Project description:To determine the molecular basis for the dual oxidase in circulation in duox mutant zebrafish, we performed high-throughput sequencing at 4 dpf. Results revealed 375 up-regulated genes and 360 down-regulated genes in the duox mutant zebrafish compared with wild-type zebrafish. We found that some mitochondrial genes are down-regulated in duox mutant zebrafish, which was reconfirmed with qRT-PCR.
Project description:To determine the molecular basis for the reduced blood cells in circulation in ezh2 mutant zebrafish, we performed high-throughput sequencing at 28 hpf. Results revealed 893 up-regulated genes and 425 down-regulated genes in the ezh2 mutant zebrafish compared with wild-type zebrafish. We found that some hematopoietic genes are down-regulated in ezh2 mutant zebrafish, which was reconfirmed with qRT-PCR.
Project description:We generated a 16 nucleotide deletion mutant in the zebrafish fbln1 gene and we compared the whole larvae transcriptome to wt siblings in 10dpf larvae.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of 3dpf wild type zebrafish larvae treated with 20mM PTZ for 30 and 90 minutes compared with 3dpf wild type control untreated zebrafish larvae.
Project description:In this work we investigated how the brain proteome of the larval zebrafish is modified by behavioral adaptation to the environmental challenge of a water vortex. We monitored the behavior of larvae and observed that they behaviorally adapted to the presence of a water vortex. We obtained the larval zebrafish brain proteome by extracting brains from zebrafish larvae and analyzing them using and LFQ-based LC-MS/MS-approach. In total we identified 5929 proteins in the larval brain. Within this proteome, we identified 57 proteins that were significantly regulated following experience of the water vortex: 41 proteins were up regulated and 16 were down regulated. Of these, 29 proteins are known to have neuronal functions, 17 proteins are known to have other cellular functions, and 11 proteins are still uncharacterized.
