Project description:Metabolites (aqueous & organic) were extracted from mouse tissues and tissues' contents (SI duodenum, SI jejunum, SI ileum, cecum, large intestine, small intestine, contents, cecum contents, large intestine content, heart, Liver, quad ) and were run by LC-MS, C8 in positive mode.
Project description:We apply scRNA-seq to identify shared patterns of gene expression related to fatty acid oxidation, across stem cells from the proximal small intestine, distal small intestine, and colon

Project description:Exposure to high-dose radiation causes life-threatening serious intestinal damage. Histological analysis is the most accurate method for judging the extent of intestinal damage after death. However, it is difficult to predict the extent of intestinal damage to body samples. Here we focused on extracellular microRNAs (miRNAs) released from cells and investigated miRNA species that increased or decreased in serum and feces using a radiation-induced intestinal injury mouse model. A peak of small RNA of 25–200 nucleotides was detected in mouse serum and feces 72 h after radiation exposure, and miRNA presence in serum and feces was inferred. MiRNAs expressed in the small intestine and were increased by more than 2.0-fold in serum or feces following a 10 Gy radiation exposure were detected by microarray analysis and were 4 in serum and 19 in feces. In this study, miR-375-3p, detected in serum and feces, was identified as the strongest candidate for a high-dose radiation biomarker in serum and/or feces using a radiation-induced intestinal injury model.
Project description:To understand the gene response during the glucose to acetate diauxic transition, we grew E. coli in minimal media with acetate and a small amount of glucose. Cells were collected and RNA was purified at different time points during the growth transition, including pre-shift (growth on glucose), 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 60 minutes and 120 minutes after glucose run-out, and steady state growth on acetate (post-shift).
Project description:Dietary methionine restriction represses growth and improves therapeutic responses in several pre-clinical settings. However, how this dietary intervention impacts cancer progression in the context of the immune system is unknown. Here we analyzed the CD45+ immune cells from the small intestine of control (CTRL) diet or methionine-restricted (MR) diet fed tumor-free C57BL/6J donor mice and tumor-bearing Apc <min+/-> recipient mice transplanated with feces from these diet-fed tumor-free C57BL/6J mice by scRNA-seq. Our analysis indicate that fecal microbes from methionine-restricted tumor-free C57BL/6J mice are sufficient to represss T cell activation in the small intestine of Apc <min+/-> mice.
