Project description:The goal of the study was to identify regions of differential methylation between e18.5 mouse placentas exposed to cadmium and control placentas.
Project description:Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing was used to assess that changes in intestinal DNA methylation associated with NEC outbreak.
Project description:The aim of the project was to identify the tissue-specific DNA methylation patterns of selected horse tissues, derived from two germ layers, endodermal (liver and lung) and mesenchymal (cardiac striated muscle) origin. The comparative analysis of DNA methylation patterns of the genome fraction rich in CpG dinucleotides was investigated using Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RRBS) technique.
Project description:The aim of the project was to identify sites undergoing changes in methylation level in cancer cells of equine sarcoid. The comparative analysis of DNA methylation patterns of the genome fraction rich in CpG dinucleotides was investigated using Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RRBS) technique. In this study, for the first time we report the genome-wide DNA methylation profile of skin tumour in horses and describe differentially methylated genomic regions with respect to healthy skin.
Project description:We generated two types of DNA methylation datasets (Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing [RRBS] and custom methylation array) from a heterozygous HD knock-in mouse model. The heterozygous Htt knock-in line expressed one wildtype endogenous Htt allele and a second Htt allele with knock-in of human mHTT exon 1 with either approximately 190 CAG repeats (Q175) or 20 CAG repeats (Q20). For each genotype (Q175 and Q20) we analyzed two brain regions (striatum and cerebellum) from 8 mice each on the RRBS platform (N=32 RRBS samples). Our EWAS of mutant Htt gene status (i.e. Q175 status) across the two brain regions identified two genome-wide significant CpGs in Htt region. contributor: CHDI foundation
