Project description:Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of white blood cells was conducted using the Illumina Infinium Human Methylation 850K Genechip. According to the internal exposure level of deoxynivalenol, 32 participants were divided into two groups (high exposure DON group and low exposure DON group). Samples included 16 peripheral blood samples from children with high DON exposure and 16 peripheral blood samples from children with low DON exposure.
Project description:Analysis of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) using RNA derived from freshly harvested peripheral blood CD4+ lymphocytes from 200 asthmatics collected in clinical settings. RNA was obtained from peripheral blood CD4+ lymphocytes at four study centers. Peripheral blood (17 cc) was collected into BD Vacutainer CPT tubes (BD Diagnostics, Franklin Lakes, New Jersey) and placed on ice. Samples were centrifuged within 1 hour of collection for 20 minutes at 1700RCF, followed by mononuclear cell layer isolation and suspension in 10 ml of PBS. We isolated CD4+ lymphocytes using anti-CD4+ microbeads by column separation (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA) using 20 µl anti-CD4+ Micro beads per 106 total cells

Project description:Transcriptome profiling was conducted on 2 replicate samples of total peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and isolated PBMC subsets.
Project description:This study is to compare the mRNA expression differences between atherosclerosis and non-atherosclerosis samples from female peripheral blood. The possible effects of races are also considered.
