Project description:Background: The number of red blood cells (RBCs) increases significantly in response to high-altitude hypoxic environments, and the RBC microRNA (miRNA) expression pattern is similar to that in whole blood. Studies have shown that miRNA in plasma can act as a circulating hypoxia-associated marker, but the effect of a high-altitude hypoxic environment on RBC-derived miRNAs has not yet been reported. Methods: Blood samples were collected from 20 Han Chinese individuals residing at 500 m (Sichuan Han), 10 migrant Han Chinese citizens residing at 3658 m (Tibet Han) and 12 native Tibetans, and RBC indices measurements and miRNA sequencing analyses were performed for the three sample groups. The levels of some markedly altered miRNAs at high altitude were subsequently measured from 5 randomly selected samples of each group by real-time PCR. Bioinformatic analyses was performed to determine the potential target genes of selected hypoxia-associated miRNAs. Results: Marked changes of several RBC indices were observed among the Tibet Han population, the Tibetan population and the Sichuan Han population. A total of 516 miRNAs derived from RBCs were initially identified by miRNA sequencing in the three sample groups. Compared with the Sichuan Han population, 49 miRNAs were differentially expressed in the Tibet Han population (17 upregulated and 32 downregulated). 12 upregulated and 21 downregulated miRNAs were observed in the Tibetan population compared with the Sichuan Han population. A total of 40 RBC miRNAs were differentially expressed in the Tibetan population (15 upregulated and 25 downregulated) compared with the Tibet Han population. Two significantly altered miRNAs with the highest expression levels (miRNA-144-5p and miR-30b-5p) were selected for real-time PCR analysis, and the results were consistent with those of miRNA sequencing. Furthermore, bioinformatic analyses showed that some potential target genes of miR-144-5p and miR-30b-5p are involved in the erythroid- hypoxia-, and nitric oxide (NO)-related signaling pathways in response to hypoxia. Conclusion: Our findings provide clear evidence, for the first time, that a high-altitude hypoxic environment significantly affects human RBC miRNA profiles.

Project description:RATIONALE: Giving high doses of chemotherapy drugs, such as busulfan and cyclophosphamide, before a donor bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient’s immune system from rejecting the donor’s stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient’s bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body’s normal cells. Giving cyclosporine, methylprednisolone, and methotrexate after transplant may stop this from happening.
PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies high-dose busulfan and high-dose cyclophosphamide followed by donor bone marrow transplant in treating patients with leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, multiple myeloma, or recurrent Hodgkin or Non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Project description:Purpose: To identify the key regulatory genes and pathways involved in chicken high egg productivon in HPG axis. Methods: A total of 856 Chinese Luhua chicken was raised in poultry breeding farm of Sichuan Agricultural University, the highest two hundred and the lowest two hundred chicken egg production were considered as high egg production (HEP) and low egg production (LEP) according to the total egg number at 300 days of age, respectively, integrated with RNA-seq sequencing of samples of HPG axis (hypothalamus, pituitary gland and ovary) from three HEP and three LEP chickens at 300 days of age. Results: A total 86.7 Gb RNA-seq sequences were generated, and with each library averaged 5.1 Gb. Conclusions: These important data might improve our understanding of reproductive biology of Luhua chicken by providing comprehensive gene expression information at transcriptional level. We indicate that our approach will contribute to the isolation of effective molecular markers that can be used in genetic breeding programs in Chinese domestic Luhua chicken.

Project description:This pilot clinical trial studies low-dose total body irradiation and donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant followed by donor lymphocyte infusion in treatment patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or multiple myeloma. Giving total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient’s bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Once the donated stem cells begin working, the patient’s immune system may see the remaining cancer cells as not belonging in the patient’s body and destroy them. Giving an infusion of the donor’s white blood cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) may boost this effect.

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are myeloid hematopoietic stem cell tumors displaying complex pathogenesis with a high risk of transformation to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The efficacy of current clinical drugs is limited. Thus, identifying high-efficiency drugs of MDS remain urgent. Celastrol, a natural small molecule compound derived from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Tripterygium wilfordii, has shown powerful antitumor effects. However, the effects of celastrol on MDS are unknown. In this study, we found that celastrol significantly inhibited the viability of MDS cell lines and bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMCs) from MDS patients, and induced apoptosis. Through transcriptome sequencing, we found that celastrol induced the pro-apoptotic ER stress response in MDS cell. Mechanistically, celastrol activated the pro-apoptotic ER-stress branch involving the pancreatic eIF2α kinase (PERK) pathway.
