Project description:To explore the effects of gut microbiota of young (8 weeks) or old mice (18～20 months) on stroke, feces of young (Y1-Y9) and old mice (O6-O16) were collected and analyzed by 16s rRNA sequencing. Then stroke model was established on young mouse receive feces from old mouse (DOT1-15) and young mouse receive feces from young mouse (DYT1-15). 16s rRNA sequencing were also performed for those young mice received feces from young and old mice.
Project description:Nitrate-reducing iron(II)-oxidizing bacteria are widespread in the environment contribute to nitrate removal and influence the fate of the greenhouse gases nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide. The autotrophic growth of nitrate-reducing iron(II)-oxidizing bacteria is rarely investigated and poorly understood. The most prominent model system for this type of studies is enrichment culture KS, which originates from a freshwater sediment in Bremen, Germany. To gain insights in the metabolism of nitrate reduction coupled to iron(II) oxidation under in the absence of organic carbon and oxygen limited conditions, we performed metagenomic, metatranscriptomic and metaproteomic analyses of culture KS. Raw sequencing data of 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, shotgun metagenomics (short reads: Illumina; long reads: Oxford Nanopore Technologies), metagenome assembly, raw sequencing data of shotgun metatranscriptomes (2 conditions, triplicates) can be found at SRA in https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/PRJNA682552. This dataset contains proteomics data for 2 conditions (heterotrophic and autotrophic growth conditions) in triplicates.
Project description:To investigate the TVA diet's effect on mouse gut microbiome, we fed C57/BL6 mice with TVA diet or CON diet for 18 days We then collected feces of the mice and performed 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequencing.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study was to characterize the kidney transcriptome of Mus musculus and Acomys cahirinus after unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) kidney injury. Methods: Kidney mRNA-seq profiles of 10 week old mouse and spiny mouse were generated at 2 day and 5 days after unilateral ureteral obstruction injury in triplicate, using Illumina NovaSeq 6000. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level with Salmon, edgeR and a limma-voom pipeline in R. Results: For both Mus musculus and Acomys cahirinus kidneys, we mapped about 50 million sequence reads per sample to the mouse transcriptome and identified 20580 transcripts in kidneys of Mus musculus and 54075 transcripts in the kidneys of Acomys cahirinus. Using 1.5 fold change and FDR < 0.05, number of transcripts that are significantly different between Mus musculus samples: 3915 between normal and day 2 after UUO, 5365 between normal and day 5 after UUO. For Acomys cahirinus: 1765 between normal and day 2 after UUO, 2499 between normal and day 5 after UUO. Conclusions: Our study demonstrate there were many conserved responses to kidney injury between M. musculus and A. cahirinus despite the divergent outcomes for kidney fibrosis.
