Previously we have shown that extravillous cytotrophoblast (EVT) outgrowth and migration on a collagen gel explant model were restricted by exposure to decidual natural killer cells (dNK). This study investigates the molecular causes behind this phenomenon. Genome wide DNA methylation of exposed and...
HCT116 parental, HCT116 5-FU resistant and HCT116 oxaliplatin resistant cells have been transiently treated with with their respective drug (5-FU or oxaliplatin) for 0, 6 12 or 24h in 3 independent experiments.
Pre-treatment metastatic (liver) biopsies were harvested prior to 5-FU and oxaliplatin therapy. CT imaging for response evaluation using WHO criteria was performed every 6 weeks.
Multipotential naïve CD4+ T cells differentiate into distinct lineages including Th1, Th2, Th17, and inducible T regulatory (iTreg) cells. The remarkable diversity of CD4+ T cells begs the question whether the observed changes reflect terminal differentiation with heritable epigenetic modifications ...
small RNA profiles of 6 human tonsillar B cell populatios (naive B cells, pre-germinal center B cells, centrocytes, centroblasts, memory B cells, and plasma cells) were determined by deep sequencing. These samples were compared to mouse developing lymphocytes, various hematopoietic cell lineages, a...
Although the cellular concentration of miRNAs is critical to their function, how miRNA expression and abundance are regulated during ontogeny is unclear. We used deep-sequencing to characterize the microRNome from most developing lymphocytes, various hematopoietic cell lineages, and representative m...
Cases with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) in the UK, were part of the Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium (WTCCC) - http://www.wtccc.org.uk - that first reported in 2007:
Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium (2007) Genome-wide association s...
Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a common, disabling mental illness with high heritability but complex, poorly understood genetic etiology. As the first phase of a genomic convergence analysis of SCZ, we generated 16.7 billion nucleotides of short read, shotgun sequences of cDNA from post-mortem cerebellar c...
