Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder, accounting for up to 75 % of all dementia cases. Although the basis of AD etiology remains unknown, oxidative stress constitutes a major driver given its intimate association, specially at prodromic stages of the disease. In this line, Ubiquinol, the reduced form of coenzyme Q10, is a well-known neuroprotective antioxidant and has demonstrated significant effects in oxidative responses of β-Amyloid aggregation, internalization, and apoptosis-induced neurodegeneration. However, full extent of Ubiquinol effects in the context of AD is not yet known in detail. In this study, we designed a new methodology based on MALDI MSI for evaluating the peptide profile of the 3xTg-AD mice model fed a Ubiquinol-supplemented diet. By adopting functional analysis tools, we observed differential functional profile in hippocampus and cortex levels after 4- or 10-m o supplementation. Therefore, we also identified ACAD9, XPO1 and EIF3A as potential protein references for the diagnosis of AD at early/late stages.

Project description:Our aim with this work is to identify and quantify the miRNA profile of the human follicular fluid using a miRNA microarray approach in young and advanced-aged women and in follicles with different oocyte quality. Data collected in this study would be utilized in a future as a marker to predict the oocyte quality. This observational prospective study includes women enrolled in the assisted reproduction program of Hospital Universitari i Politècnic la Fe (Valencia, Spain). The study was accepted by IRB of this Hospital and all couples received informed consent of our study and assisted technique according to service protocols. The study was divided in two stages: Stage 1: Patients (n=21) who had follicles yielding oocytes with different degree of maturation were included (n=21). The follicular fluid samples from 21 patients were pooled in different groups. Expression of miRNA in the follicular fluids was compared within each patient according the degree of oocyte maturation. Stage 2: Patients were allocated into two groups according to the patient's age: advanced age (AA; >36 years old) and young age (YA; <36 years old). Follicular fluids from follicles containing MII oocytes were pooled and miRNA expression was subsequently compared. Please note that the MII samples with underscore (such as MII1 vs MII_1) indicate different pools so they are not the same sample, but we maintained the number because they correspond to paired samples pools for GV and MI.

Project description:Two well-characterized blood dendritic cell populations, conventional (cDC) and plasmacytoid (pDC), exhibit multiple phenotypic, migratory and functional differences that suggest specialized and may be complementary and coordinated functions. To study this possible coordination, cDCs and pDCs from healthy blood donors were sorted and cDCs were stimulated either with LPS or R848 whereas pDCs were CFSE-labelled and maintained in IL3. Then, CFSE labelled-pDCs and stimulated-cDCs were mixed and co-cultured. Following this "conditioning", CFSE-pDCs were sorted again and further analyzed. Conditioned pDCs showed moderate phenotypic maturation and acquired allostimulatory capacity. Microarray and RT-PCR analyses showed the induction of different genes including chemokines and proinflammatory cytokines that were dependent on the stimulation received from the "conditioner" cDC. Additionally, the differential pattern of conditioning was confirmed by protein secretion analyses with the production of specific chemokines and cytokines by conditioned pDCs. Importantly, conditioning of pDCs by activated cDCs required cell-cell contact.

Project description:Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading causes of blindness in diabetic patients. Emerging evidence suggests that retinal neurodegeneration is an early event in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy, but the underlying causes of neuronal loss are unknown. To unravel potential mechanisms underlying early retinal neurodegeneration in diabetic retinopathy, a gene expression profiling study was undertaken to compare the gene expression in retinas of 8-week db/db diabetic mice with that of lean non-diabetic littermates. Retinas were obtained from 8-week db/db diabetic mice and age-matched lean non-diabetic controls. Total RNA was extracted and processed for being hybridized onto affymetrix DNA microarrays.

