(Submitter supplied) The role of the lineage-determining transcription factor IRF8 in microglia remains unelucidated. We report the genome-wide, transcriptome profiles of wild-type, IRF8KO, IRF8cKO, Batf3KO, 5xFAD, and 5xFAD/IRF8KO microglia. Deep-sequencing and subsequent differential analysis revealed the impacts of IRF8 on microglia-specific transcription programs, such as cell identity. Sall1 and Batf3 genes were identified as a downstream transcription factor of IRF8, and Batf3 dependent genes showed correlation with IRF8-dependent genes in microglia.
