Project description:We evaluated the profile of lncRNA and mRNA expression in control and 50μg/ml DEP treated HBE cells using the Arraystar Human LncRNA Array v3.0 array,7th generation. Our findings implicates that dysregulation of mitochondria invovled mRNAs may play important role in cytotoxicity of DEP. Examination of lncRNA and mRNA expression in control or DEP-treated HBE cells

Project description:To elucidate Al2O3 NPs role in recovery of soybean under flooding stress, gel-free proteomic technique was used. The proteomic analysis of root including hypocotyl at 2, and 4 days of flooding with 50 ppm Al2O3 NPs leading to subsequent removal as compared to flooding was performed.
Project description:The present study aimed to investigate the human serum proteome wide interaction of aluminium oxide nanoparticles (Al2O3-NPs). Methodologically, the specific interaction of serum proteins with Al2O3-NPs were explored through high resolution proteomic profiling. Here we employed LC-MS/MS based HRMS protocol to explore the list of interacted proteins. Further, novel human serum proteins interacted with Al2O3-NPs and its associated molecular pathways have been illustrated.
Project description:Objectives: To explore the molecular mechanisms of PM2.5-induced dysfunction in human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs). Methods: RNA-Seq was performed to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in PM2.5-exposed HCECs compared to unexposed condition, which was followed by validation via real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Results: A total of 434 DEGs—240 up-regulated and 194 down-regulated—were identified in PM2.5-exposed HCECs rather than unexposed HCECs. The expression of a few genes related to proliferation, inflammation, and aryl hydrocarbon stimulation were significantly altered by PM2.5 exposure, which may contribute to PM2.5-related corneal diseases. Conclusion: The present study identified the altered expression of hundreds of genes in HCECs exposed to PM2.5, which suggests the importance of PM2.5 for cornea health.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to investigate the effects of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure on mouse olfactory bulb using next generation sequencing (NGS). Methods: After 28 days of 3 mg/kg/3 day and 10 mg/kg/3 day PM2.5 exposure, olfactory bulb mRNA profiles of 8-week-old wild-type (WT) male C57BL/6 mice were generated by deep sequencing, in 3-4 repeats, using Illumina NovaSeq 6000. For each sample, clean reads were obtained that mapped to mm10 using HISAT2 (hierarchical indexing for spliced alignment of transcripts) v2.0.477. Results: Our study revealed that PM2.5 treatment caused significant effects on the gene expression profilling of mouse olfactory bulb. Overall, the sequencing identified 34,745 transcripts, and two kinds of treatments obtained 60 and 138 differently expressed genes (DEGs) respectively, with a criteria of fold change >2 and q-value <0.5. Most biological events that DEGs involved were inflammation relevant. Conclusions: Our study revealed that PM2.5 treatment caused significant effects on the gene expression profiling of mouse olfactory bulb.