Project description:The tergal gland is a structure exclusive of adult male cockroaches that produces substances attractive to the female and facilitates mating. It is formed de novo in tergites 7 and 8 during the transition from the last nymphal instar to the adult. Thus, the tergal gland can afford a suitable case study to investigate the molecular basis of a morphogenetic process occurring during metamorphosis. Using Blattella germanica as model, we constructed transcriptomes from male tergites 7-8 in non-metamorphosing specimens, and from the same tergites in metamorphosing specimens. We performed a de novo assembly all available transcriptomes to construct a reference transcriptome and we identified transcripts by homology. Finally we mapped all reads into the reference transcriptome in order to perform analysis of differentially expressed genes and a GO-enrichment test. A total of 5,622 contigs appeared to be overrepresented in the transcriptome of metamorphosing specimens with respect to those specimens that did not metamorphose. Among these genes, there were six GO-terms with a p-value lower than 0.05 and among them GO: 0003676 (“nucleic acid binding”) was especially interesting since it included transcription factors (TFs). Examination of TF-Pfam-motifs revealed that the transcriptome of metamorphosing specimens contains the highest diversity of these motifs, with 29 different types (seven of them exclusively expressed in this stage) compared with that of non-metamorphosing specimens, which contained 24 motif types. Transcriptome comparisons suggest that TFs are important drivers of the process of tergal gland formation during metamorphosis. We sequenced the mRNA from the tergites 7-8 (where the tergal gland appears in the male adult individuals) with Roche 454 GS Junior System, in 4 different developmental stages; in nymph 5 during the ecdysone peak when flat tergites are being produced; in nymph 6 day 1 when the adult program its being initiated; nymph 6 day 1 treated with Juvenil Hormone that inhibits the adult program; and in nymph 6 during the ecdysone peak when tergal gland its being formed. Different transcription factors were found to play a crucial role in TG morphogenesis.

Project description:Due to the common presence of a non-virion NV gene absent from other fish rhabdoviruses, NV-coding rhabdoviruses, such as the viral haemorrhagic septicemia (VHSV), were placed into a new Novirhabdovirus genus. Because conflicting results do exist on the importance of NV for VHSV trout pathogenicity and the NV function is still unclear, the effects of intraperitoneal injection of recombinant NV protein were studied by using home-designed immune-related microarrays from rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss. The results were compared with parallel experiments using bacterial flagellins, a well know mammalian agonist of toll receptors (tlr5) with adjuvant activity recently described also in fish Four experimental groups were formed with four biological replicates each, 16 samples in total. First one was injected with NV recombinant protein in PBS, second one was a control group injected with PBS, the third group was injected with bacterial flagellins in PBS and the fourth group was injected with polihistidine peptide as a reference group because the recombinant proteins have a polihistidine tail. There is a technical replicate within each array.

Project description:Biomarker discovery in breast cancer (BC) is a clinical need for therapeutics and non-invasive diagnostics. In a single study, we provide a comparative differential proteomic profile of four invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis and drug resistance. Exosome proteome profile reflects their different BC cell origin suggesting potential indicators of BC subtype. Further, our pathway inference analysis reveals a differential role of exosomes in BC signalling pathways in recipient cells, according to their protein cargo and cell origin. Our results may significantly contribute to further studies for the design of BC biomarker predictor to stratify BC patients and the development of novel therapeutic strategies.BC cell lines and their derived- exosomes, representative of the most relevant BC subtypes in clinic. Differentially-expressed proteins, in both cells and exosomes, include indicators of

