View SamplesThe adenosine 2A receptor (A2AR) is expressed on regulatory T cells (Tregs), but the functional significance is currently unknown. We compared the gene expression between wild-type (WT) and A2AR knockout (KO) Tregs and between WT Tregs treated with vehicle or a selective A2AR agonist.
Autocrine adenosine signaling promotes regulatory T cell-mediated renal protection.

View SamplesAbiotic stresses like drought, salinity, high and low temperature, and submergence are major factors that limit the crop productivity. Hence, identification of genes associated with stress response in crops is a prerequisite for improving their tolerance to adverse environmental conditions. In this study, we have analyzed the expression profiles of three genotypes WT, TaVAP mutant and TaVAPOE plants in Arabidopsis thaliana in col-0 background using microarray technology to identify the genes differentially expressed under control conditions.
Gene encoding vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated protein from Triticum aestivum (TaVAP) confers tolerance to drought stress.

View SamplesWe describe a method for isolating RNA suitable for high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) from small numbers of fluorescently labeled cells isolated from live zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos without using costly, commercially available columns. This method ensures high cell viability after dissociation and suspension of cells and gives a very high yield of intact RNA. We demonstrate the utility of our new protocol by isolating RNA from fluorescence activated cell sorted (FAC sorted) pineal complex neurons in wild-type and tbx2b knockdown embryos at 24 hours post fertilization. Tbx2b is a transcription factor required for pineal complex formation. We describe a bioinformatics pipeline used to analyze differential expression following high-throughput sequencing and demonstrate the validity of our results using in situ hybridization of differentially expressed transcripts. This protocol brings modern transcriptome analysis to the study of small cell populations in zebrafish. Overall design: Differential expression analysis of mRNA levels in a single time-point (24 hpf) between wild-type and Tbx2b deficient FAC sorted pineal complex cells

View SamplesRice transgenic plants of the F-box encoding gene, OsFBK1, in the Pusa Basmati 1 (PB1) variety have been found to display differences in the anther and root phenotypes. In order to elucidate changes at the transcriptome level, microarray of the roots of 14-day-old seedlings of over-expresseion (OE) and knock-down (KD) lines along with vector control (VC) and wild type (WT) were carried out.

View SamplesIndica rice seedlings of IR64 variety were grown hydroponically for 7-days in a culture room with a daily photoperiodic cycle of 14h light and 10h dark. Seedlings were incubated in 0.1% dimethyl sulfoxide (control) or 50 micromolar solutions of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA treatment) and benzyl aminopurine (BAP treatment) for 1h and 3h. Equal amounts of 1h and 3h samoles were pooled for each treatment before RNA isolation. The 5 micrograms of each total RNA sample was processed for microarray analysis according to Affymetrix protocol.

View SamplesHomeobox transcription factors are known to regulate plant growth and development. Recently, they have also been implicated in abiotic stress responses. To analyze the role of HD-ZIP I subfamily member, OsHOX24, we constitutively overexpressed it in Arabidopsis. The physiological analyses revealed that overexpression of OsHOX24 gene severely reduced abiotic stress tolerance in transgenic plants as compared to wild-type.
