Project description:Genome-Scale draft model for Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs). A GEM for PBMCs was developed by applying the INIT
algorithm on Human Metabolic Reconstruction (HMR 2.0) as a template model. GEMs were contextualised/ constrained for different conditions using expression datasets. The gene/transcript expression data obtained from PBMCs of Type 1 Diabetes progressors, non-progressors, and healthy controls were employed to score each reaction of HMR 2.0.

Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
