Project description:Identification of cyclical expressed coding and non-coding genes during the circadian rhythm in NIH3T3 cells. NIH3T3 cells were synchronized for their circadian rhythm and RNA sequencing were performed at several time points along the rhythm. This data was used to identify cyclical expressed genes as well as long intergenic non-coding RNAs.
Project description:Identification of cyclical expressed coding and non-coding genes during the circadian rhythm in NIH3T3 cells. NIH3T3 cells were synchronized for their circadian rhythm and RNA sequencing were performed at several time points along the rhythm. This data was used to identify cyclical expressed genes as well as long intergenic non-coding RNAs. NIH3T3 cells were synchronized with 100 nM Dexamethasone for 2 hours, then medium was changed to normal culture medium (0h). Every 4 hours cells were harvested, RNA isolated and RNAseq performed.

Project description:NZB/WF1 female mice spontaneously develop autoimmune lupus nephritis. Expression profiling of kidney tissue from (a) 12 week NZB/W F1 female mice defined as asymptomatic for lupus nephritis, (b) 36 and 42 week NZB/W F1 female mice defined as diseased/symptomatic for lupus nephritis and (c) 36 and 42 week NZB/W F1 female mice that are diseased/symptomatic for lupus nephritis and treated with Sirolimus was carried out. The goal of the study was to identify genes associated with lupus nephritis and modulated by Sirolimus, an inhibitor of mTOR. In addition, lupus nephritis genes resistant to Sirolimus therapy were also identfied This series of samples comprises of kidney tissue from (a) 12 week old NZB/W F1 female mice defined as asymptomatic for lupus nephritis (N=4), (b) 36 (N=3) and 42 week (N=3) old NZB/W F1 female mice defined as diseased/symptomatic for lupus nephritis and (c) 36 (N=3)and 42 (N=3) week old NZB/W F1 female mice that are asymptomatic for lupus nephritis on treatment with Sirolimus
