Project description:Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a genetic disease of the kidney characterized by the gradual replacement of normal kidney parenchyma by fluid-filled cysts and fibrotic tissue. Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is caused by mutations in the PKD1 or PKD2 gene. Here we present an RNASeq experiment designed to investigate the effect of a kidney specific and Tamoxifen inducible knockout of the Pkd1 gene in mice. 7 mice were grouped into two groups, 4 Tamoxifen treated mice which develop an adult onset Polycystic Kidney Disease phenotype and 3 untreated mice which have WT phenotype.

Project description:MicroRNAs are important negative regulators of protein coding gene expression, and have been studied intensively over the last few years. To this purpose, different measurement platforms to determine their RNA abundance levels in biological samples have been developed. In this study, we have systematically compared 12 commercially available microRNA expression platforms by measuring an identical set of 20 standardized positive and negative control samples, including human universal reference RNA, human brain RNA and titrations thereof, human serum samples, and synthetic spikes from homologous microRNA family members. We developed novel quality metrics in order to objectively assess platform performance of very different technologies such as small RNA sequencing, RT-qPCR and (microarray) hybridization. We assessed reproducibility, sensitivity, quantitative performance, and specificity. The results indicate that each method has its strengths and weaknesses, which helps guiding informed selection of a quantitative microRNA gene expression platform in function of particular study goals.

Project description:In order to determine whether dis-regulation of a genetic pathway could explain the increased apoptosis of parp-2-/- double positive thymocytes, the gene expression profiles in double positive thymocytes derived from wild-type and parp-2-/- mice were analysed using Affymetrix oligonucleotide chips (mouse genome 430 2.0).

Project description:To characterize the milk phospholipids (PLs) profile using phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance (31P-NMR) and to investigate the effect of elevated milk docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) levels on PLs profiles in Japanese mothers.MethodsMilk samples from eligible patients with high and low DHA from a former cross-sectional study (n = 20; n = 10 for each group) were included. Fifteen milk PLs were analyzed using 31P-NMR, and the profiles were compared group-wise using Mann-Whitney U-test. The P value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant.ResultsThe median DHA content in milk was 1.13% and 0.29% for the high and low milk DHA groups, respectively. Twelve PLs, excluding lysophosphatidylserine, cardiolipin, and phosphatidylglycerol, were detected in all participants with 100% positive results. The median concentrations and proportions of total PLs, sphingophospholipids, and glycerophospholipids were comparable between groups. The proportions of choline-containing glycerophospholipid were significantly higher in the high milk DHA group than that in the low milk DHA group (24.09% [median, interquartile range: 23.08%-26.38%] and 21.41% [20.74%-22.84%], P = 0.019). Although the proportions of phosphatidylinositol were significantly lower in the high milk DHA group than that in the low milk DHA group (6.62% [5.75%-6.72%] versus 7.63% [7.11%-8.16%], P = 0.002), while that of phosphatidylcholine (21.90% [18.51%-23.22%] versus 19.78% [18.17%-20.26%], P = 0.059) and alkyl-acyl phosphatidylcholine (0.60% [0.40%-0.74%] versus 0.33% [0.14%-0.51%], P = 0.059) were higher in the former than that in the latter.ConclusionsOur results were comparable to that of the previous literature. Large variations in the milk DHA might affect the composition of choline-containing glycerophospholipids in Japanese mothers. However, possible confounders were not excluded in the study populations.

Project description:Asthma is a complex syndrome associated with episodic decompensations provoked by aeroaller-gen exposures. The underlying pathophysiological states driving exacerbations are latent in the resting state and do not adequately inform biomarker-driven therapy. A better understanding of the pathophysiological pathways driving allergic exacerbations is needed. We hypothesized that disease-associated pathways could be identified in humans by unbiased metabolomics of bron-choalveolar fluid (BALF) during the peak inflammatory response provoked by a bronchial aller-gen challenge. We analyzed BALF metabolites in samples from 12 volunteers who underwent segmental bronchial antigen provocation (SBP-Ag). Metabolites were quantified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) followed by pathway analysis and cor-relation with airway inflammation. SBP-Ag induced statistically significant changes in 549 fea-tures that mapped to 72 uniquely identified metabolites. From these features, two distinct induci-ble metabolic phenotypes were identified by the principal component analysis, partitioning around medoids (PAM) and k-means clustering. Ten index metabolites were identified that in-formed the presence of asthma-relevant pathways, including unsaturated fatty acid produc-tion/metabolism, mitochondrial beta oxidation of unsaturated fatty acid, and bile acid metabolism. Pathways were validated using proteomics in eosinophils. A segmental bronchial allergen chal-lenge induces distinct metabolic responses in humans, providing insight into pathogenic and pro-tective endotypes in allergic asthma.

Project description:Genome-wide identification of transcription factor (TF) binding sites in the genome of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. The ChIP-nexus method was used. TFs included were: Cbf11-TAP and Cbf12-TAP (and their DBM mutants with impaired DNA binding), TAP-Mga2, and Fkh2-TAP (as an irrelevant control TF). IPs from an untagged WT strain were also analyzed. Cbf11-related IPs were performed from exponential cultures, while Cbf12-related IPs were performed from stationary cultures. YES complex medium was used for all cultivations.

Project description:We have developed a strategy for the detailed structural characterization of complex proteoglycan-derived glycosaminoglycans. Chondroitin/dermatan sulfate isolated from rat INS-1 832/13 insulinoma cells known to produce primarily one proteoglycan was used to evaluate and demonstrate the efficacy of the strategy.

Project description:In order to identify how MnTE-2-PyP affects p300 association to chromatin genome-wide, we performed a p300 chromatin Immunoprecipitation assay followed by Next Generation Sequencing on PC3 cells treated with or without MnTE-2-PyP one hour post-irradiation (Figure 3A). Based on the called peaks near genes, we predicted that HIF-1βand CREB transcription factors were associating DNA less in the presence of MnTE-2-PyP. DNA was ChIP-Fixed from Pc3 cells treated with 20 Gy radiation and with and without T2E drug. There are 2 biological replicates of PC3 untreated cells and 3 biological replicates of PC3 cells treated with MnTE-2-PyP. There are two corresponding input samples for the biological replicates.

Project description:Naïve and activated T-cells has a different response to antigenic challenge. We examine whether a cytokine like IL-6 induces different responses through the Jak-STAT pathway to affect the functional characteristics of a given CD4 T‑cell subset. We isolated naïve and effector memory (Tem) CD4 T-cells to investigated STAT1 and STAT3 binding after 1-hour treatment with 20ng/ml IL-6 in the presence of anti-CD3/CD28.
