In order to study the improtance of HSFA6b in salt and heat stresses of arabidopsis, we generated the HSFA6b-overexpression (HSFA6b-OE) and dominant-negative (HSFA6b-RD) mutant lines.

View SamplesThis is the first study to investigate mRNA expression profiling in regard to hepatic I/R and IPO by next-generation RNA-Seq. Our results may provide an experimental basis for elucidating the underlying mechanism of IPO and reveal candidate biomarkers with which to assess hepatic I/R injury Overall design: liver mRNA profiles of sham, I/R and IPO mice were generated by next-generation sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 4000.

View SamplesThe tumor suppressor protein p53 functions to regulate diverse cellular processes including apoptosis, cell cycle, senescence and metabolism. Act as a master transcription factor, it can transcriptionally regulate the gene expression of many downstream target genes. p53 is frequently mutated in cancer by single nucleotide/amino acid substitutions at the DNA binding domain that result in a mutant form of p53 protein and usually loses its DNA binding and transcriptional regulation abilities.
p53 increases MHC class I expression by upregulating the endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase ERAP1.

View SamplesHomeostatic hematopoietice stem cells (HSCs) with greater divisional history lose repopulating potential after very few cell divisions. Divisional history overrides both phenotype and immediate quiescence in determining functional activity. In GFP label retaining system GFP is progressively diluted when cells proceed through a cascade of divisions.

View SamplesTo investigate possible smRNAs linked to TMM silencing by single-stranded and double-stranded silencers, we determined sequences of smRNAs by the Illumina high-throughput sequencing platform and compared silencing efficiency of different strategies. We found that single-stranded silencer alone could promote the production of smRNAs. Overall design: smRNA profiles of 2-week-old wide type seedlings (WT) and different silencers were generated by Illumina Genome Analyzer IIx.

View SamplesAmeloblast differentiation is the most critical stepwise process in amelogenesis, and it is controlled by precise molecular events. To better understand the mechanism controlling pre-ameloblasts (PABs) differentiation into secretory ameloblasts (SABs), a more precise identification of molecules and signaling networks will elucidate the mechanisms governing enamel formation and lay a foundation for enamel regeneration.
Cell cycle control, DNA damage repair, and apoptosis-related pathways control pre-ameloblasts differentiation during tooth development.

View SamplesWe have previously reported that radix Angelica sinensis (RAS) suppressed body weight and altered FTO expression in mice with high fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity. In the present study we performed RNA sequencing-mediated transcriptome analysis to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the anti-obesogenic effects of RAS in mice. The results revealed that 36 differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between the RAS supplementation group (DH) and control group (HC). These 36 DEGs were clustered into 297 functional gene ontology (GO) categories, among which several GO annotations and signaling pathways were associated with lipid homeostasis. Six out of the 36 DEGs were identified to be involved in lipid metabolism, with the APOA2 gene a potential anti-obesogenic influence. The expression pattern revealed by RNA-Seq was identical to the results of quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Therefore, RAS supplementation in HFD-induced obese mice was associated with an anti-obesogenic global transcriptomic response. This study provides insight into potential applications of RAS in obesity therapy. Overall design: Examination ofdifferentially-expressed genes in 2 groups.

View SamplesMicroRNAs (miRs) play a key role in the control of gene expression in a wide array of tissue systems where their functions include the regulation of self-renewal, cellular differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis. However, the functional importance of individual miRs in controlling spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) homeostasis has not been investigated. Using high-throughout sequencing, we profiled the expression of miRs in the Thy1+ testis cell population, which is highly enriched for SSCs, and the Thy1- cell population, composed primarily of testis somatic cells. In addition, we profiled the global expression of miRs in cultured germ cells, also enriched for SSCs. Our results demonstrate that miR-21, along with miR-34c, -182, -183, -146a, -465a-3p, -465b-3p, -465c-3p, and -465c-5p are preferentially expressed in the Thy1+ SSC-enriched population, as compared to Thy1- somatic cells, and we further observed that Thy1+ SSC-enriched testis cells and SSC-enriched cultured germ cells share remarkably similar miR expression profiles. Overall design: Spermatogonial Stem Cell enriched cell populations (freshly isolated and short-term cultured) and somatic cell populations were isolated from C57B/L6 mouse donors and subjected to small RNA isolation and sequencing.
