Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE24811: Time Series of Mouse skeletal muscle cell differentiation GSE24852: ChIP-Seq of MyoD, Myf5, Snai1, HDAC1, HDAC2, E47 and empty vector controls in mouse skeletal myoblasts or myotubes GSE38236: RNA-Seq of si-Snai1, si-Snai2, si-Snai1/2 and si-Scrambled treated myoblasts Refer to individual Series
Project description:Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) arise from serotonin-producing enterochromaffin cells. SI-NETs are often well-differentiated tumors and most patients have regional or distant metastases at initial presentation. MicroRNAs (miRs) are post-transcriptional regulators which are important in diverse biological processes and can function as tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes. This study aims to identify an exclusive SI-NETs miR profile that may have a critical role in development, diagnosis, prognosis and progression of these malignancies.
Project description:Pantoea sp. YR343, isolated from the Populus deltoides rhizosphere, is a robust plant root colonizer that produces indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Genomic and metabolomic analyses predicted that Pantoea sp. YR343 synthesizes IAA primarily using the indole-3-pyruvate pathway. Pantoea sp. YR343 proteomes showed upregulation of IpdC for growth in the presence of tryptophan or IAA versus controls.
Project description:Si has a wide range of effects in plant growth. One of these effects is the Si mediated formation of Casparian bands (CB), and thereby a reduced radial oxygen loss (ROL). The GeneChip provided evidence for involved genes in plant Si reaction. The given GeneChip-data revealed and influence of Si in the uptake of Fe. Additionally several genes involved in CB formation were found regulated through Si.
Project description:Purpose: This study assessed putative sex differences in miRNA expression in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST)—a sexually dimorphic brain region implicated in anxiety—of adult male and female rats that had been exposed throughout adolescence to social isolation (SI) stress. Methods: Male and female Sprague-Dawley rats underwent SI during adolescence or remained grouped housed (GH) till adulthood. Small RNA sequencing was performed on tissue extracted from the anterodorsal BNST. Results: SI compared to GH induced more anxiogenic-like effects in females compared to males and sex-dependent changes in miRNA expression in the BNST. Conclusions: The current study shows that housing conditions (either SI or GH) during adolescence regulates miRNA expression in a sex-specific manner in the sexually dimorphic area of the adBNST
Project description:The experiment aims to identify miRNAs that are regulated in response to TRAIL R1 si-RNA and TRAIL R2 si-RNA. The overall aim of the study was to identify mechanisms by which TRAIL death receptors may contribute to malignancy via inhibition of let-7 maturation.
