Project description:The goal was to measure the postprandial effect of an oat bran meal on gene expression in leukocytes from healthy subjects and to investigate the postprandial glucose, insulin and triglyceride responses. Linear mixed models were used for the array data to study the simultaneous dependency on many factors and functional categories of genes whose expression were correlated with oat bran intake were determined.
Project description:Here comparative transcriptomic analyses of Penicillium oxalicum grown on wheat bran (WB), WB plus rice straw (WR) and WB plus Avicel (WA) as the sole carbon source under solid-state fermentation (SSF) revealed that most of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were involved in metabolism specifically carbohydrate metabolism.
