Project description:To investigate the repair mechanism of urethral wound after prostatectomy, we used microarray RNA sequences and bioinformatics methods to analyze the entire transcriptome of post-urethral resection trauma tissue in the rat prostate.
Project description:This data series contains the sequences and read counts of Piwi-interacting RNAs and other small RNAs from mouse and rat testes extracts. In a search for different classes of small RNAs that might be involved in transcriptional gene silencing, we encountered a novel class of small RNAs within mammalian testes. This study reports the identification of small RNAs and their relative abundance levels to each other based on the deep coverage of the cDNA library. Keywords: High-throughput pyrosequencing by the 454 Life Sciences Genome Sequencer 20™ System
Project description:We performed carefully designed and controlled animal feeding studies. We devided 9 adult rats in three group and each group fed with one type of diets in 28 days: rice, potatoes and chow. We fed piglets in triplicate either with cow milk or let them feed from sows milk for 4 weeks followed by 7 weeks of maize diet. Based on the small RNA sequencing data from 9 rat and 6 pig serum samples, we detected no transfer of plant miRNAs into rat blood, or bovine milk sequences into piglet blood.
