Project description:In order to identify genes which contribute on the uptake of glucose into cells of the mutant R. eutropha G+1, a genome wide transcription analyses was done. Transcripts of strain H16 and the glucose-utilizing mutant R. eutropha G+1, cultivated in mineral salts medium supplemented with either fructose or glucose were compared.
Project description:This experiment was investigating how gut commensal bacteria and intestinal inflammation affect miRNA expression. We analyzed miRNA expression of spleen and intestine from specific pathogen free (SPF) B6 mice, germ-free (GF) B6 mice, and IL-10 knockout mice which have severe colitis by microarray. Thus we have total 6 samples: GF spleen; GF intestines; SPF spleen; SPF intestine; IL-10 KO spleen and IL-10 KO intestine. We directly isolated RNA from whole spleens or intestines without any treatments, and then did microarray analysis.
Project description:We performed a gene expression analysis of C. albicans SC5314 planktonic cells exposed to the antifungal peptide ApoEdpL-W. Exponentially-growing C. albicans SC5314 cells in SD at 30°C medium were exposed to 2.5 µM ApoEdpL-W and samples were collected after 10 and 30 min. for transcript profiling
Project description:Finding the methylation state of DNA promoters in various cell lines and tissues by mDIP - methylated DNA precipitation with antibodies against methylated cytosine.
Project description:2 million E. histolytica HM1:IMSS was treated with 0.5% DMSO for 3 h and 2 million E. histolytica HM1:IMSS was treated with 1 M-5M auranofin for 3 h
Project description:In this study, full human genome promoter microarrays and expression microarrays were used to explore the roles of histone modifications (H3K9Ac and H3K9Me2) upon the induction of MSC osteogenic differentiation.
Project description:Thermal history plays a role in the response of corals to subsequent heat stress. Prior heat stress can have a profound impact on later thermal tolerance, but the mechanism for this plasticity is not clear. The understanding of gene expression changes behind physiological acclimatization is critical in forecasts of coral health in impending climate change scenarios. Acropora millepora fragments were preconditioned to sublethal bleaching threshold stress for a period of 10 days; this prestress conferred bleaching resistance in subsequent thermal challenge, in which non-preconditioned coral bleached. Using microarrays, we analyze the transcriptomes of the coral host, comparing the bleaching-resistant preconditioned treatment to non-preconditioned and control treatments. This experiment compared host gene expression of Acropora millepora across control, non-preconditioned, and preconditioned treatments. Fragments were sampled prior to preconditioning (Day 4), following 10 days of thermal preconditioning (Day 20), and after two (Day 23), four (Day 25), and eight days (Day 29) of 31M-BM-0C thermal challenge. The analysis implements 45 arrays, representing 5 sampling points of three treatments (n=3).
