BWH has a rich legacy of excellence and has been consistently recognized as one of America’s best hospitals by US News and World Report. GENERAL SUMMARY/ OVERVIEW STATEMENT: Cysteinyl leukotrienes (cys-LTs) are important proinflammatory lipid mediators released in asthma exacerbations. Drugs that prevent cys-LT generation or that block their receptor binding are used in the treatment of asthma and other allergic diseases. Our laboratory studies cys-LTs and their receptors in mouse models of asthma and pulmonary fibrosis. Current work in the lab is focused on the biology of C-type lectin receptors that trigger cys-LT generation in response to allergens, on identifying novel cys-LT receptors, and on understanding how cys-LT receptor function is regulated. Working independently with limited supervision from the Principal Investigator and other members of the Research Staff, and in accordance with established hospital policies and procedures, the TRAII will be able to execute experiments on bone marrow-derived dendritic cells and mast cells using established protocols as well as modify existing protocols and participate in developing new protocols. The TRAII will calculate, transcribe, and analyze data and will be responsible for training new staff. PRINCIPAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: 1. Evaluate the role of Dectin-2 in the generation of inflammatory mediators. This involves culture of mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs), transfection with lentiviral knockdown constructs, and stimulation of BMDCs with allergens. This includes the performance and evaluation of varied protocols for successful lentiviral infection, knockdown, and selection. 2. Evaluate ligands for lectin receptors by transfection of murine bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) with lectin receptors and stimulation with allergens or partially purified ligands for allergens. 3. Participate in in vivo experiments including performing bronchoalveolar lavage and cytospin, lung harvest, obtaining sera and measurement of immunoglobulins, culture of lymph node cells, and assessment of cytokines from lymph node cultures. 4.
