Project description:October 2010 surface seawater collected from Pacifica pier was incubated with 14 different substrates for 12 hours. Community RNA was extracted and hybridized to a Roche Nimblegen microarray and analyzed by NanoSIMS to obtain isotope ratio data for all probe spots.
Project description:Analysis of PRC2 and KMT2D-COMPASS binding sequences using CUT&RUN technique in non-convertible HMLER-C1 cells, convertible C2 epithelial cells, as well as C1 EED-KO epithelial and C1-KMT2D-KO epithelial cells.
Project description:There is evidence of pathophysiologic diversity in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), but data characterizing the molecular endotypes of CRSwNP and their association with treatment is lacking. The objective of this study was to identify gene signatures associated with CRSwNP endotypes, clinical features, and dupilumab treatment response. Two distinct transcriptional clusters (C1 and C2) were identified, both with elevated type 2 biomarkers. At baseline, C2 patients had higher mean Nasal Polyp Score and higher type 2 biomarker levels than C1 patients. At Week 24, significant improvements in clinical outcomes (dupilumab vs placebo) were observed in both clusters, although the magnitude of improvements was significantly greater in C2 than C1, and more C2 patients demonstrated clinically meaningful responses. Gene sets enrichment analyses supported the existence of two molecular endotypes: C2 was enriched in genes associated with type 2 inflammation (including periostin, cadherin-26, and type 2 cysteine protease inhibitors), while C1 was enriched in genes associated with T cell activation, interleukin-12, and interferon-γ production.
Project description:We report epigenetic changes in the chromatin accessibility landscape of retinal myeloid cells from mice preconditioned with 4xLPS injections persist after the initial inflammation has subsided. We compared the data of scATAC-seq performed on nuclei extracted from sorted CX3CR1+ retinal cells from mice 3 days after CNV induction, preconditioned with either PBS or 4xLPS 1 month before, or Naïve retinas without CNV induction, preconditioned with PBS. After quality control, filtering and dimension reduction, a two-dimensional UMAP was performed on the remaining 835, 821, and 588 cells in the PBS, 4xLPS, and Naive groups respectively. Unbiased clustering was applied using Leiden algorithm, which partitioned CX3CR1+ myeloid cells into 8 distinct clusters (C1–C8). Based on previously described cell-specific gene signatures, we identified microglia (clusters C1, C2 and C3), monocytes (clusters C4 and C5), and macrophages (cluster C6). Gene expression scores identified C4 as circulating monocytes and C5 as a mixture of classical and inflammatory monocytes. The three microglial populations (C1, C2, and C3), harbor the greatest epigenetic diversity following induction of CNV or preconditioning. GSEA analysis revealed that the C2 subpopulation was characterized by considerable enrichment in opened chromatin regions corresponding to genes coding for inflammation-related pathways. In contrast, the C1 subpopulation showed higher numbers of closed chromatin in genes coding for inflammatory processes. Moreover, when compared to the C1 and C2 subpopulations, C3 had open chromatin regions only in two gene sets coding for inflammation-related pathways, and three gene sets with closed chromatin regions. Together, these data demonstrate that the chromatin landscape of retina-resident microglia is impacted differently by both the prior systemic exposure to LPS and by CNV.

Project description:Interventions: capecitabine
Primary outcome(s): The correlation between the capecitabine dose and the C1 and C2 levels of 5-FU, unchanged capecitabine, 5’-DFCR, 5’-DFUR in the blood. C1=concentration an hour after administration of capecitabine C2=concentration two hours after administration of capecitabine.
Study Design: Single arm Non-randomized
Project description:Beijerinckiaceae bacterium RH AL1 was grown exponentially in with methanol (1% [v/v]) as carbon source and lanthanum (1µM) as necessary growth supplement. Harvested biomass was subjected to RNA extraction, mRNA-enrichment and Illumina sequencing library preparation for subsequent RNA-Seq analysis. The scope of this gene expression analysis was to validate the expression of genes linked to pathways that are involved in C1-metabolism.
Project description:We developed a MeS-like disease model using C57BL/6J mice chronically fed with high fat diet (HFD) that were inoculated with TRAMP-C1 prostate cancer (PCa) cells to investigate the interaction between white adipose tissue (WAT) and PCa cells through miRNAs, in MeS mice. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from co-culture medium between TRAMP-C1 cells with HFD-gonadal WAT (gWAT) versus TRAMP-C1 cells with CD-gWAT. For differential expression analysis we used the Rank Product Method.
