Genetic variation governs protein expression through both transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes. To investigate this relationship, we combined a multiplexed, mass spectrometry-based method for protein quantification with an emerging mouse model harboring extensive genetic variation from 8 founder strains. We collected genome-wide mRNA and protein profiling measurements to link genetic variation to protein expression differences in livers from 192 Diversity Outcross mice. Overall design: Illumina 100bp single-end liver RNA-seq from 192 male and female Diversity Outbred 26-week old mice raised on standard chow or high fat diet. Each sample was sequenced in 2x technical replicates across multiple flowcells. Samples were randomly assigned lanes and multiplexed at 12-24x.

View SamplesIn order to investigate how electrophysiological properties vary within the Pthlh population in the dorsolateral striatum we performed PatchSeq analysis of neurons labeled in 5HT3a(EGFP) and Pvalb(cre)::RCE/tdTomato mouse lines, which included Th, Npy/Mia, Cck, and Cck/Vip expressing cells. Overall design: 98 FACS-sorted single cells isolated from the dorso-lateral striatum from either a 5ht3a-EGFP mouse line or a Lhx6-cre mouse crossed onto a R26R-tdTomato reporter mouse line

View SamplesRoom temperature whole blood mRNA stabilization procedures, such as the PAX gene system, are critical for the application of transcriptional analysis to population-based clinical studies. Global transcriptome analysis of whole blood RNA using microarrays has proven to be challenging due to the high abundance of globin transcripts that constitute 70% of whole blood mRNA in the blood. This is a particular problem in patients with sickle-cell disease, secondary to the high abundance of globin-expressing nucleated red blood cells and reticulocytes in the circulation . In order to more accurately measure the steady state whole blood transcriptome in sickle-cell patients, we evaluated the efficacy of reducing globin transcripts in PAXgene stabilized RNA samples for genome-wide transcriptome analyses using oligonucleotide arrays. We demonstrate here by both microarrays and Q-PCR that the globin mRNA depletion method resulted in 55-65 fold reduction in globin transcripts in whole blood collected from healthy volunteers and sickle-cell disease patients. This led to an improvement in microarray data quality with increased detection rate of expressed genes and improved overlap with the expression signatures of isolated peripheral blood mononuclear (PBMC) preparations. The differentially modulated genes from the globin depleted samples had a higher correlation coefficient to the 112 genes identified to be significantly altered in our previous study on sickle-cell disease using PBMC preparations. Additionally, the analysis of differences between the whole blood transcriptome and PBMC transcriptome reveals important erythrocyte genes that participate in sickle-cell pathogenesis and compensation. The combination of globin mRNA reduction after whole-blood RNA stabilization represents a robust clinical research methodology for the discovery of biomarkers for hematologic diseases and in multicenter clinical trials investigating a wide range of nonhematologic disorders where fractionation of cell types is impracticable.

View SamplesIn order to elucidate the developmental origin of oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and get a better understanding of the several waves of OPC generation, we look at several timepoints and perform single-cell RNA-seq on Pdgfra positive populations in Mice. Overall design: Mice line used in this study included Pdgfra-cre-ERT/RCE and the Pdgfra-H2BGFP knock-in mouse. Embryos at embryonic day 13.5 and pups from post-natal day 7, from both genders of the Pdgfra-GFP mice line were used to extract OPCs, as well as E12.5 and P3 tamoxifen injected mice harvested at P7. The single cell suspension from embryonic and post-natal tissue was FACS sorted for GFP positive cells using a BD FACSAria III Cell Sorter B5/R3/V3 system.
