Project description:Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a permanent segmental dilatation of the abdominal aorta, contributing to a high mortality once rupture. We performed RNA-sequencing analysis of abdominal aorta tissues from 14 participants, including seven patients with AAA and seven control individuals.
Project description:We conducted single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) on CD4+ T cells of the aneurysmal aorta and the corresponding splenic cells, in order to unveil the diversity of CD4+ T Cell in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms.
Project description:Lysyl hydroxylase 1 (LH1) plays an important role in hydroxylation of lysyl residuel in Xaa-Lys-Gly. The hydroxylysine residues serve as sites of attachment for carbohydrate units which are essential for the formation of intra- and intermolecular collagen crosslinks. To gain mechanistic insights into the effects of LH1 deficiency on abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) formation, a whole transcriptomic analysis of abdominal aorta were performed using RNA-seq. The abdominal aorta of mice for RNA-seq were acquired at day 14 after angiotensin II infusion in order to provide the mechanistic or causal evidence of a direct participatory role of LH1 to the effects of AAA.
Project description:This database provides TMT-labeled proteomic data of aorta (thoracic aorta), brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, muscle (gastrocnemius muscle), and skin (abdominal skin) of 6, 15, 24, and 30 months old male C57BL/6 mice. In addition to the whole-tissue lysate, low-soluble protein-enriched fraction was also analyzed for heart, kidney, lung, muscle, and skin. Bulk RNA-Seq data are available for brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, muscle, and skin. The tissues used for transcriptomic analysis and proteomic analysis of whole-tissue lysate and low-soluble protein-enriched fraction were collected from the same mice. All analyses were conducted with 4 biological replicates.
Project description:The goals of this study is to compare the differently expressed genes in abdominal aorta tissue of WKY and SHR as well as differently expressed genes in the abdominal aorta tissue of SHR with or without neferine treatment. The rat (n=15) were randomly divided into 3 groups: WKY,SHR, and SHR + neferine - H (high concentration) groups (n=6 for each group). Rat in WKY and SHR groups were intragastrically with double distilled water (dd H2O); while rat in SHR + SHR + neferine - H groups were intragastrically with 10mg/kg/D of neferine for 10 weeks. Then the abdominal aorta were used to identify differentially expressed genes among different groups.
Project description:Dissecting abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening condition characterized by medial layer degeneration of the abdominal aorta. Complex, complicated, and extremely heterogeneous diseases like dissecting AAAs severely limit our ability to understand it. A thorough understanding of cell types and signaling pathways associated with the initiation and progression of dissecting AAA is essential for the development of medical therapy. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed on the abdominal aortas from ApoE-/- mice at days 28 post-Angiotensin II-induced mouse dissecting AAAs. According to the Angiotensin II-induced dissecting AAA model described in this study, alterations in cellular subpopulations, fractions, and transcriptome profiles are present.
Project description:Gene expression profiles were used to identify pathways common to arteries from different vascular beds. We used the Illumina Sentrix-6 whole-genome microarray platform to identify genes that are expressed in common between abdominal aorta and intracranial arteries of the circle of Willis. Keywords: Characterization of expression in normal arteries from different vascular beds: intracranial arteries and abdominal aorta.
Project description:Endothelial-enriched total RNAs were obtained from the suprarenal region of the abdominal aorta which is the murine AAA prone area in AngII-infused C57BL/6 mice.
