Project description:Longitudinal samples were collected from neonates in the NICU at the Royal Womenâs Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. Blood collection occurred by heel stick and was collected on Whatman paper shortly after birth at 25 weeks gestation, one day post birth, and at the equivalent of 28, 32, 36, and 40 weeks gestation. DNA methylation was assessed in whole blood taken from 2 samples. DNA was extracted using the DNeasy Kit (Qiagen). DNA methylation was interrogated for each sample using the HumanMethylation450 BeadChip (Illumina).

Project description:Placental insufficiency is implicated in spontaneous preterm birth (SPTB). We performed RNA-seq study in male and female placentas from women (African American, self-identified) with SPTB (< 36 weeks gestation) compared to normal pregnancies (≥ 38 weeks gestation) to assess the alterations in gene expression profiles.

Project description:Preterm birth, defined as birth <37 weeks of gestation, is a leading cause of infant morbidity and mortality. In the United States, approximately 12% of all births are preterm.1 Despite decades of research, there has been little progress in developing effective interventions to prevent preterm birth. In fact, the rate of preterm birth has increased slightly over the last several decades.2 The ultimate goal of the Genomic and Proteomic Network for Preterm Birth Research (GPN-PBR) is to identify possible biomarkers that could predict the susceptibility to spontaneous preterm birth (SPTB) as well as to shed light on the molecular mechanisms involved in its etiologies. Understanding those mechanisms will help us predict SPTB and may facilitate the introduction of more effective prevention and treatment strategies.

Project description:We used our newly ultra deep sequence data and bioinformatics to re-annotate P. xylostella genome for high confidence miRNAs with the correct 5p and 3p arm features. Furthermore, the whole genome was screened to identify potential miRNA binding sites using three target-predicting algorithms. Totally, 203 mature miRNAs were annotated, including 33 novel miRNAs. Two geographical populations of Diamondback moth larvae from Queensland (Gatton) and South Australia (Waite) were collected and reared on the cabbage plant at the University of Queensland in Australia. Total RNA was extracted from fifteen 3rd instar larval samples using Triazol® following the manufacturerâs protocol (Life Technologies). The small RNA libraries were generated from both populations with three biological replicates using the Illumina Truseq small RNA preparation kit at the Australian Genome Research Facility (AGRF-Melbourne, Australia). The purified cDNA libraries were sequenced on Illumina HiSeq and raw sequencing reads (50 nt) were obtained using Illuminaâs Sequencing Control Studio software.

Project description:Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) was used to measure the levels of gene transcription in perirenal adipose tissue (PRAT) in late gestation sheep fetuses (~ 2 weeks before birth) and in 12 week old lambs.

Project description:Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) was used to measure the levels of gene transcription in perirenal adipose tissue in late gestation sheep fetuses (~ 2 weeks before birth). Through the discovery of SNP in the population, allele specific expression was identified.

Project description:In mammalian species, the first days after birth are an important period for survival and the rates of mortality before weaning are high. In pigs, the perinatal deaths average 20% of the litter, with important economic and societal consequences. Among the factors influencing piglet survival at birth, the maturity is likely to be one of the most important. Maturity can be defined as the outcome of complex mechanisms of intra-uterine development and maturation occurring during the last month of gestation. Here, we provide new insights on maturity by studying the end of gestation at two different stages (three weeks before term and close to term) in two breeds of pigs that strongly differ in terms of neonatal survival. Since metabolomics is a promising approach for phenotype characterization or biomarker discovery, we provide a complete understanding of the metabolome of the fetuses in late gestation in three fluids (plasma, urine, and amniotic fluid). We found that biological processes related to amino acid and carbohydrate metabolisms are critical for piglet maturity. We also confirmed some previously described metabolites associated with delayed growth. Altogether, our study proposes new routes for a better characterization of piglet maturity at birth.

Project description:Preterm birth is a multifactorial condition defined as birth less than 37 weeks of gestation. This study aimed to identify early pregnancy biomarkers from maternal genome-wide and transcriptome-wide data of women experiencing two types of spontaneous PTB (sPTB): spontaneous preterm birth (SPTB) and preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM). Whole blood samples were obtained from women with singleton pregnancies (N=567) recruited at the Liverpool Women’s Hospital at 16 and 20 weeks of gestation. Women with a previous history of sPTB pregnancies <34 weeks were categorised on their index pregnancy outcome as spontaneous preterm birth (SPTB) and preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) or high-risk term control (HTERM, ≥37 weeks). Women with no history of SPTB/PPROM and delivered at term were LTERM (≥39 weeks of gestation). DNA was genotyped on the UK Biobank Axiom™ array (Applied Biosystems™, Thermo Fisher Scientific) and RNA who processed using the Clariom™ D Human assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Genome-wide association analysis, differential expression analysis and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) were completed.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) was used to find regions enriched for the histone modifications, H3K27ac in perirenal adipose tissue in late gestation sheep fetuses, (i.e.~ 2 weeks before birth) . This tissue has a primary role in maintaining thermogenesis in new-born mammals.
