Project description:To screen for potential miRNA that may contribute to the etiopathogenesis of EDS-HT/JHS miRNA expression profiling was performed using the Affymetrix GeneChip® miRNA 3.0 Array and comparing the miRNA expression changes of skin fibroblasts of five EDS-HT/JHS patients with those of six healthy individuals Comparison of miRNA expression profiles between five EDS-HT/JHS human fibroblasts and six controls
Project description:To unravel the molecular mechanisms potentially associated with the pathogenesis of the EDS-HT/JHS. Transcriptome-wide expression profiling using the Affymetrix Gene 1.0 ST platform comparing the gene expression patterns of skin fibroblasts of five EDS-HT/JHS patients with those of six healthy individuals Comparison between five EDS-HT/JHS human fibroblasts and six healthy individuals
Project description:Gene expression analysis with microarrays to compare mutant human fibroblast with mutations in ZNF469 versus aged-matched controls.
Project description:To screen for candidate genes that may contribute to the pathogenesis of ATS Transcriptome-wide expression profiling using the Affymetrix Gene 1.0 ST platform comparing the gene expression patterns of skin fibroblasts of three ATS patients with those of three healthy individuals Comparison between three ATS human fibroblasts and three healthy individuals
Project description:To screen for potential miRNA that may contribute to the pathomechanisms of ATS miRNA expression profiling using the Affymetrix GeneChip® miRNA 3.0 Array comparing the miRNA expression changes of skin fibroblasts of three ATS patients with those of three healthy individuals Comparison of miRNA expression profiles between three ATS human fibroblasts and three healthy individuals
Project description:Extreme corneal fragility and thinning, with a high risk of catastrophic corneal rupture secondary to minimal trauma, is the major feature of brittle cornea syndrome (BCS). Expression profiling was performed with microarrays on fibroblasts from two individuals with BCS and two age and sex matched controls.
Project description:Setleis Syndrome is a rare type of facial ectodermal dysplasia characterized by an aged leonine appearance with puckered skin about the eyes, absent eyelashes on both lids or multiple rows on the upper lids and none on the lower lids, eyebrows that slant sharply upward laterally, and a rubbery feel of the nose and chin. Some of the patients showed bilateral temporal marks superficially like forceps marks and like the lesions seen in focal facial dermal dysplasia. We have evidence that Setleis Syndrome is caused by nonsense mutations in the gene coding for the small bHLH transcription factor known as TWIST2 in Puerto Rican and Omani patients. We performed expression microarray analysis of RNA samples derived from skin fibroblasts grown from skin biopsies of Setleis Syndrome patients and normal controls in order to identify genes potentially involved in facial development and the pathogenesis of Setleis Syndrome. A total of 4 control and 4 Setleis Syndrome RNA samples were hybridized to U133 plus 2 Affymetrix 3'IVT arrays in the Mount Sinai School of Medicine Microarray Core Facility.
Project description:Keloids are scars that extend beyond original wounds and are resistant to treatment. In order to improve understanding of the molecular basis of keloid scarring, we have assessed the genomic profiles of keloid fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Skin and scar tissues were obtained for isolation of primary keratinocytes and fibroblasts. Keloid scars were excised from patients undergoing scar excision surgery, normal skin samples were isolated from patients undergoing elective plastic surgery. Primary culters were prepared for keratinocytes and fibroblasts, and were harvested for analysis up to passage three. Nine keloid scars, for adjacent non-lesional keloid skin samples, and three normal skin samples were obtained and cultured. RNA was isolated using RNeasy, and quality verified using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Labeling and hybridization to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST microarray chips was performed by the Vanderbilt Genome Sciences Resource at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
Project description:Total RNA was obtained from cultured skin fibroblasts of two MAF mutation-positive subjects and control (dermal adult skin fibroblasts, ATCC PCS-201-012) (each in duplicates), and was subjected for gene expression profiling to identify differentially expressed genes (DEG).
Project description:The purpose of this study was to isolate NCSCs from oral mucosa using the neurosphere technique. Total RNA from human oral mucosa stromal cells and sphere-formig oral mucosa stromal cells was collected and compared at their gene expression level. Samples from 3 patients were analysed.
