Project description:Decidualization is critical for the embryonic implantation and successful pregnancy. ATRA can suppress in-vitro decidualization of human endometrial stromal cells (hESCs) induced by MPA and estrogen treatment. However, the mechanism by which RA suppressed estrogen and progesterone induced decidualization of mESCs is not clear. We used microarrays to investigate the mechanism by which all-trans RA (ATRA) regulates the decidualization of endometrial stroma cells (mESCs). mESCs were isolated at day 4 of pseudopregnancy and cultured with administration of E2 and P4 in the presence or absence of ATRA for 72h.

Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility.
Project description:Subcutanesouly tumors from both Bmal1+/+ and Bmal1-/- mice were used to isolated stromal vascular fractions (SVF). Tumor cells with GFP+ signals were exclusive. Remain GFP- cells were collected to do RNAseq.
Project description:We sequenced mRNA from hypoxia treated endometrial stromal fibroblasts and decidual stromal cells in order to better understand endometrial hypoxia responses
