Project description:The rabbits ingest the mother's droppings at the nest. This behaviour contributes to the transmission of the maternal microbiota to its progeny, it is involved in the maturation of the digestive ecosystem of the rabbits and reduces mortality. In view of these observations, it is possible to assume that the digestive system is involved. To support this hypothesis, gene expression is measured using an expression chip. The aim is to detect over- or under-expressed genes under certain conditions and to link them in particular to immunity.
Project description:Evaluation of the transcriptomic profile of the rabbit embryo along the preimplantation period during in vivo development. Three embryonic stages were used: four cell embryos (H32 post-coïtum); morula (H58 pc) and blastocyst (H90 pc). Keywords: time course rabbit embryo

Project description:9 rabbit spleen label free proteomics studies.In order to study some drugs on animal innate immunity, we built rabbit models, using rabbit immune organs - spleen made mass spectrometry based label free proteomics studies. Finally, it is expected to find the target of the drug and the mechanism of action.
Project description:Groups of samples used in Microarray and comparative genomics-based identification of genes and gene regulatory regions of the mouse immune system profiles.
Project description:The rabbit retinal vein occlusion (RVO) model is one of the experimental systems that mimic retinal ischemic diseases. This model is widely used as an evaluation system for various surgical procedures. We focused on the gene expression profiles of the rabbit RVO model and considered about the validity as an ischemic model.
Project description:Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) belongs to the family Caliciviridae, genus Lagovirus and is used in Australia as a biocontrol tool to keep the population of european rabbits low. This virus has a positive-sense single-stranded RNA genome that encodes structural (capsid) and non-structural proteins. Due to the lack of an established cell culture system for this virus, some of the non-structural proteins are yet awaiting characterisation and their function is unknown. This work attempted to characterise the process of RHDV infection and identify pathways that alterate in RHDV-infected rabbit liver at the proteome level. Young rabbits were infected with RHDV2 (genotype GI.1bP-GI.2) and humanely killed 24 hours post-infection. 25% liver homogenates were prepared in RNAlater buffer and stored at -20C. Uninfected rabbit liver samples served as a control. Samples from three RHDV2-infected animals (K375, K376, K378) and three uninfected animals (K3, K14, K12) were used in this study.
