Project description:Spatially resolved gene expression was prepard by dissociated hman prostate tissue to single cells, and collected & prepped for RNA-seq using the Visium Spatial Gene Expression kit. 5000 cells were collected and sequenced at a depth of 50k cells/gene on a 2X150nt lane in a NovaSeq 6000. SpaceRanger alignment was performed to produce the RAW files
Project description:Substance use disorders (SUDs) are associated with disruptions in sleep and circadian rhythms that persist during abstinence and may contribute to relapse risk. Repeated use of substances such as psychostimulants and opioids may lead to significant alterations in molecular rhythms in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), a brain region central to reward and motivation. Previous studies have identified rhythm alterations in the transcriptome of the NAc and other brain regions following the administration of psychostimulants or opioids. However, little is known about the impact of substance use on the diurnal rhythms of the proteome in the NAc. We used liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry-based (LC-MS/MS) quantitative proteomics, along with a data-independent acquisition (DIA) analysis pipeline, to investigate the effects of cocaine or morphine administration on diurnal rhythms of proteome in the mouse NAc. Overall, our data reveals cocaine and morphine differentially alters diurnal rhythms of the proteome in the NAc, with largely independent differentially expressed proteins dependent on time-of-day. Pathways enriched from cocaine altered protein rhythms were primarily associated with glucocorticoid signaling and metabolism, whereas morphine was associated with neuroinflammation. Collectively, these findings are the first to characterize the diurnal regulation of the NAc proteome and demonstrate a novel relationship between phase-dependent regulation of protein expression and the differential effects of cocaine and morphine on the NAc proteome.
Project description:Using integrated genomics we identify a role for CLEC12A in antibacterial autophagy. Clec12a-/- mice are more susceptible to bacterial infection and CLEC12A deficient cells exhibit impaired antibacterial autophagy. We used transcriptional profilinf to understand the role of CLEC12A in the response to Salmonella and Listeria. Bone marrow-derived macrophages from WT or Clec12a-/- mice were infected with Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium or Listeria monocytogenes. Cells were harvested at 0,3,6, and 24hours post-infection for RNA analysis. Please note that single-end sequencing was performed but two files: R1 files that contained the sample barcodes (19 or 17bp reads) and R2 files that contained the single-end-sequenced 46bp cDNA reads were generated. Since the barcode info is mostly redundant, only R2 reads were submitted (described in 'raw_file_readme.txt').
Project description:Animal studies have linked disturbed adipose tissue clock gene rhythms to the pathophysiology of the metabolic syndrome. However, data on molecular clock rhythms in human patients are limited. Therefore, in a standardized real life setting, we compared diurnal gene expression profiles in subcutaneous adipose tissue between obese patients with type 2 diabetes and age-matched healthy lean control subjects, using RNA sequencing. In patients, 1.8% (303 genes) of expressed genes showed significant diurnal rhythms, compared to 8.4% (1421 genes) in healthy controls. In patients, the core clock genes showed reduced amplitude oscillations. Enrichment analysis revealed a loss of rhythm in canonical metabolic pathways including AMPK signaling and cAMP mediated signaling in patients. In conclusion, we provide the first transcriptomics atlas of human adipose tissue diurnal rhythms, and show evidence of decreased diurnal clock and metabolic gene expression rhythms in subcutaneous adipose tissue of obese patients with type 2 diabetes.
Project description:Circadian rhythms are internal biological rhythms driving temporal tissue-specific, metabolic programs. Loss of the circadian transcription factor BMAL1 in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus reveals its importance in metabolic rhythms, but its functions in individual PVN cells are poorly understood. Here, loss of BMAL1 in the PVN results in arrhythmicity of processes controlling energy balance and alters peripheral diurnal gene expression. BMAL1 chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) and single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) reveal its temporal regulation of target genes, including oxytocin (OXT), and restoring circulating OXT peaks in BMAL1-PVN knockout (KO) mice rescues absent activity rhythms. While glutamatergic neurons undergo day/night changes in expression of genes involved in cell morphogenesis, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes show gene expression changes in cytoskeletal organization and oxidative phosphorylation. Collectively, our findings show diurnal gene regulation in neuronal and non-neuronal PVN cells and that BMAL1 contributes to diurnal OXT secretion, which is important for systemic diurnal rhythms.
Project description:Observational, Multicenter, Post-market, Minimal risk, Prospective data collection of PillCam SB3 videos (including PillCam reports) and raw data files and optional collection of Eneteroscopy reports
Project description:Background: Plant diurnal rhythms are vital environmental adaptations to coordinate internal physiological responses to alternating day-night cycles. A comprehensive view of diurnal biology has been lacking for maize (Zea mays), a major world crop. Methodology: A photosynthetic tissue, the leaf, and a non-photosynthetic tissue, the developing ear, were sampled under natural field conditions. Genome-wide transcript profiling was conducted on a high-density 105K Agilent microarray to investigate diurnal rhythms.
