Project description:RNAseq was carried out to identify the transcriptomic changes that occur in healthy adult volunteers given either placebo or metformin from 3-days before to 3-days after live-attenuated YF-17D vaccination. Whole blood was collected at baseline (before placebo/metformin therapy), before YF-17D vaccination, Day 1, Day 3, Day 7 and Day 10 post YF-17D vaccination for RNAseq.
Project description:Mechanisms of poor responses to vaccines remain unknown. Yellow fever-naïve adults were vaccinated with a yellow fever vaccine (YF-17D, Stamaril). Transcriptomic profilling of blood collected pre-vaccination and post-vaccination (day 3, 7, 14 and 84) was performed in order to identify candidate biomarkers of antibody response to the vaccine.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to compare endothelial small RNA transcriptome to identify the target of OASL under basal or stimulated conditions by utilizing miRNA-seq. Methods: Endothelial miRNA profilies of siCTL or siOASL transfected HUVECs were generated by illumina sequencing method, in duplicate. After sequencing, the raw sequence reads are filtered based on quality. The adapter sequences are also trimmed off the raw sequence reads. rRNA removed reads are sequentially aligned to reference genome (GRCh38) and miRNA prediction is performed by miRDeep2. Results: We identified known miRNA in species (miRDeep2) in the HUVECs transfected with siCTL or siOASL. The expression profile of mature miRNA is used to analyze differentially expressed miRNA(DE miRNA). Conclusions: Our study represents the first analysis of endothelial miRNA profiles affected by OASL knockdown with biologic replicates.
Project description:A cDNA library was constructed by Novogene (CA, USA) using a Small RNA Sample Pre Kit, and Illumina sequencing was conducted according to company workflow, using 20 million reads. Raw data were filtered for quality as determined by reads with a quality score > 5, reads containing N < 10%, no 5' primer contaminants, and reads with a 3' primer and insert tag. The 3' primer sequence was trimmed and reads with a poly A/T/G/C were removed
