Project description:Aim of this project was the evaluation of the effect of flushing (intraportal and intraoperative) hepatic allografts with tacrolimus before transplantation. Group A was administered tacrolimus, 20ng/ml in 1500ml albumin solution; and Group B was administered only albumin solution. Wedge biopsie of the allograft were harvested after 15 min flushing time and the gene expression profile were determined. The primary study objective was to determine on a genome-wide basis whether intraoperative and intraportal treatment of the allograft with tacrolimus reduces inflammatory signature in the liver. The secondary objective was the causally test, whether suppression of genes belongong to the ontologies of inflammation and immune response by tacrolimus will lead to a better initial function of the liver. randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled trial

Project description:Over 20% of Earth’s terrestrial surface is underlain by permafrost that represents one of the largest terrestrial carbon pools, with an estimated ~1700 Pg of carbon (C) contained in the upper 3 m of permafrost. Models estimate that C release from thawing permafrost might represent the largest new transfer of C from the biosphere to the atmosphere as the climate warms. Here we investigated microbial community phylogeny, genetic functional potential gene expression, and protein production patterns along a natural thaw gradient, including permafrost, the seasonally thawed active layer and nearby thawed thermokarst bog, using a combination of molecular “omics” approaches: metagenomics (MG), metatranscriptomics (MT) and metaproteomics (MP). Highlights from these analyses reveal energy yielding microbial processes and potential strategies for microbial survival in permafrost soils, and linkages between biogeochemical process rates and –omics measurements. The results provide new knowledge about microbial life and activity potential in permafrost, the potential importance of iron reduction as a survival strategy under frozen conditions in mineral soils, and the importance of methanogenesis following thaw. The multi-omics strategy demonstrated here enables better mechanistic understanding of the ecological strategies utilized by soil microbial communities in response to climate change.

Project description:In order to uncover the biological processes affected in glial cells by aging, we analyzed microarray gene expression of the Schwann cell-rich mouse sciatic nerve at 17 time-points throughout life, from day of birth until senescence. In addition, we combined these data with the microarray gene expression data of myelin 56 day-old mouse mutants carrying deletions of either Pmp22, SCAP or Lpin1. Seven mice were dissected per developmental or aging time-point. Both sciatic nerves were isolated from each mouse and tissues were pooled per time-point to extract total RNA. For the mutants and their wild-type littermates, sciatic nerves were dissected from three mice per genotype. Tissues were not pooled, which generated triplicates per genotype. Total RNA was extracted, purified and quality-controlled. For each condition, 300 ng of total RNA was used to synthesize cRNA using the Illumina TotalPrep RNA amplification kit (Ambion). The cRNA was then quantified, quality controlled and hybridized to the MouseWG-6 v1 expression Beadchips (Illumina) according to the manufacturerM-^Rs instructions.

Project description:The goal of the study is to examine changes in tumor gene expression after imiquimod treatment. RNA was extracted from spontaneous tumors in control mice (n=4) and in imiquimod-treated mice (n=4). Gene expression was compared between the control group and the treated group. In the imiquimod treatment group, the mice received topical treatment of 5% imiquimod cream (Aldara) on shaved skin at the site of spontaneous tumors for one treatment cycle (3 consecutive days). RNA was extracted from 4 spontaneous tumors from neu-tg mice treated with topical imiquimod for 1 cycle and 4 spontaneous tumors from control mice

Project description:Steroid-refractory acute rejection is a risk factor for inferior renal allograft outcome. We aimed to gain insight into the mechanisms underlying steroid resistance by identifying novel molecular markers of steroid-refractory acute rejection. Eighty-three kidney transplant recipients (1995-2005), who were treated with methylprednisolone during a first acute rejection episode, were included in this study. Gene expression patterns were investigated in a discovery cohort of 36 acute rejection biopsies, and verified in a validation cohort of 47 acute rejection biopsies. In the discovery set, expression of metallothioneins (MT) was significantly (P<0.000001) associated with decreased response to steroid treatment. Multivariate analysis resulted in a predictive model containing MT-1 as an independent covariate (AUC=0.88, P<0.0000001). In the validation set, MT-1 expression was also significantly associated with steroid resistance (P=0.029). Metallothionein expression was detected in macrophages and tubular epithelial cells. Parallel to the findings in patients, in vitro experiments of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 11 donors showed that non-response to methylprednisolone treatment is related to highly elevated MT levels. High expression of metallothioneins in renal allografts is associated with resistance to steroid treatment. Metallothioneins regulate intracellular concentrations of zinc, through which they may diminish the zinc-requiring anti-inflammatory effect of the glucocorticoid receptor. Transcriptional profiles of 40 renal allograft biopsy samples were analyzed using Illumina HumanRef-8 v3.0 BeadChips (Illumina, San Diego, CA). Expression profiles were investigated in total RNA isolated from biopsy samples of 18 patients with steroid responsive acute rejection and 18 patients with steroid resistant acute rejection. Four biopsies, taken during acute decrease of graft function but with no histomorphologic indication of rejection, were included as controls.

Project description:This study addresses this gap by conducting a direct comparison of eight platforms, representing both affinity-based and diverse mass spectrometry approaches, and covering over 13,000 proteins. By applying these platforms to the same cohort, we systematically assess their performance, identifying key differences and complementary strengths.

Project description:Homeobox genes encode transcription factors that control patterning of virtually all organ systems including the hematopoietic system. However, the role of homeobox genes in controlling development of the erythroid and megakaryocytic lineages is poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the role of the homeobox gene DLX4 in erythroid and megakaryocytic differentiation using the bipotent cell line K562 as a model. We compared the global gene expression profile of K562 cells that stably overexpressed DLX4 with that of vector-control K562 cells. As positive controls, global gene expression profiles were evaluated in vector-control K562 cells that were stimulated with Activin A (ActA) to induce erythroid differentiation and in vector-control K562 cells that were stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) to induce megakaryocytic differentiation. Our study provides insights into the role of homeobox genes in controlling differentiation of the erythroid and megakaryocytic lineages. Three groups of samples were included: DLX4 vs Empty vector; Activin A vs None; PMA vs DMSO
