Project description:To study the gene expression profiles of brown (BAT) and white (WAT) adipose tissues in wild type and LR11-deficeint mice. The four RNA sources, WT scWAT, Lr11 -/- scWAT, WT BAT and Lr11 -/- BAT, were prepared from subcutaneous WAT and BAT from wild-type mice and Lr11 -/- mice, respectively (n=3 each).
Project description:We compared the proteomic profile of blood plasma in healthy and white-nose syndrome affected Myotis lucifugus in order to identify patho-physiological changes associated with the disease. Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry we identified differentially expressed proteins for acute phase response, constitutive and adaptive immunity, oxidative stress defense, metabolism and structural proteins of exosomes and desmosomes, suggesting a systemic response against Pseudogymnoascus destructans infection in a North American bat species.

Project description:Transcriptome response to white-nose syndrome varies among bat species
Project description:RNA was extracted from the meninges of mice from either Specific pathogen free or Germ free facilities or from the offspring of mice reconstituted with different human microbiomes.
Project description:This dataset is provided in support of the identification of a collagen-degrading enzyme secreted by the fungus P. destructans. P. destructans is responsible for the disease white nose syndrome, which has infected and killed millions of North American bats. Our manuscript, titled "Destructin-1 is a Collagen-Degrading Endopeptidase Secreted by P. destructans, the Causative Agent of White-Nose Syndrome", is under review, and the data set will be released upon acceptance.
