Project description:Dietary ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are beneficial for humans against the development of hyperlipidaemia, but the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. Here, we demonstrated that oral consumption of sacha inchi oil, which is rich in α-linolenic acid, alleviated dyslipidemia, hepatic steatosis and inflammatory infiltration in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed rats. Sacha inchi oil administration reversed gut microbiota dysbiosis and altered the gut microbiota metabolome and in particular prevented bile acid dysmetabolism caused by a HFD. Sacha inchi oil intake ameliorated hepatic lipid dysmetabolism in HFD-fed rats, via potentiating the biosynthesis and reuptake of bile acids, reducing the de novo lipogenesis, promoting fatty acid beta-oxidation, and alleviating the dysregulation of glycerolipid, glycerophospholipid, and sphingolipid metabolisms. The results showed that dietary sacha inchi oil can alleviate gut microbiota dysbiosis and reduce lipid dysmetabolism in HFD rats, and provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms by which plant-derived ω-3 PUFAs prevent the development of hyperlipidaemia.
Project description:In this study, we examined the consequences of the early stress (ES) of maternal separation on hippocampal gene expression in young adulthood. Young adult (2 months old) ES animals exhibit hippocampal transcriptome changes with a significant regulation of genes associated with intracellular signaling, MAP kinase signaling, plasma membrane function, neurotransmitter and neuropeptide receptors and cytoskeletal components. Agilent one-color experiment, Agilent-024724 Genotypic-designed Custom Rattus Norvegicus 8x15k; Organism: Rattus norvegicus; Labeling kit: Agilent Quick-Amp labeling Kit (p/n5190-0442); Biological replicates: 4 per treatment group.
Project description:Ribosome profiling (Ribo-Seq) (maps positions of translating ribosomes on the transcriptome) and RNA-Seq (quantifies the transcriptome) analysis of Rattus norvegicus cells infected with Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (Mo-MuLV).
Project description:In this study, we examined the consequences of the early stress (ES) of maternal separation on hippocampal gene expression in middle-aged animals. Middle-aged (15 months old) ES animals exhibit hippocampal transcriptome changes with a significant regulation of genes associated with ion binding, transcriptional regulation, cellular projection, cellular stress responsive pathways, neuronal development and chromatin remodeling. Agilent one-color experiment, Agilent-024724 Genotypic-designed Custom Rattus Norvegicus 8x15k; Organism: Rattus norvegicus; Labeling kit: Agilent Quick-Amp labeling Kit (p/n5190-0442); Biological replicates: 5 per early stress group, 3 per control group

Project description:Deep sequencing of mRNA from Spalax galili and Rattus norvegicus Total RNAs were isolated from the brain of female BMRs under various oxygen concentrations (3%, 6%, 10%, 14%, and 21%) for 6 hours. We also got RNAs from the brain of rats under 6%, 10%, 14%, and 21% oxygen conditions.
