Project description:Transcription profiling of E. coli by exposure of VOCs- Bacillus VOCs vs control Experiments of two-conditions with 3 different time points, Exposure of Bacillus VOCs vs Control
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of C. elegans young adult worms cultured on non-pathogenic Bacillus subtilis strain 67 versus age-matched worms cultured on the control lab food E. coli OP50. The goal was to identify genes regulated in response to differences in diet, which potentially confer immunity to later exposures to pathogenic Bacillus thuringiensis DB27.

Project description:Global transcriptional profiling of Bacillus subtilis cells comparing fur mutant to mutants of the iron-sparing response: fur fsrA double mutant, fur fbpAB triple mutant, fur fbpC double mutant, and fur fbpABC quadruple mutant fur vs fur fsrA (fsrA), fur vs fur fbpAB (AB), fur vs fur fbpC (C), and fur vs fur fbpABC (ABC). Each experiemnt (fur vs mutant) was conducted three times using three independent total RNA preparations (2 independent experiement + 1 independent dye swap).
Project description:Methylation of DNA is one of the common epigenetic signaling tools that cells use to lock the expression of various genes. In this study, we examined the effects of VOCs exposure in humans on methylation using microarray analysis. We recruited participants who had short-term exposure, long-term exposure, or no exposure. We then analyzed changes in methylation in blood samples from these participants. We found that 1178 genes were hypermethylated and 402 genes were hypomethylated compared with the control group in time-dependent manner. Further research is required to determine the time-dependent effects of VOCs on epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Methylation of DNA in human blood samples (IRB #AS 14039) divided into three groups: control (unexposed workers; n = 12), short-term exposure (workers exposed to VOCs for less than 10 years; n = 12), and long-term exposure (workers exposed to VOCs for more than 10 years; n = 12) was experimented by methylation microarray analysis after exposure to VOCs
Project description:In this study, we examined the effects of VOCs exposure in humans on gene expression using microarray analysis. We recruited participants who had short-term exposure, long-term exposure, or no exposure. We then analyzed changes in gene expression in blood samples from these participants. A total of 866 genes were upregulated, while 366 genes were downregulated in the short-term exposure group. Similarly, in the long-term exposure group, a total of 852 and 480 genes were up- or downregulated, respectively. Hierarchical clustering analysis was used to divide the clustered genes into nine clusters to investigate the expression of variations in accordance with the exposure period. Further research is required to determine the time-dependent effects of VOCs on epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Gene expression of mRNA in human blood samples (IRB #AS 14039) divided into three groups: control (unexposed workers; n = 12), short-term exposure (workers exposed to VOCs for less than 10 years; n = 12), and long-term exposure (workers exposed to VOCs for more than 10 years; n = 12) was experimented by microarray analysis after exposure to VOCs
