Project description:This program addresses the gene signature associated with brain (cortex) in the tMCAO rat model for stroke. The tMCAO stroke model profiling data was analyzed by identifying genes that were up- and down-regulated at selected p value and fold change in brain cortex of the Sprague Dawley rats following middle cerebral artery occlusion compared to the sham-operated controls.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of miRNAs from rat brain tissues comparing controls (Sham) with ischemic rats (tMCAO) and neuroprotected rats (RLIP) Internal normalization: ischemic core vs. periischemic and ANOVA comparison across three experimental conditions: Sham, tMCAO and RLIP
Project description:To investigate the potential involvement of circRNA in ischemic pathophysiology, we performed a circRNA microarray in an established transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) mouse model of stroke. We evaluated the expression of 1797 circRNAs in adult mice brain after tMCAO. In our study, 5 of the 1178 circRNAs analyzed in the circRNA array were up-regulated significantly, ≥1.5-fold, in ischemic cortex at 12 hours of reperfusion after MCAO compared with their levels in sham group.
Project description:In order to establish a rat embryonic stem cell transcriptome, mRNA from rESC cell line DAc8, the first male germline competent rat ESC line to be described and the first to be used to generate a knockout rat model was characterized using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis.
Project description:We report the application of Illumina paired-end RNA-seq approach for transcriptome of brain tissue in mice. By removing sequence-dependent bias and amplification noise using UMI-tools. The mapped reads of each sample were assembled using StringTie. After the final transcriptome was generated, StringTie and edgeR was used to estimate the expression levels of all transcripts. By obtaining a total of million paired-end reads of sequence from cerebral cortex tissue, we generated transcriptome profiles of mouse ischemic cortex in sham, 24 h after focal ischemia, 28 d after focal ischemia, with or without neuron-specific knockdown of TIPARP, respectively. We found 2017 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between Sham+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con and tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con group, and 516 DEGs between tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con and tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-TIPARP group at 24 h after stroke. In addition, we found 487 DEGs between Sham+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con and tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con group, and 192 DEGs between tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con and tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-TIPARP group at 28 d after stroke. This study provides a detailed analysis of the underlying mechanisms of neuron-specific knockdown of TIPARP in neuronal injury and long-term effect, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology.

Project description:To detect mRNAs in ischemic stroke animals we dissected contralateral (CL) and peri-ischemic (PI) cortex of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAo) mice wild-type and ciRS-7 KO We performed differentially expression analysis of RNA-seq of wild-type and ciRS-7 KO tMCAo ischemic mice
