Project description:In this study, depending on quantitative liposome and transcriptomic analyses, we unveiled safflower seed lipidic landscapes at 5 different developmental stages of seeds and revealed a parallel classification of 417 lipid compounds and their co-expressed genes into 7 distinct lipidic metabolites vs gene modules (MM vs GM). An essential transcriptional regulatory network for major lipid compounds changes that occurred throughout the seed growth cycle was constructed via integrative bioinformatics coupled with functional genomic assays. Sixteen transcription factors were identified that regulate the accumulation of triacylglycerols (TAGs) and fatty acids (FAs). Our findings thus shed light on the seeds of safflower metabolic regulatory network involved in the biosynthesis of major lipid compounds and provide a prospective resource for the designed improvement of oilseed quality.

Project description:BALB/c mice were vaccinated with inactivated influenza A virus adjuvanted with liposomal TLR4 (2B182C) and TLR7 agonists (2B182C) on days 0 and 21. To examine whether the liposomal combined adjuvant increase BCR diversity, lymphocytes in the draining lymph nodes harvested on day 28 were analyzed using next-generation RNA sequencing technology.

Project description:Seed size is important to crop domestication and natural selection and is affected by the balance of maternal and paternal genomes in endosperm. Endosperm, like placenta in mammals, provides reserves to the developing embryo. Interploidy crosses disrupt the genome balance in endosperm and alter seed size. Specifically, paternal-excess crosses (2 × 4) delay endosperm cellularization (EC) and produce larger seeds, whereas maternal-excess crosses (4 × 2) promote precocious EC and produce smaller seeds. The mechanisms for responding to the parental genome dosage imbalance and for gene expression changes in endosperm are unknown. In plants, RNA polymerase IV (PolIV or p4) encoded by NRPD1a is required for biogenesis of a major class of 24-nt small interfering RNAs (also known as p4-siRNAs), which are predominately expressed in developing endosperm. Here we show that p4-siRNA accumulation depends on the maternal genome dosage, and maternal p4-siRNAs target transposable elements (TEs) and TE-associated genes (TAGs) in seeds. The p4-siRNAs correlate negatively with expression levels of AGAMOUS-LIKE (AGL) genes in endosperm of interploidy crosses. Moreover, disruption of maternal NRPD1a expression is associated with p4-siRNA reduction and AGL up-regulation in endosperm of reciprocal crosses. This is unique genetic evidence for maternal siRNAs in response to parental genome imbalance and in control of transposons and gene expression during endosperm development.

Project description:A2780 ovarian cancer cells and a cisplatin resistant derivate of A2780 cells, obtained from ECACC, UK, No. 93112519 [A2780] and No. 93112517 [A2780 cis] were seeded out in T-75 flasks at a density of 2x106 for A2780sens and 3x106 for A2780cis cells in 15 ml of medium and preincubated overnight. Medium was removed and 15 ml fresh medium (37M-0C) with different concentrations of cisplatin, liposomal cisplatin or empty liposomes were added and incubated for 72 h at 37M-0C in a 5% CO2 incubator. In case of A2780sens cells, 1.72 M-5M cisplatin (IC50 concentration) and in case of A2780cis cells 8.94 M-5M cisplatin (IC50 concentration) were added. Liposomal formulations contained equal cisplatin concentrations. Empty liposomes were added in the same concentration as the liposomal cisplatin, to analyze the impact of liposomal lipids (A2780sens: 0.80M-5mol lipid, A2780cis: 4.15 M-5mol lipid). After incubation, medium was removed and cells were washed thrice with 10 ml PBS. 1 ml RLT-buffer was added and cells lysates were stored at -80M-0C until RNA extraction.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) affects nearly 10% of the population of the United States and other industrialized countries and, at present, short of surgical joint replacement, there is no therapy available that can reverse the progression of the disease OA. Adenosine, acting at its A2A receptor (A2AR), is a critical autocrine factor for maintenance of cartilage homeostasis. Here we report that injection of liposomal suspensions of a selective A2AR agonist, CGS21680, significantly reduced OA cartilage damage in a rat model of established post-traumatic OA (PTOA). Differential expression analysis of mRNA from chondrocytes harvested from knees of rats with PTOA treated with liposomal A2AR agonist revealed downregulation of genes associated with matrix degradation and upregulation of genes associated with cell proliferation as compared to liposomes alone.

Project description:Gene expression profiles during seed development and fatty acid (FA) metabolism, as well as the relevant regulation, of Brassica napus were studied through multiple high-throughput genomic approaches. Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE) using seed materials obtained a total of 68,718 tags, of which 23,897 were unique and 503 tags were functionally identified, and revealed the transcriptome of approximately 35,000 transcripts in B. napus developing seeds. Further, ~22,000 independent ESTs were obtained by large-scale sequencing using immature embryos at different stages, and 8343 uni-ESTs and 3355 full-length cDNAs were identified respectively, resulting in the systemic identification of B. napus FA biosynthesis-related genes. Gene expression profiles were further studied employing cDNA chip hybridization to reveal the global regulatory network of FA metabolism in developing seeds. Together with the analysis on FA amounts and composition, it was shown that 17-21 days after pollination (DAP) was a crucial stage for transition of seed to sink tissue. High expressions of FA biosynthesis-related genes and transition of FA components are mainly at stages 21 DAP or 21-25 DAP respectively. In addition, compared to Arabidopsis, more critical roles of starch metabolism are detected for B. napus seed FA metabolism and storage components accumulation. Crucial effects of starch metabolism, carbon flux, oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OPPP), photosynthesis, and other regulators in FA metabolism were discussed.

Project description:The intermediate seed category was defined in the early 1990s using coffee (Coffea arabica) as a model. In contrast to orthodox seeds, intermediate seeds cannot survive complete drying, which is a major constraint for seed storage, for both biodiversity conservation and agricultural purposes. However, intermediate seeds are considerably more tolerant to drying than recalcitrant seeds, which are highly sensitive to desiccation. To gain insight into the mechanisms governing such differences, changes in desiccation tolerance (DT), hormone content and the transcriptome were analysed in developing coffee seeds. Acquisition of DT coincided with a dramatic transcriptional switch characterised by the repression of primary metabolism, photosynthesis and respiration, and the upregulation of genes coding for late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins, heat shock proteins (HSP) and antioxidant enzymes. Analysis of heat-stable proteome in the mature coffee seed confirmed the accumulation of LEA proteins identified at the transcript level. Transcriptome analysis also suggests a major role for ABA and for the transcription factors CaHSFA9, CaDREB2G, CaANAC029, CaPLATZ and CaDOG-like in DT acquisition. The ability of CaHSFA9 and CaDREB2G to trigger HSP gene transcription was validated by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of coffee somatic embryos.

Project description:Recent technological innovations have enabled the high-throughput quantification of gene expression and epigenetic regulation within individual cells, transforming our understanding of how complex tissues are constructed. Missing from these measurements, however, is the ability to routinely and easily spatially localise these profiled cells. We developed a strategy, Slide-tags, in which single nuclei within an intact tissue section are ‘tagged’ with spatial barcode oligonucleotides derived from DNA-barcoded beads with known positions. These tagged nuclei can then be used as input into a wide variety of single-nucleus profiling assays. We used Slide-tags to profile two different stages of development in the mouse brain.
