Project description:Here we report 16s rRNA data in gut microbiota of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with HBV induced HCC (HBVC) and non-HBV induced HCC (NHBVC) compared with healthy volunteers. A total of 2047 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. Our data shows that the NHBVC patients harbor lower anti-inflammatory bacteria and more pro-inflammatory bacteria, while the HBVC patients harbor more anti-inflammatory bacteria.
Project description:High throughput RNA sequencing For RNA sequencing, F. nucleatum was incubated with 1 mM or 5 mM metformin for 7 hours, when the bacterium were under logarithmic phase. Total RNA of F. nucleatum was stabilized with RNA protect Bacteria Reagent (QIAGEN, Germany) and extracted using a QIAGEN RNeasy kit (QIAGEN, Germany) following the manufacturer’s instructions.
