Project description:We performed RNA sequencing analyses of adult mouse bone marrow endothelial cells. Especially, we investigated gene expression profiling of endothelial cells before and after lethal irradiation or hematopoietic cell depletion. We also analyzed mouse bone marrow endothelial cell subtypes, Apln+ and diaphyseal endothelial cells. Whole bone marrow cells, lineage negative hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, Lin- Sca1+ cKit+ cells were used as controls for the differential gene expression analyses.
Project description:Cellular sources of liver endothelial cells remain elusive. Here, we used irradiation-conditioned bone marrow chimeric mice to lineage trace the endothelial cells. Bone marrow-derived (YFP+) and resident (YFP-) liver endothelial cells were isolated and total RNA were used for microarray analysis using Clariom S mouse assays (Applied Biosystems).
Project description:Single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) was used to profile the transcriptome of 16,015 nuclei in human adult testis. This dataset includes five samples from two different individuals. This dataset is part of a larger evolutionary study of adult testis at the single-nucleus level (97,521 single-nuclei in total) across mammals including 10 representatives of the three main mammalian lineages: human, chimpanzee, bonobo, gorilla, gibbon, rhesus macaque, marmoset, mouse (placental mammals); grey short-tailed opossum (marsupials); and platypus (egg-laying monotremes). Corresponding data were generated for a bird (red junglefowl, the progenitor of domestic chicken), to be used as an evolutionary outgroup.
Project description:Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease characterized by airway inflammation and remodeling. The role of 15-oxo-5Z,8Z,11Z,13E-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-oxoETE), a 15-HETE metabolite catalyzed by 15-prostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH), has been relatively unexplored in asthma. In this study, we used RNA-seq to explore the effect of 15-KETE on the transcriptome of airway epithelial cells, aiming to identify its potential downstream targets and mechanisms of action.
Project description:1,322 morphologically unidentified fragmentary bone specimens were analyzed using MALDI-TOF and a subset of 341 bone specimens with LC-MS/MS in order to characterize their proteome for species identification and potential hominin specimens related to the LRJ transitional period derived from the site Ilsenhöhle Ranis, Germany (50°39.7563’N, 11°33.9139’E).
