Project description:Embryonic kidney (metanephros) is known to mature after in vivo transplantation. We used scRNA-seq to analyze the maturity of embryonic kidney cells after transplantation.
Project description:Diabetes mellitus (DM) after transplantation remains a crucial clinical problem in kidney transplantation. To obtain insights into molecular mechanisms underlying the development of post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) and its early impact on glomerular structures, here we comparatively analyze the proteome of histologically normal appearing glomeruli from patients with PTDM from normoglycemic (NG) transplant recipients, and from recipients with pre-existing type 2 DM (PTDM)
Project description:The goal of this experiment was to compare the transcriptome of transplanted mouse ESC-derived cells and endogenous epithelial cells at 15 weeks post transplantation into a syngeneic wild type recipient. In addition these cells were compared to ESC-derived and primary mouse tip-like cells grown in culture, to determine how cultured cells changed followeing transplantation.
Project description:Determination of chromatin accessibility in hematopoietic stem cell progenitors (LSK) of Jak2VF-emp-Cas9 and Jak2VF-Dnmt3a-Cas9 8 weeks post transplantation.
Project description:Determination of differentially expressed genes from in vivo hematopoietic stem cell progenitors (LSK) in Jak2VF-emp-Cas9 and Jak2VF-Dnmt3a-Cas9 8 weeks post transplantation.
Project description:Single cell RNA-seq data was obtained from FACS sorted microglia from different brain regions of normal embryonic, 3 weeks and 16 weeks old CD1 mice in order to elucidate microglia heterogeneity in a regional and time specific manner.
Project description:BackgroundHuman cytomegalovirus (CMV) can establish a latent infection with periodic or sporadic reactivation after the first infection happens. Primary and recurrent infection, results in different problems in patients with impaired or immature immune systems, such as kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). MicroRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) are important regulatory molecules in the outcome of CMV-infected KTRs. Therefore, in this study the expression level of CMV miRNAs were evaluated in active vs. latent CMV infected KTRs.MethodsExpression of viral miRNAs were studied in 61 KTRs which were divided into 30 active CMV and 31 latent CMV infected individuals. In order to study the expression level of selected miRNAs, SYBR Green Real-time PCR technique was exploited. Also, mature miRNAs expression level that were produced from one precursor, studied both in active and latent situations.ResultsAmong studied miRNAs' expression level, CMV miR-UL112-3p/5p, -UL22A-3p/5p, -US25-1-5p, -US25-2-3p/5p, -UL36-3p/5p and -UL70-3p showed significant increase in active CMV infected KTRs in comparison to latent ones. The ROC curve analysis results for miR-UL112-3p, -UL22A-3p, -US25-2-3p, -UL36-3p and -UL70-3p showed significant difference between two studied patient groups.ConclusionThis study revealed an extremely high expression level in CMV miR-UL112-3p/5p, -UL22A-3p/5p, -US25-1-5p, -US25-2-3p/5p, -UL36-3p/5p and -UL70-3p in active CMV infected KTRs in comparison to latent ones. Further studies might help in finding the capability of miRNAs to differentiate active from latent stage of CMV infection in KTRs.
