Genomic profiles for human peripheral blood T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, monocytes, and polymorphonuclear cells-GSE72642

To demonstrate the potential use of such cell subtype-specific genomic expression data, a number of the major genes previously reported to be regulated in ischemic stroke, migraine, and Tourette syndrome are shown to be associated with distinct cell populations in blood.

This study includes data from major blood cell types from normal individuals. These cell types include CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, CD19+ B cells, CD56+ natural killer cells, CD14+ monocytes and PMN (polymorphonuclear cells). The data were hybridized on 3 separate batches of gene chips.
