Project description:To identify the changes in gene expression profile caused by mechanical stress in the ligamentum flavum, we performed resection of the L3-4 supraspinal muscle and L2-3, L4-5 posterolateral fusion with instrumentation to concentrate the mechanical stress with segmental instability at the L3-4 level. The control group underwent only surgical exposure as a sham operation. Both groups of rabbits were sacrificed at 1 year after surgery and total RNA were extracted from ligamentum flavum.

Project description:This microarray serie represents the complete gene expression study of bacteriophage BFK 20 during the infection of its host Brevibacterium flavum CCM 251. Keywords: time course
Project description:Purpose:The goals of this study are to MS (mechanical stress) how to change the cellular pathway of hLFSCs (human ligament flavum stem cells). Methods: Extract hLFSCs from the ligament flavum of patients.Treat the cells with and without (in control)MS.Total RNA was extracted from cells with Tripure Isolation Reagent.Subsequently, RNA was purified through rRNA depletion and then subjected to cDNA synthesis and RNA amplification. Next, random hexamer primer cDNA libraries were evaluated using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and sequenced on Illumina Hiseq 4000 sequencing platform (Illumina, San Diego, California, USA) following the manufacturer’s instructions for paired-end 150 bp reads (Lifegenes, Shanghai, China).
