Whole genome expression profile of human decidual PMN-MDSC and autologous neutrophils in normal pregnancy

It is suggested that decidual polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cell (PMN-MDSCs) are a group of activated suppressive neutrophils. Decidual microenvironment can facilitate circulating neutrophils with phenotypes and functions of PMN-MDSCs. The mechanism of PMN-MDSCs differentiation induced by decidual microenvironment has not been fully understood. Here we performed whole genome expression profile of 3 decidual PMN-MDSCs and autologous neutrophils from normal early pregnancy. Total RNA were extracted. The arrays were scanned by the Agilent Scanner G2505C. There were differences of gene expression pattern between decidual PMN-MDSCs and autologous neutrophils in early normal pregnancy. Total RNA of 3 decidual PMN-MDSC and autologous neutrophils from normal early pregnancy. were analyzed and compared in this study.
