Project description:Four new polyhydroxysteroidal glycosides-culcinosides A-D (1, 2, 4, and 7)-along with three known compounds-echinasteroside C (3), linckoside F (5), and linckoside L3 (6)-were isolated from the ethanol extract of starfish Culcita novaeguineae collected from the Xisha Islands of the South China Sea. The structures of new compounds were elucidated through extensive spectroscopic studies and chemical evidence, especially two-dimensional (2D) NMR techniques. The cytotoxicity of the new compounds against human glioblastoma cell lines U87, U251, and SHG44 were evaluated.

a New Marine-Derived Asterosaponin (CN-3) alleviated the proliferation of U251 MG cells

Project description:Analysis of U251 glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cells treated with a new culcita novaeguineae asterosaponion, CN-3. A new asterosaponin was isolated from culcita novaeguineae, an abundant marine resource in the south China sea. The asterosaponin induced significant growth inhibition with a 50% inhibitory concentration at 48 h of 2.013 μg/mL in U251MG cells. 1.8μg/mL of the asterosaponin reduced U251 MG cells viability from 100 % to 42.5% (24 h), 37.4% (48 h) and 52.1% (72 h). In this study, a microarray analysis was performed using RNA prepared from U251MG GBM cells treated with the asterosaponion. These data revealed that 661 genes had significant differential expressions.

Whole genome bisulfite sequencing of liver samples of five mammals (human, rhesus macaque, mouse, rat and dog)

Project description:This study aims to investigate the DNA methylation patterns at transcription factor binding regions and their evolutionary conservation with respect to binding activity divergence. We combined newly generated bisulfite-sequencing experiments in livers of five mammals (human, macaque, mouse, rat and dog) and matched publicly available ChIP-sequencing data for five transcription factors (CEBPA, HNF4a, CTCF, ONECUT1 and FOXA1). To study the chromatin contexts of TF binding subjected to distinct evolutionary pressures, we integrated publicly available active promoter, active enhancer and primed enhancer calls determined by profiling genome wide patterns of H3K27ac, H3K4me3 and H3K4me1.
