Project description:Proteomics characterization of the ontogeny of protein changes during normal lung development in laser capture micro-dissected alveolar tissue containing ~4,000 cells per sample
Project description:Laser capture microdissection (LCM) provides a useful method for isolating specific cells or tissues from biological samples. Here, we adapted microdissection protocols to allow high-resolution transcript analysis of different tissues from developing Arabidopsis seed. However, to obtain enough RNA for microarray analyses it was necessary to amplify the RNA. Microarray analyses, using endosperm derived RNA amplified by two-round IVT, reproducibly identified endosperm enriched marker genes. Keywords: LCM Endosperm Arabidopsis
Project description:MicroRNA profiling was performed using multiplex qPCR on laser micro dissected material from 36 PC patients to identify microRNAs associated with recurrence after radical prostatectomy
Project description:We report the application of laser capture microdissection (LCM) for high resolution transcriptome profiling of the second internode of the Arabidopsis thaliana inflorescence stem. In this series, we used LCM to determine and compare the transcriptome profiles of the phloem cap, the pith, and the remaining vascular bundle area.
Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) tumorigenesis proceedes through well defined clinical stages assoicated with charateristic mutations. To get a better understanding of CRC progression at the transcriptional level, we performed transcriptome profiling on samples from normal colonic tissues, pre-malignant adenomas, carcinomas and metatases. We used Affymatrix microarry to get a broad view of gene expression during colorectal cancer progression and identified significantly differentially expressed genes between different stages A total of 58 laser capture micro-dissected tissues that cover the major stages of colorectal cancer progression were collected from the Department of Pathology at the University of Virginia under the supervision of an experienced pathologist. DNA was extracted and run on Affymetrix microarrys. Gene-expression profiles were collected on Affymetrix HG-U133A GeneChips according to the manufacturerâs instructions.
Project description:This series analyses germinating Arabidopsis seeds with both temporal and spatial detail, revealing two transcriptional phases that are separated with respect to testa rupture. Performed as part of the ERA-NET Plant Genomics grant vSEED. Arabidopsis seeds were dissected into four tissues at nine time-points during seed germination. The tissues were the combined micropylar and chalazal endosperm (MCE), the remaining endosperm (PE), the radicle and embryonic axis (RAD) and the cotyledons (COT). At testa and endosperm rupture the seeds were sampled in separate pre- and post-ruptured populations.
Project description:RNA was isolated from laser capture micro-dissected (LCM) tumour nests from fresh frozen skin of K14Cre-ER; Ptch1fl/fl; p53fl/fl mice either before (untreated) or after (treated) 28 days of twice a day vismodegib dosing at 75mg/kg body weight by oral gavage. The "SAMPLE_ID" sample characteristic is a sample identifier internal to Genentech. The ID of this project in Genentech's ExpressionPlot database is PRJ0014355
Project description:Closure or patency of the ductus arteriosus is a critical event in neonatal life. We aimed to identify genes that are specifically expressed in the ductus arteriosus versus (the non-closing) aorta Gene expression profiling of laser-captured microdissected cells offers the opportunity to study gene expression profiles in cells of different embryonic origin Comparative microarray analysis of laser-capture dissected endothelial and smooth muscle cells of the rat ductus arteriosus and aorta at embryonic age E18 and E21.
Project description:Here we perform Bisulfite sequencing (BS-seq) on marmoset post-implantation embryos following laser capture micro dissection to capture methylation profiles of post-implantation tissues. We also perform single-cell BS-seq on pre-implantation marmoset embryos from four-cell to the compacted morula stages.
Project description:E11.5 metanephric mesenchyme and ureteric bud were dissected from the E11.5 kidney rudiment using fine manual microdissection (ureteric bud only) or both fine manual microdissection and laser capture microdissection (metanephric mesenchyme) to define the gene expression profiles of these structures. Additionally, HoxA11, HoxD11 compound null E11.5 metanephric mesenchyme was obtained through laser capture microdissection allowing analysis of possible Hox targets in kidney development. Targets from multiple biological replicates of each were generated and the expression profiles were determined using Affymetrix MOE430_v2 arrays. Keywords: embryonic metanephric kidney, kidney development, Hoxa11, Hoxd11, compound null targeted mice
