Project description:Identification of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) associated genes. Post mortem spinal cord grey matter from sporadic and familial ALS patients compared with controls.
Project description:Identification of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (fALS) related genes. Material from three hSOD1(G93A) transgenic mice was compared to material from three non-transgenic control mice using an alternating loop design on two-colour cDNA microarrays. Statistical data management and analysis: postgreSQL relational database (www.postgresql.org), Perl, and R (www.r-project.org); pin-wise lowess-regression based normalisation (Yang et al., 2002 [PMID: 11842121]); mixed ANOVA-model. Keywords = amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ALS, SOD1 mouse model
Project description:This experiment series sought to detect genome-wide methylation in sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis brains and compare it to normal control brains. Methylation across the whole genome was measured in brain DNA of 10 SALS patients and 10 neurologically-normal controls. Methylated DNA was immunoprecipitated and interrogated by Affymetrix GeneChip Human Tiling 2.0R Array Sets. Methylation calls were compared between SALS patients and controls at each methylated site. Keywords: ChIP-Chip
Project description:This study was designed to identify gene expression changes in skeletal muscle that could define reliably the degree of the severity of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). All samples were from human biopsies, either from healthy muscles or from muscle whose patients were clearly diagnosed as having Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
Project description:We used oligonucleotide microarrays to find differentially expressed genes between control subjects and those affected by sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Experiment Overall Design: Complementary RNAs (cRNAs) labelled with Cy5-CTP (Perkin-Elmer) were synthesized from 1 µg of total RNA of each sample of human motor cortex using the Low RNA Input Fluorescent Linear Amplification Kit (Agilent Technologies) following the manufacturerâs protocol. A reference cRNA, labelled with Cy3-CTP (Perkin-Elmer), was synthesized from 1 µg of sample Diseased 2 RNA. Aliquots (750 ng) of Cy3 and Cy5 labelled cRNA targets were co-hybridized on Whole Human Genome Oligo Microarrays (Agilent Technologies). Microarray hybridization and washing were performed using reagents and instruments (hybridization chambers and rotating oven) as indicated by the manufacturer (Agilent Technologies). Microarrays were scanned at 10-μm resolution using a GenePix Personal 4100A microarray scanner and the GenePix Pro 6.0 acquisition and data-extraction software (Molecular Devices, Corp.).
Project description:In previous studies, miR-1825 has been found to be downregulated in the serum of familial and sporadic patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In this study, we aim to identify the target mRNAs of miR-1825 using a combination of proteomic and transcriptomic approaches.
