Project description:Researchers have induced an experimental model of multiple sclerosis [experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE)] in C57BL/6 mice to test the neuro-therapeutic effect of Compound Edaravone (CEDA, Jiangsu Simcere Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Nanjing, China) during the disease peak and investigate its possible mechanisms
Project description:Purpose: we used transcriptional profiling to identify differentially expressed genes in Col-0 and OE-SAUR41 seedlings Methods: Total RNA of 5-day-old Arabidopsis roots and the shoot parts were send to Vazyme BIotech Co., Ltd (Nanjing, China) to carry out library construction, Illumina HiSeq sequencing, and bioinformatical analysis. Each sample generated 4 Gb of clean data and contained three biological replicates.

Project description:To understand the mechanisms of NASH, we detected mRNA level in human NASH (n=5) and normal tissue (n=5) by RNA-Seq. The normal tissues were collected from the patients who received hepatic haemangioma surgery, and the steatotic liver samples were collected from the eligible patients who received bariatric surgery underwent liver biopsy or surgical resection at Nanjing Drum Hospital (Nanjing,China). This RNA-Seq might help us to find the important target genes and signaling pathway during NASH.

Project description:The differential expression profile of lncRNAs and mRNAs in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in high-incidence areas of China was constructed and co-expression correlation analysis was performed. The expression profile of lncRNAs in ESCC tissues was significantly different from that in adjacent normal tissues. Co-expression analysis revealed that lncRNA may be involved in the occurrence and development of esophageal cancer, thus providing a new basis for the diagnosis and treatment of esophageal cancer.

Project description:Shigui Ruan. Modeling the transmission dynamics and control of rabies in China. Mathematical Biosciences 286 (2017).
Human rabies was first recorded in ancient China in about 556 BC and is still one of the major public-health problems in China. From 1950 to 2015, 130,494 human rabies cases were reported in Mainland China with an average of 1977 cases per year. It is estimated that 95% of these human rabies cases are due to dog bites. The purpose of this article is to provide a review about the models, results, and simulations that we have obtained recently on studying the transmission of rabies in China. We first construct a basic susceptible, exposed, infectious, and recovered (SEIR) type model for the spread of rabies virus among dogs and from dogs to humans and use the model to simulate the human rabies data in China from 1996 to 2010. Then we modify the basic model by including both domestic and stray dogs and apply the model to simulate the human rabies data from Guangdong Province, China. To study the seasonality of rabies, in Section 4 we further propose a SEIR model with periodic transmission rates and employ the model to simulate the monthly data of human rabies cases reported by the Chinese Ministry of Health from January 2004 to December 2010. To understand the spatial spread of rabies, in Section 5 we add diffusion to the dog population in the basic SEIR model to obtain a reaction-diffusion equation model and determine the minimum wave speed connecting the disease-free equilibrium to the endemic equilibrium. Finally, in order to investigate how the movement of dogs affects the geographically inter-provincial spread of rabies in Mainland China, in Section 6 we propose a multi-patch model to describe the transmission dynamics of rabies between dogs and humans and use the two-patch submodel to investigate the rabies virus clades lineages and to simulate the human rabies data from Guizhou and Guangxi, Hebei and Fujian, and Sichuan and Shaanxi, respectively. Some discussions are provided in Section 7.
Project description:To investigate the effect of adipose tissue-specific overexpression of adrenomedullin 2 on the regulation of adipocyte function, the transgenic mouse line with adipocyte-specific overexpression of the ADM2 gene (aADM2-tg mice) was generated on a C57BL/6J background with the human ADM2 gene driven by the adiponectin (Adipoq) gene promoter (H11-Adipoq-hADM2-Wpre-PolyA mice, Strain NO. T059304). The mice were purchased from GemPharmatech (Nanjing, China). We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seg of visceral adipose tissue from aADM2-Tg and WT group.
