Project description:This experiment is contains cow organism part samples and strand-specific RNA-seq data from experiment E-GEOD-41637 (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-41637/), which aimed at assessing tissue-specific transcriptome variation across mammals, with chicken used as an outgroup in evolutionary analyses. Each organism part was sourced from three different animals as biological replicates. This data set was originally submitted to NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus under accession number GSE41637 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE41637) and later imported to ArrayExpress as E-GEOD-41637.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of bovine CD14+ cells comparing endometrial CD14+ cell with blood CD14+ cells from the same pregnant cow . Enzymatically dispersed stromal endometrial cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells from the same cow were labelled using CD14 antibody as a maker. The labeling with CD14 makes possible the soring of those CD14 cells by FACS. Goal was to determine the effects of pregnancy and the location of CD14+ on global CD14+ cells gene expression.
Project description:This project tested the use of a volumemetric absorptive microsampling device as a substrate to prepare whole blood for proteomic analysis by LC-MS. We demonstrated that VAMS are a useful substrate to trap proteins from blood, wash them to reduce highly abundant protein species which enabled single shot LC-MS. This led to the detection of more than 1600 proteins in a single run. We further tested different washing reagents and compared VAMS against paper DBS. Finally, we demonstrated an application of using VAMS to prepare archival, frozen whole blood cell pellets from non-small cell lung cancer patients for biomarker studies.
Project description:Twelve midlactation cows received 4 diets differing in forage-to-concentrate ration (High (HF) versus Low (LF) forage supplemented or not with lipids (HF with whole intact rapeseeds (HF-RS) and LF with sunflower oil (LF-SO)) 12 cows got into 4 groups, each cow was received 4 different diets in a latin square design Green*txt and Red_*txt raw data files contain Cy3 and Cy5 signal intensities, respectively.
Project description:We investigated miRNA expression in Holstein dairy cow of mammary gland with different producing quality milk using high-throughput sequence and qRT-PCR techniques. miRNA libraries were constructed from mammary gland tissues taken from a high producing quality milk and a low producing quality milk Holstein dairy cow, the small RNA digitalization analysis based on HiSeq high-throughput sequencing takes the SBS-sequencing by synthesis.The libraries included 4732 miRNAs. A total of 124 miRNAs in the high producing quality milk mammary gland showed significant differences in expression compared to low producing quality milk mammary gland (P<0.05). Conclusion: Our study provides a broad view of the bovine mammary gland small RNA expression profile characteristics. Differences in types and expression levels of miRNAs were observed between high producing quality milk and a low producing quality milk Holstein dairy cow
