Project description:We have done next generation sequencing of optically thin, exponentialy growing Phaeodactylum tricornutum cultures grown with and without nitrogen source to improve our undestanding of the pathways regulation under conditions that promote lipid accumulation (N-starvation).
Project description:Early chemotherapy for advanced/metastatic non-castration resistant prostate cancer (PCa) may improve overall patient survival. We studied the safety, tolerability and early efficacy of up-front docetaxel chemotherapy and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) versus ADT alone for patients with newly-diagnosed advanced/metastatic PCa. As proof of concept, we undertook in vivo gene expression profiling by next generation RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Tumour biposies from 6 patients were taken before and after treatment with combined ADT and docetaxcel for 6 weeks
Project description:We have done next generation sequencing of optically thin, exponentialy growing Phaeodactylum tricornutum cultures grown with and without nitrogen source to improve our undestanding of the pathways regulation under conditions that promote lipid accumulation (N-starvation). 3 biologically independent exponentially growing culture of Phaeodactylum tricornutum were pelleted and washed several times with N-free media. Each culture was devided to 2 replicates with initial cell concentration of 2X105 cells/mL, one with NaNO3 as nitrogen source and the other without any nitrogen source. The cuture were bubbled foro 48 hours and sampled for transcriptome together with other physiological parameters and lipid analysis.
Project description:Development of an alternative method to ChIP for the identification of DNA bound by transcriptional complexes assayed using next-generation sequencing Next-generation sequencing data from sites identified by different Notch complexes using SpDamID-seq and compared against FAIRE and ChIP data
