Project description:Orangutans are an endangered species whose natural habitats are restricted to the Southeast Asian islands of Borneo and Sumatra. For potential species conservation and functional genomics studies, we derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from cryopreserved skin fibroblasts obtained from captive orangutans. We report the gene expression profiles of iPSCs and skin fibroblasts derived from orangtuans.

Project description:Dermal fibroblasts from megabat and microbat, stimulated with dsRNA (poly(I:C)) and controls. Bats can harbor some of the most deadliest viruses to humans while rarely displaying pathogenicity themselves. To study their innate immune response - the expression program that is initiated once a pathogen is senseds, we stimulated dermal fibroblast cells from two species (Rousettus aegyptiacus and Pipistrellus kuhlii) for four hours with dsRNA - a viral RNA mimic that triggers a rapid innate immune response. Subsequently, we profiled the response using bulk RNA-seq.
