Expression data from CD4+ naïve T cells under Treg-inducing condition in the presence or absence of butyrate

Commensal bacteria shape the gut immune system. Colonization bacteria increase the frequency of regulatory T cells, however, the molecular mechanisms are not yet known. To reveal the mechanism, we isolated naïve CD4+ T cells from the spleen of C57BL/6 mice and cultured the cells under Treg-inducing condition culture in the presence or absence of butyrate, a metabolite produced by commensal bacteria. Naïve T cells were isolated from spleen and were cultured in the presence of IL-2, TGF-beta and in the presence or absene of Butyrate. RNA was extracted at Day 2.
