Project description:Prostate of SD rats was injected with 0.1 ml 1% carrageenan to induce chronic nonbacterial prostatitis, and the control rats injected with sterile saline. Then, the cecal contents were collected for 16S rDNA sequencing.
Project description:We utilized the well-characterized murine T cell transfer model of colitis to find specific alterations in the intestinal luminal proteome associated with inflammation. Mass spectrometry proteomic analysis of colonic samples permitted the identification of ~10,000-12,000 unique peptides that corresponded to 5610 protein clusters identified across three groups, including the colitic Rag1 -/- T cell recipients, isogenic Rag1 -/- controls, as well as wild-type mice. Bioinformatic analyses on host and microbial proteins found specific proteins and GO term functionalities unique to each group, as well as GO terms shared across the three cohorts. We further demonstrated that the colitic mice exhibited a significant increase in Proteobacteria and Verrucomicrobia that was substantiated with 16S rDNA sequencing.
Project description:The relationship between the microbial changes with clinical-pathological outcomes are still far from being conclusive. Herein, we investigate the ability of metagenomics (MG) and metaproteomics (MP) saliva data in distinguishing C, L0 and L1 patients. For that, we combined two strategies using MG analysis using 16S rDNA sequencing of saliva cells, and MP analysis using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry of saliva supernatant and cells.
Project description:We compared the microbiota of paired mouse caecal contents and faeces by applying a multi-omic approach, including 16S rDNA sequencing, shotgun metagenomics, and shotgun metaproteomics. The aim of the study was to verify whether faecal samples are a reliable proxy for the mouse colonic luminal microbiota, as well as to identify changes in taxonomy and functional activity between caecal and faecal microbial communities, which have to be carefully considered when using stool as sample for mouse gut microbiota investigations.
