Project description:Solar radiation is one of the biggest threats to the skin, eliciting a specific protective cellular response. To descipt the underlying mechanisms, we have chosen to study in vivo, epidermis gene expression of surface solar radiation (SSR)-irradiated skin using whole genome microarray (Agilent 44K).
Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common bacterium in the terminal plumbing system of buildings and it is from this niche that a substantial fraction of infections are acquired. To better understand P. aeruginosa biology in this environment, we examined the transcriptomes in tap water and pond water.
Project description:In the present study, the eggs of Chinese pond turtles (Mauremys reevesii) were incubated at three temperatures (26℃, 29℃ and 32℃). During the thermosensitive period (TSP) of incubation, the adrenal-kidney-gonad (AKG) complexes were sampled, and a comprehensive investigation for miRNAs was performed using next-generation small RNA sequencing.
