Project description:To find the differences in innate immune response between nonpathogenic and pathogenic SIV infection, we examined transcriptome in PBMCs from macaques infected with pathogenic or nonpathogenic SIV.
Project description:Listeria monocytogenes is an important food-borne pathogen that is responsible for contamination of a variety of food products. It causes listeriosis which is one of the most severe and serious diseases whose symptoms might include nausea and diarrhea. Also because of its ability to adhere to industrials’ surfaces, it is difficult for them to come up against this danger. Although there are researches in L. monocytogenes proteome, most of them are based on the study of a single strain, yet little is known about the proteome of more of the microbe’s strains. By studying the proteome of the microorganism with state-of-the-art mass spectrometry technology in terms of proteomics, we will be able to have an overall picture of the pathogenicity of the bacterium, as this is largely based on its ability to adapt to certain environments and to project its toxicity in them. To address that we provide a dataset of 2227 different proteins from 4 strains of L. monocytogenes, grouped by their molecular function and their biological process. The identified proteins confirm the complex molecular mechanisms of the bacterium.
Project description:To find the differences in innate immune response between nonpathogenic and pathogenic SIV infection, we examined transcriptome in PBMCs from macques infected with pathogenic or nonpathogenic SIV. Juvenile macaques were intavenousy infected with SIVmac239 or M-bM-^HM-^F5G. Blood samples were collected at 1 week and 3 weeks pi. Total RNA from the PBMCs were used for the microarray analysis.
