Project description:The purpose of this study is to survey a sample of adults who have recently made a decision about treatment of high cholesterol or high blood pressure or a decision about screening for colorectal cancer, breast cancer, or prostate cancer. The main goal is to gather evidence of the validity and reliability of the Shared Decision Making Process scale. Secondary goal is to gather evidence on the quality of decisions for these common medical situations.

Project description:Here we assess the reliability of human cortical spheroid differentiation cultured in xeno-free, feeder-free conditions. We find high reliability in differentiation across multiple hiPSC lines as well as across experiments, and we anticipate that this directed differentiation approach will be useful for large scale generation of brain-region specific spheroids and disease modeling.

Project description:Recently, in studies examining fibroblasts obtained from the tissues of one set of monozygotic twins (i.e. fetuses derived from the same egg) discordant for trisomy 21 (Down syndrome; DS), Letourneau et al. reported the presence of a defined pattern of dysregulation within specific genomic domains they referred to as Gene Expression Dysregulated Domains (GEDDs). GEDDs were described as alternating segments of increased or decreased gene expression affecting all chromosomes. Strikingly, GEDDs in fibroblasts were largely conserved in induced pluripotent cells (iPSCs) generated from the twin’s fibroblasts as well as in fibroblasts from the Ts65Dn mouse model of DS. Our recent analysis failed to find GEDDs. We reexamined human iPSCs RNAseq data from Letourneau et al., and data from this same research group published earlier examining iPSCs from the same monozygotic twins. In addition, an independent analysis of RNAseq data from Ts65Dn fibroblasts also failed to confirm presence of GEDDs. Our analysis questions the validity of GEDDs in DS.

Project description:Studying the causes and correlates of natural variation in gene expression in healthy populations assumes that individual differences in gene expression can be reliably and stably assessed across time. However, this is yet to be established. We examined 4-hour test-retest reliability and 10 month test-retest stability of individual differences in gene expression in 10 12-year-old children.

However, this is yet to be established. We examined 4-hour test-retest reliability and 10 month test-retest stability of individual differences in gene expression in 10 12-year-old children. Blood was collected on four occasions: 10am and 2pm on day one and 10 months later at 10am and 2pm. Total RNA was hybridised to Affymetrix-U133 plus 2.0 arrays.

Project description:Aggression among group housed male mice continues to challenge laboratory animal researchers because mitigation strategies are generally applied at the cage level without a good understanding of how it affects the dominance hierarchy. Aggression is typically displayed by the dominant mouse, targeting lower ranking subordinates, thus strategies may be more successful if applied specifically to the dominant mouse. Unfortunately, dominance rank is often not assessed because of time intensive observations or tests. Several dominance measures have been developed, but none directly compared to home cage behavior in standard housing. This study assessed the convergent validity of three dominance measures (urinary darcin, tube test score, preputial gland to body length ratio) with wound severity and rankings based on home cage behavior, using factor analysis. Discriminant validity with open field measures was assessed to determine if tube test scores are independent from anxiety. Cages were equally split between SJL and albino C57BL/6 strains and group sizes of 3 or 5 (N=24). During the first week, home cage behavior was observed, and the dominance measures were recorded over the second week. After controlling for strain and group size, darcin and preputial ratio had strong loadings on the same factor as home cage ranking and were significant predictors of home cage ranking showing strong convergent validity. Tube test scores were not significantly impacted by open field data, showing discriminant validity. Social network analysis was also done to reveal that despotic power structures were prevalent, aggressors were typically more active and rested away from cage mates, and the amount of social investigation and aggression performed by an individual were highly correlated. Data from this study show that darcin and preputial ratio are representative of home cage aggression and provide further insight on individual behavior patterns in group housed male mice.

Project description:We present SIGNAL-seq (Split-pool Indexing siGNalling AnaLysis by sequencing): a multiplexed split-pool combinatorial barcoding method that simultaneously measures RNA and post-translational modifications (PTMs) in fixed single cells from 3D models. SIGNAL-seq PTM measurements are equivalent to mass cytometry and RNA gene detection is analogous to split-pool barcoding scRNA-seq. By measuring both mRNA ligand-receptor pairs and PTMs in single cells, SIGNAL-seq can simultaneously un- cover inter- and intra-cellular regulation of tumour microenvironment plasticity. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Project description:Novel approaches were used to generate the DNA sequence information for the rhesus GeneChip (2005). The purpose of this experiment was to test its reliability and validity of the rhesus macaque GeneChip across different tissues and centers. Keywords: reliability To test the reliability of the rhesus GeneChip across different centers, RNA was isolated from five sources: cerebral cortex, pancreas, thymus, testis, and an immortalized fibroblast cell line. Aliquots of this RNA were sent to each of three centers: Yerkes National Primate Research Center, Oregon National Primate Research Center and the University of Nebraska Medical Center. Each center labeled the samples and hybridized them to two rhesus macaque GeneChips.
