Project description:The cellular response to astrovirus infection is not well defined. We used single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to determine cellular response to astrovirus early or late in infection.
Project description:Ribosome profiling (RiboSeq) is a high-throughput sequencing technique for globally mapping the positions of translating ribosomes on the transcriptome. We infected Caco2 cells with human astrovirus 1 (HAstV1). Cells were harvested at 12 hpi and either flash frozen with no pre-treatment (NT), or pre-treated with lactimidomycin for 30 minutes followed by flash freezing (LTM). These samples where then used for ribosome profiling.
Project description:We deep sequenced and analyzed miRNAs using deep RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) in cage rearing and traditional breeding duck's duodenum sample of Nonghu NO.2 duck. 21 differentially expressed miRNA were identified in the duodenum. 6 miRNAs were upregulated and 15 were downregulated in the cage rearing duck's duodenum of the Nonghu NO.2 duck compared to their expression in the control group. These findings provided insights into the expression profiles of miRNAs in duck duodenum, and deepened our understanding of miRNAs in oxidative injury of duck.
Project description:Purpose:To understand the transcriptome regulator of duck spleen infected with duck enteritis virus (DEV).Methods:50-day-old ducks were inoculated with 100 titer (The TCID50 of DEV was 10-9/0.1mL) and 10-2 titer two different viral titer of DEV in leg muscle for different durations (66 h, 90 h and 114 h) and seronegative control (0 h) were analyzed using next-generation RNA sequencing.Furthermore, the data were validated using quantitative real-time PCR.Results:There were 534, 685 and 580 genes differentially expressed in 100 titer, moreover, 511, 485 and 531 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained from 10-2 titer for 66 h, 90 h and 114 h, respectively. These genes were mainly involved in functional categories including immune response, extracellular space, heparin binding, oxygen transport, extracellular region, cellular response to interleukin-4, MHC class II protein complex, antigen processing and presentation of peptide or polysaccharide antigen via MHC class II, and pathways such as ribosome, ECM-receptor interaction, cell adhesion molecules, JAk-STAT signaling pathway, PPAR signaling pathway, neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, phagosome.Conclusions: Different titers of DEV infection can stimulate different biological processes and signaling pathways in the spleen, and regulated the complex biological processes, metabolic and signaling pathways in the process of DEV infection.This transcriptome analysis of duck spleen infected with DEV in different time points is reported for the first time, it laid the foundation for further understanding of interactions between DEV and duck spleen tissue, molecular mechanisms of duck defend against DEV infection, and screening key functional genes.
Project description:The reads of duck transcripome was mapped to the duck genome and help to identify the UTR regions of predicted genes. The expression level difference between the tissue spleen and liver will help us to detect the immune-related and fatty acid metabolism related genes.
