Twenty one day old seedlings of the mutant and WT grown in hydroponic culture in three replications were subjected to 25% PEG stress for one hour. The leaf samples of stressed and control seedlings were collected and preserved in liquid nitrogen for RNA isolation. Total RNA from four samples i.e. mutant control (MC), mutant stress (MS), Nagina22 control (NC) and Nagina22 stress (NS) was extracted by following the manufacturer‰۪s instructions provided with SV Total RNA isolation system Kit (PROMEGA, USA). All the steps starting from cRNA preparation to hybridization were conducted following the instructions of Affymetrix (AffymetrixGeneChip Expression Analysis Technical Manual). Chips were washed and stained in the Affymetrix Fluidics Station 450, and then scanned using the Affymetrix Gene Chip Scanner 3000. The cell intensity data files (.CEL) generated by the Gene Chip Operating Software (GCOS 1.2).

View SamplesWe have identified the overexpression of FGF18 as an independent predictive marker for poor clinical outcome in patients with advanced stage, high-grade serous ovarian cancer. Functional studies have demonstrated that FGF18 promotes migration, invasion and tumorigenicity of ovarian cancer cells in vitro and in vivo.

View SamplesThe aim of this study was to identify candidate genes responsible for grain number per panicle between a pair of rice varieties (Pusa 1266 and Pusa Basmati 1) by combining QTL analysis with expression analysis. Microarray analysis of RNA extracted from the panicle primordia showed 2741 differentially expressed genes. The differentially expressed genes were shortened to 18 on the basis of their occurance in the QTL region (responsible for grain number regulation) detected in RIL population derived from Pusa 1266 and Pusa Basmati 1.

View SamplesType I interferons were discovered as the primary antiviral cytokines and are now known to serve critical functions in host defense against bacterial pathogens. Accordingly, established mediators of interferon antiviral activity may mediate previously unrecognized antibacterial functions. RNase-L is the terminal component of an RNA decay pathway that is an important mediator of interferon-induced antiviral activity. Here we identify a novel role for RNase-L in the host antibacterial response. RNase-L-/- mice exhibited a dramatic increase in mortality following

View SamplesThe aim of this study was to minimize the number of candidate genes responsible for salt tolerance between a pair of rice varieties (CSR27 and MI48) with contrasting level of salt tolerance by bulked segregant analysis of their recombinant inbred lines. Microarray analysis of RNA extracted from the tolerant and susceptible parents without and with stress showed 798 and 2407 differentially expressed genes, respectively. The number of differentially expressed genes was drastically reduced to 70 and 30, by pooling the RNAs from ten extreme tolerant and ten extreme susceptible RILs due to normalization of irrelevant differentially expressed genes between the parents.

Overall design: mRNA profiles of 89 human pancreatic islet donors having different levels of blood glucose (HbA1c) with and without T2D. The data was generated by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2000.

View SamplesAryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) activation by tryptophan (Trp) catabolites enhances tumor malignancy and suppresses anti-tumor immunity. Hitherto, indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) or tryptophan- 2, 3-dioxygenase (TDO2) are recognized as the main Trp-catabolizing enzymes (TCEs) responsible for the generation of AHR agonists. Here, the ability of the aromatic L-amino acid oxidase, interleukin 4 induced 1 (IL4I1), to activate the AHR was investigated using IL4I1 knockout CAS-1 glioblastoma cells.

View SamplesIndole-3-pyruvate (I3P), an endogenous metabolite derived from tryptophan by gut microbiota and IL4I1 enzyme in humans can potentially activate the transcriptional activity of the Aryl Hydrocarbon receptor. Here we test this by stimulating AHR proficient U-87MG cells with I3P alone or in combination with the AHR antagonist SR1.
