Project description:We describe a case of Clostridium intestinale bacteremia in a previously healthy adolescent female presenting with fever and abdominal pain. The bacterium was definitively identified via 16S rRNA gene sequencing. This is the first report, in the world literature, of human infection caused by this microorganism.
Project description:Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Clostridium intestinale strain URNW, which can convert biomass to useful products such as biofuels (hydrogen or ethanol) and other soluble end products.
Project description:To investigate the role of AEBP1 involved in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), we inhibited AEBP1 expression by specific siRNA in human HSC line LX-2 cells. Total RNA was loaded for bulk RNA sequencing.
Project description:In this study, high-throughput RNA sequencing technology combined with bioinformatics analysis was used to compare the differentially expressed mRNA of TGF-β1-treated LX-2 cells with that of the control group in hopes of gaining a deeper understanding of the biological function and signaling pathway changes in the activation process of LX-2 cells, as well as to identify potential key genes regulating HSC activation.
