Project description:small RNA gene expression profiles of C. elegans in 4 age groups. The RNA-seq data comprise 4 age groups (1, 5, 10 and 20 days after L4). Jena Centre for Systems Biology of Ageing - JenAge (www.jenage.de)
Project description:Cocoa protein content is a very interesting source for isolation of antioxidant bio-peptides, which can be used for the prevention of age-related diseases. We use microarrays to study the global genome expression of C. elegans fed with a peptide (13L) isolated from cocoa.
Project description:Comparison of small RNA expression profiles from C. elegans of Rotenone and Dimethylsulfoxid (DMSO) treated animals. The RNA-seq data comprise two age groups (5 and 15 days) and two different conditions (rotenone, DMSO). Jena Centre for Systems Biology of Ageing - JenAge (www.jenage.de)
Project description:Cocoa protein content is a very interesting source for isolation of antioxidant bio-peptides, which can be used for the prevention of age-related diseases. We use microarrays to study the global genome expression of C. elegans fed with a peptide (13L) isolated from cocoa. Wild type strain N2 of C. elegans was fed with 1 µg/mL of 13L peptide or in Nematode Growth medium (MGM, control fed) until reach young adult stage. Worm population were age-synchronized. RNA was isolated from each populations (control and treated) using RNAasy Kit (Qiagen) and hybridizated on Affymetrix microarrays.
