ABSTRACT: Based on the theory of constitution of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), healthy individuals can be grouped into distinctive types. the global gene expression signature for distinctive constitutions has not been sufficiently explored. Here we examined gene expression profiles from 32 Chinese Han individuals with Yang/Yin deficiency (n=12 each) and Balanced constitutions (n=8).
Project description:We compared standard human reference genome GRCh38 and de novo assembled reference genome HX1 in precision medicine applications for specific ethnics. In order to quantify the HX1 misassembled genes and HX1-specific contigs, we performed RNA-seq and RNC-seq on hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (MHCC97H, MHCCLM3 and MHCCLM6) which were derived from Chinese Han individuals. In which, RNC-seq datasets of MHCC97H and MHCCLM3 had been published. We found that a considerable fraction of HX1 misassembled genes was expressed in the Chinese Han samples. Furthermore, we found no HX1-specific contigs yielded more than 2.27 FPKM (minimun FPKM of 1 copy/cell transcript) in the Chinese Han sampels.
Project description:Using high-throughput antibody microarray, through cross-sectional sample detection and verification of samples that had undergone physical changes over time, it was found that people with balanced constitution and dampness constitution in Chinese medicine showed differences in serum protein expression. The differences were expressed as the level changes of 19 proteins such as Dectin-2, Siglec-7, AIF and TACI. The research results provided the basis for the scientific expression of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) constitution.

Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of blood samples from eight female identical twins of Han Chinese for forensic age prediction, age 21 to 32. The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 485,000 CpGs at a single-nucleotide resolution. Samples included 8 pairs of identical female twins of Han Chinese.
Project description:Elucidating the genetic basis underlying the variation in hepatic gene expression is of importance to understand disease etiology and drug metabolism variances. To date, no genome-wide eQTL analysis has been conducted in the Han Chinese, the largest ethnic group in the world. We performed a genome-wide eQTL mapping in a set of Han Chinese liver tissue (n=64).

Project description:The genes had different expression between healthy people and acute myocardial infarction.We aimed to identify the differentially expressed genes involved in acute myocardial infarction in Northeast Chinese Han people. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression to identify the differentially gene between the patients with acute myocardial infarction and healthy people in Northeast Chinese Han people

Project description:Investigate gene expression profiles of Liuwei Dihuang Pill treatment postmenopausal osteoporosis with kidney Yin deficiency in peripheral blood Liuwei Dihuang Pill (LDP), a classic Chinese medicinal formula, has been used to treat PMO with kidney YIN deficiency for three months. Whole human genome oligo microarray were applied to explore the differentially expressed genes before and after LDP treatment.
