We use the zebrafish embryo model to study the innate immune response against Staphylococcus epidermidis. Therefore, we injected S. epidermidis into the yolk at 2 hpf and took samples at 5 days post injection. Overall design: This deep sequence study was designed to determine the gene expression profile by Staphylococcus epidermidis infection. RNA was isolated from embryos at 5 days post injection. Wildtypes zebrafish embryos were micro-injected into the yolk (2hpf) with 20 CFU of S. epidermdis O-47 mCherry bacteria suspended in PVP (Polyvinylpyrrolidone), or Non-injected as a control. After injections embryos were transferred into fresh egg water and incubated at 28°C. At 5 days post injection 100-200 embryos per group were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and total RNA was isolated using TRIZOL reagent.

View SamplesWe use the zebrafish embryo model to study the innate immune response against Mycobacterium marinum. Therefore, we injected M. marinum into the yolk at the 64 cell stage and took samples at 5 days post injection. Overall design: This deep sequence study was designed to determine the gene expression profile by Mycobacterium marinum infection. RNA was isolated from embryos at 5 days post injection. Wildtypes zebrafish embryos were micro-injected into the yolk (64 cell stage) with 40 CFU of Mycobacterium marinum E11 mCherry bacteria suspended in PVP (Polyvinylpyrrolidone), or Non-injected as a control. After injections embryos were transferred into fresh egg water and incubated at 28°C. At 5 days post injection 50 embryos per group were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and total RNA was isolated using TRIZOL reagent.

View SamplesWe compared Agilent custom made expression microarrays with Illumina deep sequencing for RNA analysis of zebrafish embryos 5 days post fertilization, showing as expected a high degree of correlation of expression of a common set of 15,927 genes for untreated fish. The transcriptomes were also compared for fish injected in the yolk with Mycobacterium marinum Overall design: This RNA deep sequencing study was designed to determine the gene expression profile of zebrafish embryos 5 days post fertilization. We also have compared expression with embryos that were injected with Mycobacterium marinum in the yolk at 2 hours post fertilization. After injections embryos were transferred into fresh egg water and incubated at 28°C. 150 embryos of mock-injected embryos or 200 embryos injected with 12 CFU bacteria were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and total RNA was isolated using TRIZOL reagent.

View SamplesCumulus cells are biologically distinct from other follicular cells and perform specialized roles, transmitting signals within the ovary and supporting oocyte maturation during follicular development. The bi-directional communication between the oocyte and the surrounding cumulus cells is crucial for the acquisition of oocyte competence. Using Illumina/deep-sequencing technology, we dissected the small RNAome of pooled human mature MII oocytes and cumulus cells. Overall design: Cumulus cells and MII mature oocytes small RNA profiles were generated by deep-sequencing, using Illumina 1G sequencer

View SamplesWe recently reported that carbon monoxide (CO) has bactericidal activity. To understand its mode of action we analysed the gene expression changes occurring when Escherichia coli, grown aerobically and anaerobically, is treated with the carbon monoxide releasing molecule, CORM-2. The E. coli microarray analysis shows that E. coli CORM-2 response is multifaceted with a high number of differentially regulated genes spread through several functional categories, namely genes involved in inorganic ion transport and metabolism, regulators, and genes implicated in posttranslational modification, such as chaperones. CORM-2 has higher impact in E. coli cells grown anaerobically, as judged by the existence of repressed genes belonging to eight functional classes which are absent in aerobically CORM-2 treated cells. In spite of the relatively stable nature of the CO molecule, our results show that CO is able to trigger a significant alteration in the transcriptome of E. coli which necessarily has effects in several key metabolic pathways.