Project description:During reproductive life, the human endometrium undergoes around 480 cycles of growth, breakdown and regeneration should pregnancy not be achieved. This outstanding regenerative capacity is the basis for women’s cycling and its dysfunction may be involved in the etiology of pathological disorders. Therefore, the human endometrial tissue must rely on a remarkable endometrial somatic stem cells (SSC) population. Here we explore the hypothesis that human endometrial side population (SP) cells correspond to somatic stem cells. We isolated, identified and characterized the SP corresponding to the stromal and epithelial compartments using endometrial SP genes signature, immunophenotyping and characteristic telomerase pattern. We analyzed the clonogenic activity of SP cells under hypoxic conditions and the differentiation capacity in vitro to adipogenic and osteogenic lineages. Finally, we demonstrated the functional capability of endometrial SP to develop human endometrium after subcutaneous injection in NOD-SCID mice. Briefly, SP cells of human endometrium from epithelial and stromal compartments display genotypic, phenotypic and functional features of SSC. Human tissue collection: Human endometrial biopsies were taken using a Pipelle catheter under sterile conditions (from 18 to 48 years) throughout the menstrual cycle. Epithelial and stromal separation: Epithelial and stromal fractions were isolated using an established protocol with modifications. Briefly, samples were carefully dissected and minced into 1-2mm fragments, and enzymatically digested in DMEM containing 10 mg/ml collagenase type IA. Stromal cells (single cells or small aggregates) and epithelial glands were separated on a size basis using gravity sedimentation and membrane filtration. Cell suspensions were treated with erythrocyte lysis solution and evaluation of cell viability was performed with Propidium Iodide (PI; 5 μg/ml). Hoechst 33342 labeling: Cells isolated from the endometrial epithelial and stromal fractions were resuspended in DMEM prewarmed at 37ºC and supplemented with 2% FBS and 10mM HEPES. The cell suspension was labeled in the same media with 5 μg/ml of Hoechst 33342 dye (Ho-33342), either alone or in combination with 100 μM verapamil (Vp), in a water bath at 37ºC for 90-120 minutes. Then, cells were centrifuged for 6 minutes at 4ºC, and were resuspended in cold HBSS supplemented with 2%FBS and 10mM HEPES. PI permits to exclude dead cells prior to the flow cytometric analysis and sorting. Isolation of human endometrial SP cells: Cells were analyzed and sorted by a MoFlo® jet-in-air high speed sorter. Excitation was performed with a water cooled Enterprise II ion laser which operated at the 351 nm and 488 nm wavelengths, and worked at 30 mW. Hoechst 33342 blue and red fluorescences were detected through 405/30 and 670/20 nm band-pass filters respectively, by measuring the signals on a linear scale. PI fluorescence was detected through a band-pass filter of 613/20 on a logarithmic scale. The gates for cell sorting were defined to collect live cells with a low Hoechst 33342 fluorescence (SP fraction), as well as live cells with a high Hoechst 33342 fluorescence (NSP fraction). Microarrays experiments: Endometrial tissue consisted in a total of 8 endometrial biopsies (epithelial (n=8) and stromal (n=8) endometrial cell suspensions, epithelial SP fraction (n=8) and stromal SP fractions (n=8) separately) which were pooled in pairs at the RNA levels. Four microarrays were analyzed per group.

Project description:Compared to what is known in model species, reproductive biology in citrus is still poorly understood. Although in recent years several efforts have been made to study pollen-pistil interaction and self-incompatibility, little information is available about the molecular mechanisms regulating these processes. We performed microarray analysis for the identification of candidate genes involved in pollen-pistil interaction and self-incompatibility in clementine (Citrus clementina Hort. ex Tan.). The analysis was performed comparing the transcriptome of laser-microdissected stylar canal cells isolated from two clementine genotypes differing for self-incompatibility response (‘Comune’, self-incompatible; and ‘Monreal’, a self compatible mutation of ‘Comune’). Styles with stigmas, collected 24 hours after self pollination, were immediately snap-frozen in OCT embedding medium (Sakura Finetek, Zoeterwoude, Netherlands) in Peel-A-Way plastic embedding molds (Polysciences, Polysciences, Warrington, PA, USA). Transversal sections 10 µm thick at the upper part of the style were cut with a Leica CM1900 cryostat (Leica Microsystems, Germany) at -20°C. A Leica AS Laser Microdissection system (Leica Microsystems) was used for the isolation of stylar canals from transversal sections. Canals from the stigma were discarded to avoid contamination with pollen or pollen tubes. Three biological replicates were prepared for each genotype. Each biological replicate consisted of bulks of about 200 microdissected areas (composed of an average of 50 cells) coming from two different molds
