Project description:To understand the mechanistic basis of YB-1’s regulation of mRNA splicing in response to DNA damage in Multiple Myeloma, we performed RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and sequencing of ILF2-bound transcripts under both physiological and DNA damage (melphalan treatment) conditions. Cells were treated with melphalan for 10 hours. (RIP) and sequencing of YB-1-bound RNAs was performed in the JJN3 line (two biological replicates/condition).

Project description:Analysis of ex vivo isolated lymphatic endothelial cells from the dermis of patients to define type 2 diabetes-induced changes. Results preveal aberrant dermal lymphangiogenesis and provide insight into its role in the pathogenesis of persistent skin inflammation in type 2 diabetes. The ex vivo dLEC transcriptome reveals a dramatic influence of the T2D environment on multiple molecular and cellular processes, mirroring the phenotypic changes seen in T2D affected skin. The positively and negatively correlated dLEC transcripts directly cohere to prolonged inflammatory periods and reduced infectious resistance of patients´ skin. Further, lymphatic vessels might be involved in tissue remodeling processes during T2D induced skin alterations associated with impaired wound healing and altered dermal architecture. Hence, dermal lymphatic vessels might be directly associated with T2D disease promotion.
