GSE83697: Tbet regulates the transcriptional programming of Be1 B cells.

Bulk RNA sequencing

To investigate the role of Tbet in B cell differentiation to "effector-like" antibody secreting cells (ASC's) we utilized an ex vivo culture system to differentiate B cells(Be1 cells) in the presence of Th1 polarized T cells. To determine the role of Tbet in Be1 cell differentiation we performed RNA-seq on Wt Be1 and Tbet negative (TbetNeg) Be1 cells.Collectively, these data show that T-bet serves as master regulator for the Be1 cell fate andis required for induction of genes required for ASC differentiation in Be1 cells.
