Project description:Sphingosine Kinase-1 knock out protects against hyperoxic lung injury One day old Wild type (WT) control and Sphingosine Kinase-1 knock out (SphK-1 KO)pups exposed to room air (RA) or hyperoxia (HO). Microarray based profiling of lung tissue after 7 days of hyperoxia of 75%
Project description:The aim of the study was to investigate whether the trefoil peptide genes, in concerted action with a miRNA regulatory network, were contributing to nutritional maintrenance. Using a Tff2 knock-out mouse model, 48 specific miRNAs were noted to be significantly deregulated when compared to the wild type strain.
Project description:The aim of the study was to investigate whether the trefoil peptide genes, in concerted action with a miRNA regulatory network, were contributing to nutritional maintrenance. Using a Tff3 knock-out mouse model, 21 specific miRNAs were noted to be significantly deregulated when compared to the wild type strain.

Project description:We present the set of pseudomonas responsive genes activated in the WT mice in comparison with Sphk2-/- thereby revealing the genes that could contribute to the protection seen in Sphk2-/- mice. Methods: Lung mRNA profiles of 8 week old male wild-type (WT) and Sphingosine kinase 2 knock out (Sphk2−/−) mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina GAIIx. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level with two way ANOVA (ANOVA). qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays Genetic deletion of Sphk2-/-resisted alteration of host pulmonary genome by PA infection of the lungs promoting its own virulence thereby conferring significant protection against PA pneumonia.
