Project description:In fish, the sex determining mechanisms can broadly be classified as genotypic (GSD), temperature-dependent (TSD), or genotypic plus temperature effects (GSD+TE). For the fish species with TSD or GSD+TE, extremely high or low temperature can affect its sex determination and differentiation. For long time, the underlying changes in DNA methylation that occur during high or low temperature induced sex reversal have not been fully clarified. In this study, we used Nile tilapia as a model to perform a genome-wide survey of differences in DNA methylation in female and male gonads between control and high temperature induced groups using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP). We identified the high temperature induction-related differentially methylated regions (DMRs), and performed functional enrichment analysis for genes exhibiting DMR. These identified differentially methylated genes were potentially involved in the connection between environmental temperature and sex reversal in Nile tilapia. In this study, four samples (control females, CF; control males, CM; induced females, IF; induced males, IM) were analyzed.

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) lacks therapeutic target and is difficult to treat. We report a cationic antimicrobial peptide (CAP), tilapia piscidin 4 (TP4), derived from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), selectively toxic to TNBC. Here we aim to identify potential target in TNBC cell response to TP4 treatment by microarray study and to further address the role of TP4-resposive genes involved in TNBC cell death.

Project description:Streptococcus agalactiae (Lancefield’s group B Streptococcus, GBS) is a major bacterial species of genus Streptococcus and has medical and veterinary importance by affecting mainly humans (Maione et al., 2005; Johri et al., 2006), cattle (Keefe, 1997) and fish (Mian et al., 2009). The GBS is the most important pathogen for the Nile tilapia, a global commodity of the aquaculture sector, causing outbreaks of septicemia and meningoencephalitis (Hernández et al., 2009; Mian et al., 2009).
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation profiling of 6 isolated single cell clones and the parental (SUM149-PT) cell line. The Illumina Infinium Human MethylationEPIC Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation profiles across approximately 850,000 CpGs in 6 isolated single cell clones that represent the phenotypes of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal spectrum along with the parental (SUM149-PT) cell line. Isolated single cell clones represent varying phenotypes of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Detailed isolation and characterization methods can be found in Brown et al, 2021. https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.03.17.434993
