Project description:Transcriptional profiling of plasma exosomes came from SD rats that underwent subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and sham operation (Sham) rats. The goal was to identify the changes of RNA in plasma exosomes after subarachnoid hemorrhage in SD rats.
Project description:The diagnosis of cerebral vasospasm after Subarachnoid-Hemorrhage is currently very difficult, additional tools such as blood biomarkers are necessary. We tested the ability of gene expression profiles of blood cells to predict vasospasm.
Project description:In the present study we aimed to investigate the systemic response to a rupture of intracranial aneurysms by an analysis of global gene expression profiles in peripheral blood cells. In addition, we sought to determine whether this approach could provide biomarkers related to clinical status of subarachnoid hemorrhage patients. Patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage from ruptured aneurysm were prospectively recruited from patients consecutively admitted to the Departments of Neurology or Neurosurgery and Neurotraumatology, University Hospital, Krakow, Poland in 2010 and 2011. Control subjects were recruited from patients of the Department of Neurology suffered from headaches.
Project description:Rabbit heart gene expression in Left ventricle (LV) following banding of the descending thoracic aorta (AOB-LV) vs Sham-control LV and in Right ventricle (RV) following banding the pulmonary artery (PAB-RV) vs. Sham-control RV
