Project description:The loss of compact myocardial cardiomyocyte (compact CM) identity suggests that PRDM16 deficiency may dramatically alter the cellular composition in left ventricular (LV) compact myocardium. To test this hypothesis, we performed single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) to examine gene dysreulation in Prdm16cKO heart. We also performed Visium Spatial Transcriptomics (ST) to facilitate mapping CM clusters to their original locations in the heart. As a result, we were able to demonstrate gene misregulation in Prdm16cKO mouse mainly occurred in LV compact CM.

Project description:We reported the microbial communities in wastewater between conventional membrane bioreactor (MBR) system and biofilm MBR system using Illumina sequencing.
Project description:We aimed to identify astroglial transcripts preferentially translated in the neurovascular unit. The translatome of whole astrocytes extracted following the bacTRAP protocol was compared to a translatome of astrocyte perivascular endfeet.
Project description:PRDM16 Is a Compact Myocardium-Enriched Transcription Factor Required to Maintain Compact Myocardial Cardiomyocyte Identity in Left Ventricle
Project description:Here we established a differentiation strategy that promotes the specification, proliferation and maturation of a compact cardiomyocyte population from hPSCs. The cardiomyocytes generated under these conditions display the hallmark phenotypic characteristics of post-natal cardiomyocytes.
