Project description:The aim of this study was to develop a suitable method to preserve fecal samples for metaproteomics analyses when flash-freezing is not an option. Fecal samples were collected from conventional adult C57BL/6 mice and combined into a fecal master mix. The fecal master mix was then split into 48 subsamples that were subjected to different preservation treatments. The following six preservation methods were tested: flash-freezing in liquid nitrogen followed by storage at -80°C, immersion in RNAlater® and storage at room temperature, immersion in RNAlater® and immediate storage at -80°C, immersion in 95% ethanol and storage at room temperature, immersion in a RNAlater-like buffer “NAP buffer” and storage at room temperature, and immersion in an autoclaved RNAlater-like buffer “Autoclaved NAP buffer” and storage at room temperature. Proteins were extracted from the samples after being stored for 1 and 4 weeks. There were 4 replicates per treatment and time-point. Samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS and the data were analyzed with Proteome Discoverer against a large database of mouse microbiota protein sequences.
Project description:Purpose: We investigated the transcriptomic change in brown fat of young and old mice (wild type) through high-throughput RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) analysis when the mice were exposed to cold room or room temperatur. Methods: We prepared 10 of young (3 months) mice and 9 of old (24 months) mice, and kept them in cold room (4°c) or room temperature (24°c) for 24 hours. Then, we sacrified mice and extracted RNA from brown fat tissue (BAT) for RNA-seq experiment. Results: BAT of Young mice showed increased carbohydrate metabolism and glycolytic flux during cold exposure Conclusions: The thermogenesis function of BAT is accelerated on cold exposure.
Project description:Along with lipidomic and metabolomic analyses, we analysed the effect of short-term heat stress on Nicotiana tabacum pollen tubes. Tubes were either grown for 3 hours at room temperature, for 6 hours at room temperature or for 3 hours at room temperature and then 37 °C for another 3 hours.
