br />

Tap1 (5.0 / 5.2) and Tap2 (3.3 / 3.0) were higher expressed after IFN-γ treatment in BMM <strong>of</strong> both<br />

strains BALB/c and C57BL/6 (Fig. R.3.4 A, B). Erap 1, an endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase<br />

that takes part in further processing and N-terminal trimming <strong>of</strong> the peptides in the ER (Chang et<br />

al. 2005, Jung et al. 2009), was additionally induced after IFN-γ treatment in BALB/c BMM (2.1)<br />

and C57BL/6 BMM (2.2) [data not shown]. Finally, several genes <strong>of</strong> MHC class I and class II<br />

molecules were induced after IFN-γ treatment in BMM <strong>of</strong> both strains BALB/c and C57BL/6 [data<br />

not shown].<br />

Comparison <strong>of</strong> differentially expressed gene lists (Fig. R.3.2 A), comparison <strong>of</strong> log 2 -ratio data<br />

(Fig. R.3.2 B), and Ingenuity Pathway Analyis (Fig. R.3.4) revealed highly similar gene expression<br />

signatures in BALB/c and C57BL/6 BMM after IFN-γ treatment even for genes which were only<br />

differentially expressed in one <strong>of</strong> the two comparisons. Therefore, further analysis <strong>of</strong> biological<br />

effects resulting from IFN-γ treatment was performed using the union list <strong>of</strong> IFN-γ effects in<br />

BALB/c and C57BL/6 BMM.<br />

First, the list <strong>of</strong> in total 531 IFN-γ dependent genes was subjected to a global functional<br />

analysis using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA, www.ingenuity.com), which compared functional<br />

categories within the data set with those <strong>of</strong> the complete array and assigned a p-value to rate on<br />

significant overrepresentation (Table R.3.3).<br />
