Project description:Elevated plasma homocysteine is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and stroke, however the etiology remains poorly understood. Elevated homocysteine is known to inhibit methyltransferases including DNA methyltransferases, but no methylome-wide analysis of elevated homocysteine has been reported. Peripheral blood genomic DNA methylation in 8 Singaporean-Chinese ischemic stroke patients (4 male, 4 female) with varying homocysteine titer and hypertensive status were profiled using methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) protein-enriched genome sequencing (MBD-seq) on Illumina Genome Analyzer IIx. A methylome wide screen was undertaken for gender, total plasma homocysteine, hypertension and age. The data show considerable variability within the small cohort, including at genes which are related to one carbon metabolism and cardiovascular disease. Peripheral blood genomic DNA methylation in 8 Singaporean-Chinese ischemic stroke patients (4 male, 4 female) was profiled using methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) protein-enriched genome sequencing (MBD-seq) on Illumina Genome Analyzer IIx. Methylation parrterns were correlated with homocysteine levels, lypertensive status, gender and age.
Project description:Whole exome sequencing of 5 MDS/MPN patients to identify the target of chromosome 22 acquired uniparental disomy (22aUPD). For samples E4051 and E6523, peripheral blood leucocytes (tumour) and cultured T-cells (germline) were prepared for exome sequencing using the Agilent SureSelect kit (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA) (Human All Exon 50 Mb) and then sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 (Illumina, Great Abington, UK) at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics, Oxford, UK. For samples ULSAM1182, ULSAM1242 and ULSAM1356, peripheral blood leukocyte DNA only were exome sequenced by SciLifeLab (Stockholm, Sweden).
Project description:Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed with peripheral blood cells before (Day 0, T0), during nivolumab treatment (Day 7, T1; Day 21, T2), and when plasma EBV turned negative (Day 76, T3) in 1 patient (patient 7). scRNA-seq libraries were generated following the recommended protocol of the 3’ scRNA-seq 10X genomics platform and using v2 chemistry, and sequenced data was collected by illumina NovaSeq 6000 sequencing.
Project description:Peripheral blood was collected from 3 patients in two types of tubes, EDTA and Streck. After removing plasma, DNA was extracted from the remaining blood and subjected to array profiling

Project description:Illumina MiSeq next generation sequencing chip was used to identify differentially expressed miRs by comparing peripheral blood mononuclear cell samples between OSA patients and healthy non-snorers.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling and semi-supervised classification of blood samples from a case-control study of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The Illumina Infinium 27k Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 27,000 CpGs in peripheral blood. Samples included peripheral blood samples from 92 incident cases of HNSCC and 92 control subjects.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of non-pathologic peripheral blood from subjects with no history of cancer. The Illumina Infinium 27k Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 27,000 CpGs in peripheral blood. Samples included 205 normal control peripheral blood samples.
Project description:This study aims to discover unknown LncRNAs associated with Coronary Artery Disease(CAD)in peripheral blood. Three pairs of clinical CAD group and control blood plasma samples were texted in this experiment by high-throughput sequencing methods. Cuffdiff software was used to get the expression profiles of LncRNAs, differentially expressed LncRNAs were identified based on fold change and p-value. Differently expressed genes in peripheral plasma and blood monocytes were verified by Q-PCR in large samples of clinical CAD group and controls. We find three LncRNAs uc003pxg.1, ENST00000565257, ENST00000568324 were up-regulated obviously in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of CAD patients and these outcomes were consistent with the sequencing results. The ideal LncRNAs were detected preliminarily. This founding lays the foundation for further research,and provides theoretical basis of LncRNA using for CAD early clinical screening.
