Project description:HUVECs transfected with siRNA targeting Neuropilin 1(NRP1) (si-NRP1) or a control non-targeting sequence (si-control) and exposed to unidirectional shear stress (20dyns/cm2), oscillatory flow (5dyn/cm2) or kept in absence of flow.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling in HACAT cells using a whole human genome array; HACAT cells treated with si RNA against Keap 1 or a scrambled si RNA sequence (Scram) vs HACAT cells mock transfected with lipofectamine (reference control) Experiment Overall Design: 2 biological replicates, 2 technical (dye swap) replicates per treatment.
Project description:Purpose: to find the potential down-stream target gene of circFAM120A Methods: mRNA profiles of decidualized human endometrial stromal cells (hESCs) after down-regulated FAM120A and control using siRNA were generated by NGS and compared by bioinformatics analysis Results: we sequenced 26414 mRNAs in hESCs between the si-NC and si-circFAM120A groups and identified 242 differentially expressed mRNAs, between which 161 were downregulated and 81 were up-regulated in si-circFAM120A group Conclusions: Our study represents the detailed analysis of decidualized hESCs transcriptomes between si-NC and si-circFAM120A groups.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of TNF-α treated HUVECs comparing cells transfected microRNA negative control with cells transfected with miR-181b.
Project description:Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of cellular pathways. The goals of this study are to compare NGS-derived retinal transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) to microarray and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT–PCR) methods and to evaluate protocols for optimal high-throughput data analysis Methods: mRNA profiles of si-Contol treated M010817 and siSMAD7 treated M010817 human melanoma cell line were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 2500. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level with two methods: Burrows–Wheeler Aligner (BWA) followed by ANOVA (ANOVA) and TopHat followed by Cufflinks. qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green assays Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of si-Contol treated M010817 and siSMAD7 treated M010817 human melanoma cell line transcriptomes, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide a framework for comparative investigations of expression profiles. Our results show that NGS offers a comprehensive and more accurate quantitative and qualitative evaluation of mRNA content within a cell or tissue. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would expedite genetic network analyses and permit the dissection of complex biologic functions.
Project description:To examine the role of WTAP in splicing regulation, we performed high-throughput mRNA sequencing (RNA-seq) on RNA isolated from control, WTAP or Virilizer siRNA-treated HUVECs, yielding 12 million uniquely mapped 75nt pair-end tags from each sample. MapSplice software was used for differential expression and differences in transcript splice junctions . mRNA profiles of control, WTAP or Virilizer siRNA-treated HUVECs were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina GAII.
