Project description:This study was aimed to elucidate a global antigenic profile of Mycoplasma bovis (M. bovis) with immunoproteomics, immunoinformatics, and gene expression approaches. The extracts of whole-cell proteins and TX-114 membrane fraction of a Chinese strain M. bovis HB0801 were separated with two dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and proteins reacting with antisera to M. bovis from experimentally infected calves were detected by MALDI-TOF MS.

Project description:Analysis of H292 cells infected with Mycoplasma hyorhinis. Mycoplasma infection reduces the cytotoxic effect of Nutlin3 on H292 cells. The results provide insight into molecular mechanisms underlying the response of H292 cells to Nutlin3.
Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-protein-coding RNAs that are incorporated into the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) and inhibit gene expression by regulating the stability and/or the translational efficiency of target mRNAs. miR-210 can be considered a master miRNA of hypoxic response and is currently regarded as a promising novel non-invasive tumor hypoxia marker. The targets identified to date indicate that miR-210 plays a role in cell cycle regulation, differentiation, mitochondrial metabolism repression, DNA repair and apoptosis. In order to identify miRNAs sub-sequentely modulated by miR-210, miRNA expression profiles of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) over-expressing miR-210 were generated, allowing the identification of miRNAs modulated upon miR-210 up-regulation. HUVEC over-expressing pre-miR-210 or a scramble sequence were generated by retroviral infection, yielding a selected population that expressed mature miR-210 levels comparable with those observed in hypoxic cells. miRNA expression profiles were then measured and miRNAs modulated upon miR-210 up-regulation were identified. This Sample represents four hybridizations - one of which was a dye-swap.
Project description:Various anti-mycoplasma drugs have different effects on cells growth We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying gastric cancer cells treated with anti-mycoplasma drugs and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during this process.
