Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE27015: Rat model of MTLE: Animals with epilepsy vs animals without epilepsy (Agilent) GSE27166: Rat model of MTLE: Animals with epilepsy vs animals without epilepsy (codelink) Refer to individual Series
Project description:These data assess the levels of microRNAs via miRNA array in brain tissue from control, high pathological controls, and Alzheimer disease subjects curated from the Rush cohort
Project description:Pediatric epilepsy is a neurological condition that causes repeated and unprovoked seizures and is more common in 1–5-year-old children. Drug resistance has been indicated as a key challenge in improving the clinical outcomes of patients with pediatric epilepsy. In the present study, we aimed to identify serum small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived microRNAs (miRNAs) from the serum samples of children for predicting the prognosis in patients with epilepsy and drug-resistant epilepsy
Project description:Comparisons between the sample groups (normal elderly control (NEC) and Alzheimer disease (AD)) allow the identification of genes with disease and gender expression patterns. Keywords: biological repeat
Project description:Microglia activation is a hallmark in Alzheimer Disease. Non-active and Active microglia were isolated from young and aged WT mice and before- and after- pathology mouse models of Alzheimer Disease. Microarray analysis was used to determine the global gene expression programe in microglia during pathological (Abeta or TAU pathology) versus control state.
Project description:Ion channel splice array data collected from temporal neocortex brain tissue collected from patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy. Temporal cortex samples from control subjects were compared to temporal neocortex of patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy
Project description:Global expression profiling of epileptogenesis has been confounded by variability across laboratories, epilepsy models, tissue sampled and experimental platforms, with the result that very few genes demonstrate consistent expression changes. The present study minimizes these confounds by combining Affymetrix microarray datasets from seven laboratories, using three status epilepticus (SE) models of epilepsy in rats (pilocarpine, kainate, self-sustained SE or SSSE) and the rat kindling model. Total RNA was harvested from laser-captured dentate granule cells from 6 rats at three times during the early-to-mid latent phase that precedes epilepsy symptoms in the SE models (1, 3 and 10 days after SE), or 24 hr after the first stage 2, stage 4 and stage 5 seizure in the kindling model. Each epilepsy model was studied in two independent laboratories except SSSE. The initial goals of this study were to a) identify model-independent transcriptional changes in dentate granule cells that could point to novel intervention targets for epileptogenesis, b) characterize the basal transcriptional profile of dentate granule cells, and c) identify genes that have highly variable expression. Each experimental group consists of 6 rats (biological replicates) from one laboratory at a single time point, except for the SSSE group (6 at day 1 after SSSE, 5 controls and at day 3 after SSSE, 4 at day 10). Thus granule cells were harvested from 164 rats.
