Title |
Hydroxychloroquine inhibits responses to group A streptococcus in peripheral blood mononuclear cells |
Organism |
Homo sapiens |
Experiment type |
Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
|
Summary |
Immune responses to group A streptococcus in humans can lead to the development of acute rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease. Immune pathways that are activated by group A streptococcus are potential targets for inhibiting autoimmune responses to group A streptococcus. This experiment tests the impact of the drug hydroxychloroquine on immune responses to group A streptococcus in peripheral blood mononuclear cells

|
Overall design |
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from three healthy participants were stimulated with rheumatogenic, heat-killed group A streptococcus for 24 hours, MOI 10. The effect of hydroxychloroquine (20 µM) (HCQ) was measured, both alone and in combination with group A streptococcus (GAS).
