Project description:Regulatory Mechanisms of Atrial Remodeling of Mitral Regurgitation Pigs This study enrolled 6 pigs (age: 18 months) and divided into three groups: mitral regurgitation pigs (MR) (n = 2; 2 males sacrificed 12 months after surgery), MR pigs treated with valsartan (MRV) (n = 2; 2 males age-matched to MR sacrificed 12 months after surgery), and normal control pigs (NC) (n = 2; 2 males age-matched to MR pigs). Valsartan (3.43 mg/kg/day), a type I angiotensin II receptor blocker, was administered from one week before surgery and then daily after surgery in the MRV group. We sought to systemically elucidate critical differences in the alteration of RNA expression pattern between the atrial myocardium of pigs with and without MR, and between the atrial myocardium of MR pigs with and without valsartan using high-density oligonucleotide microarrays and functional network enrichment analysis.
Project description:Gene expression of characteristic chondrogenic markers and miRNA expression were analyzed in cells cultured in differentiation medium and significant differences were found between gelation/PRP microgels and those containing only pure gelatin. We used microarrays to detail the miRNA expression in studied cell cultures for identification the expression of miRNA and study the up- and down-regulated miRNA associated.
Project description:Minipigs are animal models widely used in biomedical studies due to their physiological and anatomical similarities to humans. However, a comprehensive resource for the Korean minipig (Sus scrofa) transcriptome remains unavailable. In this study, we constructed a de novo transcriptome of the Korean minipig using RNA-seq data obtained from ten tissues across ten samples. The final assembly comprised 57,085 coding transcripts with an average length of 3,075 nucleotides and an N50 of 4,258 nucleotides. In total, 65.4% of the transcripts were annotated, and biological functions were assigned. Transcript expression profiling and principal component analysis showed that samples clustered by tissue type, reflecting transcriptomic features shared across tissues. Comparative analysis demonstrated that the novel transcriptome assembly had contiguity and completeness comparable to those available for pig and minipig breeds. Overall, this study provides a comprehensive transcriptomic resource for the Korean minipig, facilitating further functional analyses.
