Project description:A small-scale whole genome microarray study of gene expression in human native nasal epithelial cells from F508del-CFTR homozygous CF patients and non-CF controls. We used the custom designed Affymetrix HsAirwaya520108F Arrays to compare gene expression in 5 CF and 5 non CF nasal epithelial cell samples.
Project description:A small-scale whole genome microarray study of gene expression in human native nasal epithelial cells from F508del-CFTR homozygous CF patients and non-CF controls. We used the custom designed Affymetrix HsAirwaya520108F Arrays to compare gene expression in 5 CF and 5 non CF nasal epithelial cell samples. We analysed a total of 10 samples (5 CF and 5 non CF). The CF group contained 2 males and 3 females, with an average age of 14 years and an average of 6% inflammatory cells per sample, and the non CF group contained 3 males and 2 females with an average age of 14.8 years and an average of 4.7% inflammatory cells.
Project description:We did bulk RNA sequencing in newborn cystic fibrosis (CF) and non-CF pig kidney. We compared kidney gene expression profiling between non-CF and CF pigs. RNA sequencing results showed that there is not significant difference between non-CF and CF in terms of gene expression, suggesting that CFTR knockout does not affect kidney development in newborn pigs.
