ABSTRACT: Combinatory microarray and SuperSAGE analyses identify pairing-dependently transcribed genes in Schistosoma mansoni males, such as follistatin [Microarray]
Project description:Comparing the transcriptomes of pairing-experienced (EM) and pairing-unexperienced (UM) male Schistosoma mansoni (in biological triplicates) we detected 253 genes to be significantly differeantially (p < 1-10; log2ratios < -0.585 or > +0.585) transcribed. pairing-experienced (EM) and pairing-unexperienced (UM) male Schistosoma mansoni were compared by SuperSAGE (Matsumura et al., 2003; with minor changes: Molina et al., 2008), sequencing Illumina (Solexa)

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of S. mansoni pairing-experienced males (EM) vs. pairing unexperienced males (UM) Two conditions (EM vs. UM) with three biological samples of EM and in parallel other three biological samples of UM. For each sample (three EM and three UM) were performed four technical replicas.
Project description:Schistosoma mansoni is a dioecious species, that is, it has two differentiated sexes. Interestingly, this sexual species evolved from a hermaphrodite ancestor. Indeed, most Platyhelminthes are hermaphrodites. Here we characterize the microRNAs of S. mansoni and quantify their differential expression between males and females.
Project description:In the present study we compare the secretome from S. mansoni adult males and females using a label free quantitative proteomic approach

Indeed, most Platyhelminthes are hermaphrodites. Here we characterize the microRNAs of S. mansoni and quantify their differential expression between males and females. Mice were infected with Schistosoma mansoni 1-2 weeks prior to dissection. RNA from two independent samples were extracted and sequenced with Illumina MiSeq technology and AB SOLiD 4 technology. Reads were mapped to the reference genome and microRNA detected and analyzed.
