Project description:The most common ladybird beetle, Coccinella septempunctata L., is an excellent predator of crop pests such as aphids and white flies, and it shows a wide range of adaptability, a large appetite and a high reproductive ability. In this study, we collected female adults in three different states, i.e., non-diapause, diapause and diapause termination, for transcriptome sequencing.
Project description:Analysis of whole mouse brain following peripheral, cutaneous immune stimulation with Aldara cream or aquaeous control cream. Results provide insight into the central response to peripheral inflammation Microarrays were used to investigate the global gene expression of mouse brains following peripheral, cutaneous application of Aldara cream or control cream C57BL/6 mice were treated with 80mg topical Aldara cream or aquaeous control cream every 24 hours for 5 consecutive days. 24 hours following the final application, brains were removed and RNA was extracted using RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). 5 brains from each group were analysed using full genome Affymetrix GeneChip array
