Total RNA sequencing data of murine bone marrow derived macrophages from WT and Treml4 deficient mice

Treml4 has been recently characterized as a protein-coding gene of the Trem family. It has been shown that its expression is controlled by two cis- eQTL's and that the minor allele a these locuses confers up to 6.5 fold increased relative risk of human coronary arterial calcification (CAC). Since Treml4 expression is confined to the myeloid compartment, we aimed to, first, determined if Treml4 expression correlates to inflammatory activation and, second, investigate how inflammatory gene expression is affected by Treml4 expression status utlizing a global knockdown mouse for Treml4. WT and Treml4-/- BMDM were differentiated for 7 days and then treated with LPS or vehicle (PBS) for 8 or 12 hours. Total RNA was extracted from 2 biological replicates for each group and
