Bulk RNA sequencing of NCR- ILC3s from the murine spleen and the small intestine

Splenic and intestinal NCR- ILC3s have been shown to be phenotypically and functional different. The goal of this study is to compare transcriptional profiles of NCR- ILC3s isolated of the murine spleen (SP) and the small intestine (SI) by RNA seq technology. Cell suspension were generated from both organs and NCR- ILC3s (CD117+, Thy1.2+, eYFP+, lin- (CD3, CD8, CD11b, CD11c, CD19, B220, Gr-1, TCRß, TCR?d, TER-119, NK1.1, NKp46)) were sort purified. RNA was isolated and RNA sequencing was done using Ilumina Hiseq 2500 system and NuGEN Ovation RNA Seq System V2, with biological triplicates. We provide the first comparison of transcriptional profiles of intestinal and splenic NCR- ILC3s. Overall design: RNA sequencing of ILC3 was done using Ilumina Hiseq 2500 system and NuGEN Ovation RNA Seq System V2, with biological triplicates
