Summary (written by the submitters)
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) and downstream transcription factor STAT5 are important for maintaining regulatory T (Treg) cell homeostasis and function. Tregs can respond to low levels of IL-2, but the mechanisms by which STAT5 is activated during partial IL-2 deficiency remain uncertain. We identified the serine-threonine kinase Mst1 as a signal-dependent amplifier of IL-2−STAT5 activity in Tregs.

Tregs had high Mst1 and Mst2 (Mst1−Mst2) activity that was crucial to prevent tumor resistance and autoimmunity. Mechanistically, Mst1−Mst2 sensed IL-2 signals to promote the STAT5 activation necessary for Treg cell homeostasis and lineage stability, and maintain the highly suppressive phophorylated-STAT5+ Treg cell subpopulation. Unbiased quantitative proteomics revealed an association of Mst1 with the cytoskeletal DOCK8−LRCHs module that shaped activity Rho-family GTPase Rac activity, which in turn mediated STAT5 activation in Tregs. Collectively, IL-2−STAT5 signaling critically depends upon Mst1−Mst2 functions to maintain a stable Treg cell pool and immune tolerance. We used microarrays to compare the global transcription profiles of WT and Mst1/Mst2-null Treg cell populations

Direct links to NCBI, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need.

All supplementary files ↗
3 · The original raw files

Whole study · RAW.tar

Everything the authors deposited as one archive (GSE120711_RAW.tar), including the raw array or instrument files. Can be large; the picker in step 2 takes just the samples you need.

What the files usually look like: For arrays the series matrix is normally the normalised expression table you want; the raw array files (CEL and similar) are in the RAW.tar.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA494226. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
