Chronic alcohol consumption can lead to alchohol-related brain damage (ARBD). Despite the well known acute effects of alcohol the mechanism responsible for chronic brain damage is largely unknown. Pathologically the major change is the loss of white matter while neuronal loss is mild and restricted to a few areas such as the prefrontal cortex. In order to improve our understanding of ARBD pathogenesis we used microarrays to explore the white matter transcriptome of alcoholics and controls.

View SamplesWhole blood RNA-seq was leveraged to explore gene expression changes induced in mice 24 hours after immunisation with a second dose of a licensed vaccine against capsular group B meningococcus, one of the vaccines components, or one of several comparator groups. Overall design: mRNA was profiled from RNA extracted from mouse whole blood, 5-6 samples per group, using an Illumina HiSeq4000
Comparative transcriptomics between species attributes reactogenicity pathways induced by the capsular group B meningococcal vaccine, 4CMenB, to the membrane-bound endotoxin of its outer membrane vesicle component.

View SamplesThe goal of this experiment was to explore the extent of KIN10 (At3g01090) transcriptional regulation and identify its early target genes in Arabidopsis mesophyll protoplasts. Results suggest that KIN10 targets a remarkably broad array of genes that orchestrate transcription networks, promote catabolism and autophagy, and suppress anabolism and ribosome biogenesis. The transient expression condition ruled out secondary or long-term effects of metabolism and growth, and circumvented experimental limitations caused by redundancy and embryonic lethality observed in mammals and plants.

View SamplesThe goal of this experiment was to investigate the early transcript changes (6h) induced by hypoxia treatment in mesophyll protoplasts. A single pair (control & hypoxia) of GeneChips was used to confirm that hypoxia treatment altered the expression of an overlapping set of genes controlled by KIN10 (At3g01090) in Arabidopsis mesophyll protoplasts.
