Project description:The purpose of this project was to elucidate gene expression in the peripheral whole blood of acute ischemic stroke patients to identify a panel of genes for the diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. Peripheral blood samples were collected in Paxgene Blood RNA tubes from stroke patients who were >18 years of age with MRI diagnosed ischemic stroke and controls who were non-stroke neurologically healthy. The results suggest a panel of genes can be used to diagnose ischemic stroke, and provide information about the biological pathways involved in the response to acute ischemic stroke in humans. Total RNA extracted from whole blood in n=39 ischemic stroke patients compared to n=24 healthy control subjects.

Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of normal and ischemic stroke patients blood samples. The Illumina Infinium 850k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 850,000 CpGs in liquid. Samples included 3 healthy people blood samples, 3 ischemic stroke patients blood samples.
Project description:Stroke is a “brain attack” cutting off vital blood, and consequently the nutrients and oxygen vital to the brain cells that control everything we do. Stroke is a complex disease with unclear pathogenesis resulting from environmental and genetic factors. To better understand IS´s etiology, we performed genomic expression profiling of patients and controls. Gene expression profiling was performed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 20 IS patients and 20 sex- and age-matched controls using Affymetrix microarrays.
Project description:The high incidence, mortality, and disability rate of ischemic stroke impose huge economic burdens on patients and social health care systems.N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most extensive RNA methylation modifications in eukaryotes and participates in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases including ischemic stroke. Peripheral blood neutrophils are forerunners after ischemic brain injury and exert crucial functions.However, the underlying mechanisms of neutrophils in ischemic stroke need to be further clarified. This study aims to explore the transcriptional profiles of m6A modification in neutrophils of patients with ischemic stroke. The Arraystar Human m6A-mRNA&lncRNA Epitranscriptomic microarray analysis was performed on the peripheral blood neutrophils of 3 patients with ischemic stroke and 3 healthy controls, providing the clinical significance of m6A modification on ischemic stroke.

Project description:Blood from subjects with cardioembolic stroke and controls was collected, and the RNA extracted was interrogated and whole genome U133 Affymetrix Arrays. Twenty-three control samples and sixty-nine cardioembolic stroke samples were assayed. Blood from subjects with cardioembolic stroke and controls was collected, and the RNA extracted was interrogated and whole genome U133 Affymetrix Arrays. Twenty-three control samples and sixty-nine cardioembolic stroke samples were assayed. Cardioembolic stroke subjects were analyzed at three time points: less than 3 hours, 5 hours, and 24 hours following the event.
Project description:We performed a genome-wide methylation study in whole-blood DNA from 404 ischemic stroke patient cohort, distributed across 3 ischemic stroke subtypes: Large-artery atherosclerosis (n=132), Small-artery disease (n=141) and Cardio embolic (n=127) . Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array was used to measure DNA methylation in CpG sites. We performed a genome-wide methylation study in whole-blood DNA from 185 ischemic stroke patient cohort. Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array was used to measure DNA methylation in CpG sites.
