Background The response of macrophages to danger signals is an important early stage in the immune response. Our understanding of this complex event has been furthered by microarray analysis, which allows the simultaneous investigation of the expression of large numbers of genes. However, the mic...
Murine small intestinal organoids were cultured in the presence or absence of 5µM inhibitor MS023 (PubChem CID 92136227), which targets type I protein arginine methyltransferases Prmt1, Prmt3, Prmt4, Prmt6, Prmt8. Organoids were grown in culture media containing EGF, Noggin and R-spondin (ENR), medi...
Most known genetic variation in human genomes has been called from comparison of short reads to the reference genome, an approach biased against finding complex variation. We sequenced 150 individuals from 50 parent-offspring trios with multiple insert-size libraries to very high coverage. We show t...
If copy number variants (CNVs) are predominantly deleterious, we would expect them to be more efficiently purged from populations with a large effective population size (Ne) than from populations with a small Ne. Malaria parasites (Plasmodium falciparum) provide an excellent organism to examine this...
ABSTRACT FOR BOTH PLASMA AND PLATELET-LYSATE In this article we describe the involvement of exchange factor activated by cAMP 1 (Epac1) in hemostasis and platelet activation. We have used plasma and platelet-lysate from EPAC1 knockout mice and wild-type control mice in label-free proteomics with an ...
Murine small intestinal organoids were cultured in the presence or absence of 3µM inhibitor I-CBP112 (PubChem CID 90488984), which targets E1A Binding Protein P300 (Ep300) and Creb-binding protein (Crebbp, Cbp). Organoids were grown in culture media containing EGF, Noggin and R-spondin (ENR), media ...
Rationale: Immortalized cells may exhibit important differences relative to their primary cell counterparts. Microarrays were used compare primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and the immortalized HUVEC cell line EA.hy926, in their response to inhibition of the mevalonate pathway ...
Here we have used a combination of advanced proteomics and genomics approaches to investigate the extent and mechanisms of transcription factor cross-talk at genomic hotspots. We identify ~12,000 transcription factor hotspots in the early phase of adipogenesis, and we find evidence of both simultane...
