Project description:To investigate whether metoprolol treatment could affect the transcriptome and translatome of killing supernatant cultured human monocytes
Project description:ATAC sequencing of primary human monocytes cultured at low and high density. Monocytes isolated from PBMCs of 3 healthy donors were cultured at low density (1 x 10^6 cells/mL) or at high density (1 x10^7 cells/mL) for 24hrs and harvested for ATAC sequencing. Protein expression of FcgR2b is higher on monocytes in high density conditions compared to low density conditions, where expression is negligble. This study provides information on genome-wide chromatin accessibility changes that occur in high density culture in order to study associations with FcgR2b expression.
Project description:Little is known of the transcriptome of in vivo-grown pollen tubes, due to the difficulty of collection of pollen tubes elongating within the maternal gynoecium.We obtained the mRNAs undergoing translation (the translatome) of in vivo-grown pollen tubes from self-pollinated gynoecia of Arabidopsis thaliana(Col-0). Transgenic Arabidopsis plants (LAT52-HF-RPL18) harboring an epitope tagged ribosomal protein L18 driven by the pollen specific promoter (ProLAT52) were used for mRNA-ribosome complex isolation. After collection of polyribosomal (polysomal) complexes from self-pollinated (in vivo), unpollinated styles (buds), and in vitro-cultured pollen tubes, the actively translated mRNAs (the translatome) were purified, amplified to antisense RNA (aRNA). These aRNAs were hybridized to microarrays.Three independent biological replicates samples of aRNA from Bud, in vivo, and in vitro polysomal mRNA (translatomes) were hybridized to GeneChips to produce CEL files.
Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has profound effect on gene expression during infection of monocytes. We performed RNA-seq and RIBO-seq to analyze the extend to which HCMV reshapes the transciptome and translatome of infected monocytes.
Project description:We performed RNA sequencing to characterize the effects of methamphetamine on HIV-infected mature monocytes. In vitro cultured HIV-infected mature (CD14+ CD16+) monocytes were treated with and without methamphetamine for 6h. RNA was extracted, sequenced, and analyzed for differential gene expression.
Project description:RNA sequencing of primary human monocytes cultured with and without hypoxia-mimetic agent DMOG (Dimethyloxalylglycine). Monocytes isolated from PBMCs of 7 healthy donors were cultured with and without DMOG for 24hrs and harvested at 0, 2, 10 or 24hrs for RNA sequencing. DMOG suppresses HIF Prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH) activity by acting as a small molecule competitive inhibitor. HIF-PH inhibition leads to increase in endogenous HIF protein levels and mimics aspects of hypoxia. This RNA-seq study allows analysis of transciptome-wide expression pattern changes over time due to DMOG treatment.
