Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of OSCC tissue samples, oral lichen planus tissue samples and normal controls. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 480,000 CpGs. Samples included 15 OSCC, 8 lichen planus and 18 control samples.
Project description:Comparing gene expression in Oral and genital lichen planus with normal oral and genital epithelium trying to idenitfy differently expressed genes in lichen planus compared to normal epithelium Total RNA obtained from oral and genital lichen planus epithelium compared with normal oral and genital epithelium
Project description:In this study, we compared microRNA (miRNA) profiles of salivary exosomes of patients with oral lichen planus with those of healthy controls. Saliva samples from 16 patients with oral lichen planus and 8 healthy controls were divided into 2 sets and were examined by performing miRNA microarray analysis.

Project description:The Zika outbreak, spread by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, highlights the need to create high-quality assemblies of large genomes in a rapid and cost-effective fashion. Here, we combine Hi-C data with existing draft assemblies to generate chromosome-length scaffolds. We validate this method by assembling a human genome, de novo, from short reads alone (67X coverage, Sample GSM1551550). We then combine our method with draft sequences to create genome assemblies of the mosquito disease vectors Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus, each consisting of three scaffolds corresponding to the three chromosomes in each species. These assemblies indicate that virtually all genomic rearrangements among these species occur within, rather than between, chromosome arms. The genome assembly procedure we describe is fast, inexpensive, accurate, and can be applied to many species.
Project description:We compared the transcriptomes of tissues from Oral lichen planus patients with immunosuppressive therapy to reveal the biological mechanism of oral lichen planus treatment.
