Project description:One of the central issues in evolutionary developmental biology is how we can formulate the relationships between evolutionary and developmental processes. Two major models have been proposed: the 'funnel-like' model, in which the earliest embryo shows the most conserved morphological pattern, followed by diversifying later stages, and the 'hourglass' model, in which constraints are imposed to conserve organogenesis stages, which is called the phylotypic period. Here we perform a quantitative comparative transcriptome analysis of several model vertebrate embryos and show that the pharyngula stage is most conserved, whereas earlier and later stages are rather divergent. These results allow us to predict approximate developmental timetables between different species, and indicate that pharyngula embryos have the most conserved gene expression profiles, which may be the source of the basic body plan of vertebrates.

This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE28388: [E-MTAB-366] Transcription profiling by array of chicken embryos at 15 different stages GSE28389: [E-MTAB-368] Transcription profiling by array of mouse embryos at 8 different stages GSE28390: [E-MTAB-369] Transcription profiling by array of Xenopus laevis embryos at 15 different stages Refer to individual Series
Project description:mRNA profiling of the Richter Syndrome cell line U-RT1. The expression profiles were compared to published expression profiles of different diffuse large B cell lymphoma cell lines (Array Express E MTAB-973 and GEO Accession Number GSM466597) to determine whether there are differences in expression that indicate differences on molecular grounds.
Project description:Transcription profiling of chicken development The experiment were perfomed as a part of our Vertebrate Evo-Devo project. The aim of the project is to compare transcription profiles of normal (unmanipulated, wild-type, whole embryo) vertebrate embryos. Total RNA was collected from wild type G.gallus whole embryos at 15 different stages (Stages:HH1,2,4,6,8,9,11,14,16,19,24,27,32,34,38), and hybridized to the Affymetrix Chicken Genome Array. All the stages contains data from two biological replications. Each staged-samples consists of pooled total RNA from several whole embryos.
Project description:The experiment were perfomed as a part of our Vertebrate Evo-Devo project. The aim of the project is to compare transcription profiles of normal (unmanipulated, wild-type, whole embryo) vertebrate embryos. Total RNA was collected from wild type C57BL/6 mice, whole embryos at 8 different stages (Stages:E7.5, E8.5, E9.5, E10.5, E12.5, E14.5, E16.5, E18.5), and hybridized to A-AFFY-45 Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array. All the stages contains data from 2 to 3 biological replications. Each staged-samples consists of pooled total RNA from several whole embryos.
Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to define transcriptome (RNA-seq) of mouse preimplantation embryos at different stages of development under a range of different environmental conditions. Methods: Mouse preimplantation embro transcriptional profiles were generated using embryos at several different developmental stages using Smart-seq2. Results: RNA-seq analysis finds that there is a highly dynamic pattern of gene expression during the preimplantation period. The sensitiivty to nutrient conditions varies markedly at different stages of development, with 2C embryos more sensitive to pyruvate omission than later stage embryos. Conclusions: Our study represents a comprehensive analysis of the mouse preimplantation development transcriptome, and how pyruvate provision impacts different developmental stages.
