Conclusions I GM-CSF and IL-4 regulate the expression of almost 900 genes during the differentiation of macrophages and DCs. Altogether 196 genes were differentially regulated in macrophages and DCs throughout the 7-day differentiation. Most of these genes code for factors involved in the signaling from cell surface to nucleus. Several novel genes with unknown molecular function were identified. These genes may cooperate with the previously known differentiation promoting factors and thus have an essential role in macrophage and DC differentiation process. Ingenuity Pathways Analysis revealed that canonical pathways of particular interest are differentially regulated in macrophages and DCs.

Conclusions II The depletion of any given component from the BCR signaling network resulted in significant alterations in phophorylation profiles of the other intermediates. This effect was not localized but extended over to intermediates that were not within the canonical signaling pathways to which each of the depleted molecules belonged. The depletion of individual nodes also reflected alterations in signal processing with corresponding alterations in the cellular phenotypic response as several tens of genes were either strongly induced or downregulated. The most significant gene regulatory network identified by IPA was a Myc-centric network with a proposed function in cell cycle regulation.
