ABSTRACT: MicroRNA Profiling in Mucosal Biopsies of Eosinophilic Esophagitis Patients Pre and Post Glucocorticoid Steroid Treatment and Relationship with mRNA Target Expression
Project description:Nanostring nCounter Human miRNA assay (v1) of esophageal mucosal biopsies from children with eosinophilic esophagitis and controls Individual esophageal mucosal biopsies from children with eosinoniphilic esophagitis and controls were analysed for detection of microRNA
Project description:To uncover molecular drivers of Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE), a global proteome screen of the esophageal biopsies from individuals with and without EoE was performed.
Project description:Eosinophlic esophagitis (EoE) is increasely recognized as an antigen-drived disorder. The goal of this study is to reveal the gene expression changes in EoE before and after a successful glucocorticoid steroid treatment. We used microarrays to identify distinct genes involving the pathophysiology of EoE. Esophageal mRNA from the epithelial layers of 5 paired paraffin-embedded biopsies before and after treatment with glucocorticosteroids were harvested and profiled using Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST array to generate differentially regulated mRNA transcripts.
Project description:Serum from children with active and inactive treated eosinophilic esophagitis was analyzed for detection of microRNA Individual serum samples from children with eosinophilic esophagitis were analyzed for detection of microRNA. (n=5 for active EoE and n=5 for inactive EoE)
Project description:To investigate gene expression signature of the human esophageal epithelium at the homeostatic and inflammatory conditions we performed scRNAseq on the human esophageal biopsies obtained from the healhy patients, patients with active eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and patients in the remission.
Project description:Eosinophlic esophagitis (EoE) is increasely recognized as an antigen-drived disorder. The goal of this study is to reveal the miRNA expression changes in EoE before and after a successful glucocorticoid steroid treatment.
Project description:3 eosinophilic esophagitis biopsies, cultured and stimulated with IL-13 : each of them was either left unstimulated or stimulated (100ng for 48h) We used microarray to uncover the IL-13-induced genes in esophageal epithelial cells of the esophagus Keywords: treated vs non treated
