This study aims to investigate the role of microRNA-30c on hepatic and metabolic gene expression and physiology Overall design: For this experiment, we used male C57BL/6 mice. At an age of 8 weeks, we started them on Western diet for one month and then injected them with either PBS or increasing dose of Scr or miR-30c mimic (2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 mg/kg) for 6 weeks. Liver from these mice were harvested and flash frozen. RNA from the livers of these mice were extracted and RNA-seq was performed.

View SamplesCamptothecin (CPT) is a plant alkaloid that specifically binds topoisomerase I (Topo I) inhibiting its activity and inducing double stranded breaks in the DNA, activating the genotoxic cell responses, and ultimately, it might trigger programmed cell death (PCD). We used microarrays to detail the changes in gene expression during as a consequence of CPT treatment in maize immature embryos. In four independent experiments immature embryos were plated on MS medium supplemented with 50 uM CPT and incubated during three days. Untreated embryos incubated on MS medium were used as controls.

View SamplesYoung adult fer-15;fem-1 Caenorhabditis elegans were infected with Staphylococcus aureus for 8 h to determine the transcriptional host response to Staphylococcus aureus. Analysis of differential gene expression in C. elegans young adults exposed to two different bacteria: E. coli strain OP50 (control), wild-type Staphylococcus aureus RN6390. Samples were analyzed at 8 hours after exposure to the different bacteria. These studies identified C. elegans genes induced by pathogen infection.

View SamplesSingle-cell expression profiling is a rich resource of cellular heterogeneity. While profiling every sample under study is advantageous, such workflow is time consuming and costly. We devised CPM - a deconvolution algorithm in which cellular heterogeneity is inferred from bulk expression data based on pre-existing collection of single-cell RNA-seq profiles. We applied CPM to investigate individual variation in heterogeneity of murine lung cells during in vivo influenza virus infection, revealing that the relations between cell quantities and clinical outcomes varies in a gradual manner along the cellular activation process. Validation experiments confirmed these gradual changes along the cellular activation trajectory. Additional analysis suggests that clinical outcomes relate to the rate of cell activation at the early stages of this process. These findings demonstrate the utility of CPM as a mapping deconvolution tool at single-cell resolution, and highlight the importance of such fine cell landscape for understanding diversity of clinical outcomes. Overall design: Lungs gene expression of Collaborative Cross mice taken 48h after the infection with either the influenza virus or PBS.

View SamplesA central challenge in pharmaceutical research is to investigate genetic variation in response to drugs. The Collaborative Cross (CC) mouse reference population is a promising model for pharmacogenomic studies because of its large amount of genetic variation, genetic reproducibility, and dense recombination sites. While the CC lines are phenotypically diverse, their genetic diversity in drug disposition processes, such as detoxification reactions, is still largely uncharacterized. Here we systematically measured RNA-sequencing expression profiles from livers of 29 CC lines under baseline conditions. We then leveraged a reference collection of metabolic biotransformation pathways to map potential relations between drugs and their underlying expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs). By applying this approach on proximal eQTLs, including eQTLs acting on the overall expression of genes and on the expression of particular transcript isoforms, we were able to construct the organization of hepatic eQTL-drug connectivity across the CC population. The analysis revealed a substantial impact of genetic variation acting on drug biotransformation, allowed mapping of potential joint genetic effects in the context of individual drugs, and demonstrated crosstalk between drug metabolism and lipid metabolism. Our findings provide a resource for investigating drug disposition in the CC strains, and offer a new paradigm for integrating biotransformation reactions to corresponding variations in DNA sequences. Overall design: This dataset includes RNA-Seq data of mRNA that were extracted from the liver of 55 male mice. The 55 mice belong to 29 different collaborative cross strains. The number of individual mice per strains is 3 for 3 strains, 2 for 16 strains, and 1 for 8 strains. All the mice are naïve without any special treatment.
