Project description:The impact of intra-uterine growth retardation (IUGR) was analyzed on gene expression of the colonic epithelial cells from adults rats fed a standard or a high-fat diet. The hypothesis tested in this study was that IUGR induces sustainable effects on colonocyte transcriptome that may alter further nutritional adaptations at adulthood, especially to high-fat diet.

The hypothesis tested in this study was that IUGR induces sustainable effects on colonocyte transcriptome that may alter further nutritional adaptations at adulthood, especially to high-fat diet. Total RNA extracted from control (C) and IUGR (R) rats fed chow (Normal Diet, ND) or high-fat diet (HFD).
Project description:Male Sprague-Dawley rats were used to establish exhausted-exercise model by motorized rodent treadmill. Yu-Ping-Feng-San at doses of 2.18 g/kg was administrated by gavage before exercise training for 10 consecutive days. Quantitative proteomics was performed for assessing the related mechanism of Yu-Ping-Feng-San.
Project description:To investigate the molecular pathological mechanisms of irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) and elucidate the effects of acupuncture on IBS-D colonic mucosa protein abundance in rats, a label-free high-throughput liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based proteomics analysis was used to survey the global changes of colonic mucosa proteins between different groups. A Nano flow Ultimate 3000 HPLC (Dionex Corp, Sunnyvale, CA) coupled online to a Q-Exactive Plus mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) was used in this project.
Project description:The study determined whether there were gender differences in the <br>expression of hippocampal genes in adult rats in association with dissimilarity <br>in their behavior, and how these were affected by prenatal stress. Pregnant <br>Wistar rats were subjected to varied stress once daily on days 14-20 of <br>gestation.<br>
Project description:Analysis of LBNF1 rat testes from controls, containing both somatic and all germ cell types and from irradiated rats in which all cells germ cells except type A spermatgogonia are eliminated. Results provide insight into distinguishing germ and somatic cell genes and identification of somatic cell genes that are upregulated after irradiation.
