Project description:We used AML12 cells exposured with pulsed extremely low frequency weak magnetic fields for 4 msec at increasing frequency of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 Hz for 1 sec each. The 1-to-8 Hz pulses over 8 sec were repeated indefinitely. Peak magnetic intensity was 100 mG. AML12 cells were incubated for 1 h under extremely low frequency weak magnetic fields.
Project description:Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have the ability to differentiate into cells of the three germ layers, and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) maintains the pluripotency and promotes the proliferation of ESCs. In the absence of LIF, ESCs spontaneously differentiate and form three-dimensional aggregates known as embryoid bodies (EBs). The differentiation of EBs mimics the process of embryonic development, that is, the differentiation of cells into the three embryonic germ layers (endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm), some of which differentiate into beating cardiomyocytes. Static magnetic fields have diverse effects on organisms, studies on the regulation of the differentiation of ESCs to cardiomyocytes by static magnetic fields are not sufficient. To better understand transcriptional landscape and signal transductions, we performed RNA-seq analysis of EBs cultured in two different conditions: conventional incubator, static magnetic field incubator.
Project description:Using diamagnetic levitation, we have exposed A. thaliana in vitro callus cultures to five environments with different levels of effective gravity (from levitation i.e. simulated mg* to 2g*) and magnetic fields (10.1 to 16.5 Tesla) and we have compared the results with those of similar experiments done in a Random Position Machine (simulated micro g) and a Large Diameter Centrifuge (2g) free of high magnetic fields. Microarray analysis indicates that there are changes in overall gene expression of the cultured cells exposed to these unusual environments but also that gravitational and magnetic field produce synergic variations in the steady state of the transcriptional profile of A. thaliana. Significant changes in the expression of structural, abiotic stress and secondary metabolism genes were observed into the magnet field. These results confirm that the strong magnetic field, both at micro g* or 2g*, has a significant effect on the expression of these genes but subtle gravitational effects are still observable. These subtle responses to microgravity environments are opposite to the ones observed in a hypergravity one.
Project description:we studied the functional composition of a packed-bed nitrifying bioreactor inoculated with a co-culture of Nitrosomonas europaea (ATCC 25978) and Nitrobacter winogradskyi (ATCC 25391) after 840 days of operation.
