Project description:Purposes: To investigate the epigenetic mechanism of IBS-D(Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea) by tRF & tiRNA sequencing in intestinal biopsies of IBS-D patients and healthy volunteers Methods: Five IBS-D and five healthy volunteers were screened, and biopsies were taken under colonoscopy. Small RNA sequencing was performed on Illumina NexSeq instrument Results:If P < 0.05, fold change > 1.5 as the cutoff, there were 14 up-regulated tRFs & tiRNAs and 14 down-regulated tRFs & tiRNAs. Conclusions:There were 14 up-regulated tRFs & tiRNAs and 14 down-regulated tRFs & tiRNAs in intestinal tissues of IBS-D .
Project description:IBS-D is a disease with multi-factor interaction between environment, central system, gut and gene, and its pathogenesis is relatively complex. In order to find the regulation of miRNA in the pathogenesis of IBS-D, intestinal tissue samples of IBS-D patients and healthy subjects were obtained (5 IBS-D patients,5 healthy subjects)， Changes in miRNA expression profiles were detected by high-throughput sequencing.
Project description:A subset of post-infection irritable bowel syndrome (PI-IBS) patients have elevated, or high fecal proteolytic activity (PA). Fecal PA has been shown to correlate with increased symptom severity as well as lower quality of life scores, increased fecal output and increased intestinal permeability. To address the underlying mechanisms of barrier disruption as a consequence of high fecal PA, colonic biopsies were collected from healthy individuals PI-IBS patients (n=11). Individuals diagnosed with PI-IBS were further divided in to 2 subgroups, high PA and low PA as defined by the PA in matched fecal samples. RNA was extracted from the biopsies for bulk RNA sequencing to understand transcriptional differences between healthy and high PA PI-IBS patients as well as high PA and Low PA PI-IBS patients.
Project description:IBS-D is a disease with multi-factor interaction between environment, central system, gut and gene, and its pathogenesis is relatively complex. In order to find the regulation of mRNA in the pathogenesis of IBS-D, intestinal tissue samples of IBS-D patients and healthy subjects were obtained (5 IBS-D patients,5 healthy subjects)， Changes in mRNA expression profiles were detected by high-throughput sequencing.
