Project description:Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) contributes to tissue damage, cellular apoptosis, systemic inflammatory responses, and even multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, however, underlying mechanisms remain unkown. In this report, we provide a comprehensive assessment of the expression of 1177 miRNAs on intestine tissues from mice suffering from sham and intestinal I/R. We find that 57 miRNA are up-regulated and 74 are down-regulated significantly. MiRNAs may be integral modulators of intestinal inflammation and enterocyte apoptosis associated with I/R and represent novel targets for future therapeutics. In the study, we profiled miRNA expression in the intestine from mice of 3 sham group and 3 intestinal ischemia/reperfusion group.
Project description:PURPOSE: To provide a detailed gene expression profile of the normal postnatal mouse cornea. METHODS: Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) was performed on postnatal day (PN)9 and adult mouse (6 week) total corneas. The expression of selected genes was analyzed by in situ hybridization. RESULTS: A total of 64,272 PN9 and 62,206 adult tags were sequenced. Mouse corneal transcriptomes are composed of at least 19,544 and 18,509 unique mRNAs, respectively. One third of the unique tags were expressed at both stages, whereas a third was identified exclusively in PN9 or adult corneas. Three hundred thirty-four PN9 and 339 adult tags were enriched more than fivefold over other published nonocular libraries. Abundant transcripts were associated with metabolic functions, redox activities, and barrier integrity. Three members of the Ly-6/uPAR family whose functions are unknown in the cornea constitute more than 1% of the total mRNA. Aquaporin 5, epithelial membrane protein and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) omega-1, and GST alpha-4 mRNAs were preferentially expressed in distinct corneal epithelial layers, providing new markers for stratification. More than 200 tags were differentially expressed, of which 25 mediate transcription. CONCLUSIONS: In addition to providing a detailed profile of expressed genes in the PN9 and mature mouse cornea, the present SAGE data demonstrate dynamic changes in gene expression after eye opening and provide new probes for exploring corneal epithelial cell stratification, development, and function and for exploring the intricate relationship between programmed and environmentally induced gene expression in the cornea.

Project description:Profile the microRNA expression in the Gracilis muscle of rat after 4h ischemia and 24 h reperfusion Following 4 h of ischemia and subsequent reperfusion for 4 h of the gracilis muscles, the specimens were analyzed with an Agilent rat miRNA array to detect the expressed miRNAs in the experimental muscles compared to those from the sham-operated controls. Two-condition experiment, Gracilis muscle after 4h ischemia and reperfusion injury for 24 h v.s. Gracilis muscle (sham control), Biological replicates: 2 control replicates, 2 experiement replicates
Project description:Purpose: The aim of this study is to compare the plasma miRNA profile between mice subject to myocardial ischemia and reperfusion and mice subject to sham operation. Methods: 8 to 10-week old C57BL/6 mice underwent myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MIR) or Sham operation. Plasma RNA was isolated using Trizol LS reagent 4h post-surgery. NGS cDNA libraries were prepared using Norgen Biotek Small RNA Library Prep Kit. Library quality was validated prior to sequencing on an Illumina NextSeq 500 platform.
