Project description:The medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) contains a nearly homogeneous population of neurons, which are innervated by large glutamatergic nerve terminals called calyces of Held (CH). Key steps in maturation of CHs and MNTB neurons, including CH growth and competition, occur very quickly for most cells between postnatal days (P)2 and P6. Therefore, we characterized genome-wide changes in this system, with dense temporal sampling during the first postnatal week. We identified 541 genes whose expression changed significantly between P0-6 and clustered them into eight groups based on temporal expression profiles. Candidate genes from each of the eight profile groups were validated in separate samples by qPCR.
Project description:The emergence of immune resistance variants during immunotherapy is poorly understood. We generated a highly immune resistant cell line (P3) from a susceptible cell line (P0) by subjecting it to 3 rounds of in vivo immune selection. Subsequently, microarray analysis of P0 and P3 was performed to identify genes that may contribute to the increase in immune resistance. Experiment Overall Design: Four experimental replicates were prepared for each cell line. P0 is the control cell line, and P3 is the experimental/resistant cell line.

Project description:Mass spectrometry identification of Trypanosoma brucei bloodstream form proteins that interacts with Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4.
Project description:Female rats were exposed during pregnancy to a normal or low protein diet (as described in Bufffat et al, J. Pathol, 2007 and Zana-Taieb et al, J. Pathol, 2015; Rideau Batista Novais, Glia, 2016), then injected with low doses of interleukin1B (20µg/kg) at P1, for the P4 samples. LPD effects were also addressed at birth (P0) Brains cells were dissociated using the Neural Tissue Dissociation Kit of Miltenyi Biotec,in the presence of papain. Then Magnetic Bead coupled antibody (MACS) was used to sort the cells at P4 or at P0. Microglial cells were sorted using the surface marker CD11b. Transcriptome analysis was carried out on this subset of cells, using triplicates of a pool of three different mRNA samples from each experimental group.
Project description:Purpose: Circular RNA sequencing was used to find out differentially expressed CircRNAs between P0 generation samples and P2 generation samples. Method: chondrocyte CircRNAs profiles of P0 generation samples and P2 generation samples were analyzed.
