Project description:Transcriptional profiling of subventricular zone (SVZ) progenitors comparing control healthy mice to mice induced to develop an autoimmune demyelination (EAE model). Goal was to unveil genes involved in demyelination-induced reactivity of SVZ progenitors. Two-condition experiment, healthy vs. EAE derived SVZ progenitors. Biological replicates: 2 control replicates, 2 EAE replicates. SVZ progenitors were sorted in two cell populations: neuronal progenitors (PSA-NCAM magnetic sorting) and glial progenitors (NG2 magnetic sorting). Progenitors from healthy mice are reference samples.

Project description:To address the differential response of the CNS, proteomics was applied in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mice and cuprizone (CPZ) mice in two different CNS regions
Project description:The ubiquitin ligase Peli1 has previously been suggested as a potential treatment target in multiple sclerosis since the knock-out induced less activated microglia and less inflammation in the CNS of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice. In the present study the brain proteomes of Peli1 knock-out mice and wild-type mice were analyzed and compared before disease induction and after 10 and 20 days of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis using quantitative proteomics. The brain samples were analyzed using TMT labeling of small pools of samples and verified using label-free of individual mice.
Project description:Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS); its cause is unknown. To understand the pathogenesis of MS, researchers often use the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mouse model. Here, our aim was to build a proteome map of the biological changes that occur during MS at the major onset sites—the brain and the spinal cord. We performed quantitative proteome profiling in five specific brain regions and the spinal cord of EAE and healthy mice with high-resolution mass spectrometry based on tandem mass tags.
Project description:B10.PL mice with severe (stage 2.5-3) experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis were treated with placebo or 200 ng 1,25(OH)2D3. Six hours later, the spinal cords were harvested and mRNA was extracted for microarray analysis. Naive mice serve as controls. Individual samples were hybridized to individual microarrays.
