Project description:This model was reconstructed from single-nucleus RNA-seq (snRNA-seq) data of human postmortem brain and curated using published metabolomics data from human iPSC-derived neurons and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), together with gene expression data from the Human Protein Atlas. It more accurately simulates human neuronal metabolic flux in neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease (AD).
Project description:Emerging and neglected pathogens pose challenges as their biology is frequently poorly understood, and genetic tools often do not exist to manipulate them. Organism agnostic sequencing technologies offer a promising approach to understand the molecular processes underlying these diseases. Here we apply dual RNA-seq to Orientia tsutsugamushi (Ot), the obligate intracellular causative agent of the vector-borne human disease scrub typhus. Half the Ot genome is composed of repetitive DNA, and there is minimal collinearity in gene order between strains. Integrating RNA-seq, comparative genomics, proteomics, and machine learning, we investigated the transcriptional architecture of Ot, including operon structure and non-coding RNAs, and found evidence for wide-spread post-transcriptional antisense regulation. We compared the host response to two clinical isolates and identified distinct immune response networks that are up-regulated in response to each strain, leading to predictions of relative virulence which were confirmed in a mouse infection model. Thus, dual RNA-seq can reveal the biology and host-pathogen interactions of a poorly characterized and genetically intractable organism such as Ot.
Project description:Total RNA sequencing (SMARTer Stranded Total RNA-Seq Kit v2) data of extracellular RNA (exRNA) from liquid biopsies of a BRC0004PR PDX and SK-N-BE(2C) CDX mouse model, and total RNA sequencing profiles of the matching PDX tumors.
Project description:An equivalent dosage of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell (HucMSC), adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADSC), and SVF was orthotopically administered into a cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) mouse model. The therapeutic impacts were meticulously evaluated employing a suite of assays. The underlying mechanisms were investigated through RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and mass spectrometry, offering insights into the cellular and molecular responses.
Project description:Whole Exome Sequencing of cohorts of Mutant Braf mouse model melanoma DNA and germline DNA. The cohorts are (1) Mutant Braf mouse model melanomas, (2) Mutant Braf mouse model melanomas from UVR exposed mice and (3) Mutant Braf mouse model melanomas from UVR exposed, sunscreen protected mice.
Project description:The first GSSM of V. vinifera was reconstructed (MODEL2408120001). Tissue-specific models for stem, leaf, and berry of the Cabernet Sauvignon cultivar were generated from the original model, through the integration of RNA-Seq data. These models have been merged into diel multi-tissue models to study the interactions between tissues at light and dark phases.
Project description:Whole-exome sequencing (WES) data of tumor-normal pairs from 40 ENKTCL patients and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data of tumors from 20 ENKTCL patients and genetically manipulated cell line (MSN overexpression) and mouse model (MSN conventional knockout) for functional analysis of MSN.
