Project description:The goal of the study was to investigate the effect of inducible ZXDA expression in HCT116 cell line. HCT116 clones expressing inducible versions of human ZXDA gene (2 clones wild-type; 2 clones ERP386-388AAA) were incubated with or without doxycycline.
Project description:Goal: In the last years, many research efforts were addressed to uncover how grapevine cultivars respond to environment, nevertheless little is known on the molecular processes underlying the interplay between clones (vegetatively propagated lines of selected mother plants) of the same cultivar and environment. The goal of this study was to explore the whole complexity of the clone x environment (C x E) interaction through the identification of molecular changes controlled by clone, vineyard, phenological phase or a combination of them. Methods: We analyzed the transcriptome of berries collected over the ripening period from three Vitis vinifera cv Nebbiolo clones (CVT 71, CVT 423, CVT 185) grown in different vineyards, in two vegetative seasons. A multidisciplinary approach was adopted by implementing RNA-seq data with: i) expression analysis of candidate genes; ii) quantification of abscisic acid, flavonoids and stilbenoids; iii) agronomical parameters; and iv) climatic data. Results: Transcripts involved in sugar signalling, anthocyanin biosynthesis and transport were differently modulated among diverse clones, accordingly to berry agronomical features. Conversely, genes linked to the production of secondary metabolites enhancing defence responses, such as stilbene synthase genes, were significantly affected by vineyard location, consistently with stilbenoid accumulation patterns. Conclusion: The collected results attest that clone-specific metabolic responses do play a key role in shaping agronomic performances of a grape variety in different environments, thus providing valuable indications for orienting viticultural practices.
Project description:Mouse dorsal aorta from E9.5 mouse embryos (C57BL6) was grown as an explant culture as described elsewhere (De Angelis et al., 1999). After 5 days the explant was dissociated into a single cell suspension, and plated at limiting dilution on a feeder layer of Mitomycin C-treated primary embryonic mouse fibroblasts, in 96 multiwell plates in complete medium, RPMI 20% Fetal Calf Serum. After 1 week, mesangioblast clones appeared approximately 2-4% of the wells. When the clones had grown to approximately 103 cells they were passed on gelatin-coated dishes, and further expanded. Clones D16 and D351 were used for microarray analysis. Keywords: other
Project description:Gene expression between DLD1 and DLD1 derived oxaliplatin resistant clones (DLD/OHP1, DLD/OHP4, and DLD/OHP5) was assessed Gene expression between HCT116 and HCT116 derived oxaliplatin resistant clones (HCT/OHP1, HCT/OHP3, and HCT/OHP5) was assessed
Project description:We report that metastasis in an autochthonous mouse model of sarcoma is driven by a single clone in the primary tumor. We performed RNA-seq comparing the gene expression profiles of the metastatic clones (MC) to matched non-metastatic clones (non-MC) from the same tumor for multiple tumors. RNA from lung metastases (Lung-Met) of matched tumors are sequenced as well.
Project description:We performed single-cell transcriptome analysis (using MARS-seq and 10x) of four human cell lines, as well as bulk tracscriptome analysis of hundreds of single-cell clones, derived from the same cells population. Additionally, we performed methylation analysis of HCT116 single cells (using whole-genome PBAT) and of the same clones whose transcriptome was analysed (using capture-PBAT). We also analyse longitudinal single cell transcriptomes of six selected HCT116 clones grown for up to 148 days in our lab, and analysed cells and clones of HCT116 cells harbouring knock-out mutations in DNMT1 and DNMT3B (DKO).
