Project description:Innate immunity is the first line of defense against viral and microbial pathogens. BMDC is critical for innate immunity. To investigate the complicated net signaling after virus invasion, we did a cDNA microarray analysis of BMDC with or without Sendai Virus infection. We used microarrays to find proteins that upregulated by Sendai Virus infection and investigated if these proteins had functions in regulating Sendai Virus induced signaling pathway. BMDC cells are seperated from C57BL6 mice, infected with Sendai Virus or not,cultured and harveseted for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays

Project description:Quantification of MHC-peptide abundance (and source protein expression) during timecourse of infection of various cell lines (primary (BMDC) and immortalised (DC2.4) dendritic cells; primary (PMF) and immortalised fibroblasts (MC57G)) with vaccinia virus strain Western Reserve.
Project description:The goal of this experiment was to determine gene expression changes during Sendai virus infection as the result of expression or inhibition of miR-203 in A549 cells. The gene expression profiling experiment was performed with 4 groups (mock infected, Sendai virus infected, Sendai virus infeceted in the presence of exogenous miR-203, and Sendai virus infected in the presence of miR-203 inhibitor) with 3 biological replicates for each group. Total RNA was purified from A549 cells that were mock infected or infected with Sendai virus (Cantell strain, 5pfu/cell) alone or in the presence of miR-203 mimic or inhibitor for 10 hours.
Project description:Small RNAs were profiled during Sendai virus infection of human A549 cells to identify changes in microRNA abundance during the cellular antiviral response. Examination of microRNA abundance during Sendai virus infection.
Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility.
