Project description:Transcriptome analysis of Sodalis glossinidius derived from uninfected (controls) and Trypanosoma brucei gambiense infection self cleared Glossina palpalis gambiensis. 10 days after infectived blood meal, flies anal drop were analysed by PCR to isolate the infected self cleared flies. Then, uninfected (controls) and infection self cleared 10 days-flies midgut were dissected for RNA extraction. Total RNAs were extracted from 8 samples including: 4 control and 4 infection self-cleared flies.

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of Sodalis glossinidius derived from Trypanosoma brucei gambiense infection self cleared and infected Glossina palpalis gambiensis. At 3 time points (3, 10 and 20 days) after infectived blood meal, flies were analysed by PCR to isolate the infected and infection self cleared flies. Then, infected and infection self cleared flies midgut were dissected for RNA extraction.

Then, infected and infection self cleared flies midgut were dissected for RNA extraction. Total RNAs were extracted at 3 time points (3, 10 and 20 days) from 24 samples including, for each time, 4 infected and 4 infection self-cleared flies.
Project description:Transmission of Trypanosoma brucei by tsetse flies involves the deposition of the infective quiescent metacyclic stage into the mammalian skin at the site of the fly’s bite. In the skin, the metacyclic parasites reactivate and differentiate into proliferative trypanosomes before colonizing the host's blood and tissues. We have generated an advanced human skin equivalent and used tsetse flies to naturally infect the artificial skin with trypanosomes. We have detailed the chronological order of the parasites' development in the skin and found a rapid activation and differentiation of the tsetse-transmitted cell cycle‑arrested metacyclic trypanosomes to proliferative parasites. Single-parasite transcriptomics documented the biological events during differentiation and host invasion at five different time points. After the establishment of a proliferative trypanosome population in the skin, the parasites entered a reversible quiescence program characterized by slow replication and a strongly reduced metabolism. We termed these quiescent trypanosomes skin tissue forms (STF), which may play an important role in maintaining the trypanosome infection in aparasitemic, asymptomatic individuals.
Project description:In this study, we aim to investigate the value of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis in the diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance of patients with surgically resectable colorectal cancer, by performing serial analysis of ctDNA, next-generation sequencing of surgical specimens, and observation of patients undergoing radical resection of the tumor with or without adjuvant chemo- and/or radiotherapy.

Project description:Mosquitoes are the most notorious hematophagous insects and due to their blood feeding behavior and genetic compatibility, numerous mosquito species are highly efficient vectors for certain human pathogenic parasites and viruses. The mosquito midgut is the principal organ of blood meal digestion and nutrient absorption. It is also the initial site of infection with blood meal acquired parasites and viruses. We conducted an analysis based on single-nucleus RNA sequencing(snRNA-Seq) to assess the cellular diversity of the midgut and how individual cells respond to blood meal ingestion to facilitate its digestion.
