Project description:To comprehend the underlying mechanisms of NSC proliferation and differentiation, microRNA expression was investigated. Total RNA was extracted from NSCs, ESCs, and MEFs, and microRNA expression was examined using RT-PCR. This was accomplished utilizing the System Biosciences' Mouse miRNome Sanger miRVase microRNA Profiler Set.
Project description:We used high-throughput qRT-PCR analysis to obtain full genome qRT- PCR data for the Staphylococcus aureus strains USA300 (wild type) and TB15 (mutant). Both strains were collected during infection from 4 mouse organs ( skin, kidney, lung,liver) as well as from human neutrophil infection.
Project description:In this study, we investigated the transcriptome of Bifidobacterium bifidum PRL2010 during in vitro growth by micro array technology. When B. bifidum PRL2010 was grown in liquid broth, 425 of the 1644 PRL2010 genes represented on the array were expressed in at least one of the three investigated growth phases, i.e., lag-, exponential and stationary phase. These transcriptional analyses identified a core in vitro transcriptome encompassing 150 genes, which resulted expressed in all phases. A proportion of the latter genes were further investigated as potential reference genes by Quantitative Real Time PCR (qRT-PCR) assays. Their expression stability was evaluated under different growth conditions, encompassing cultivation on different carbon sources, exposure to environmental stresses (thermal, acidic and osmotic) and growth phases. Our analyses validated six reference genes suitable for normalizing mRNA expression levels in qRT-PCR experiments applied to bifidobacteria.
