Case story. A patient with massive infiltration of the visceral adipose tissue depot by BAT in a patient with a catecholamine secreting paraganglioma. BAT tissue was identified by protein expression of UCP1 (western blotting and immunostaining)

View SamplesAtopic dermatitis (AD) is a common inflammatory skin disease with underlying defects in epidermal function and immune responses. The goal of this study was to investigate differences in gene expression in lesional skin from patients with mild extrinsic or intrinsic AD compared to skin from healthy controls and from lesional psoriasis skin. The aim was to identify differentially expressed genes involved in skin barrier formation and inflammation, and to compare our results with those reported for patients with moderate and severe AD.
Distinct molecular signatures of mild extrinsic and intrinsic atopic dermatitis.

View SamplesPurpose: To identify transcriptional changes by RNA-seq in tumor samples, before bevacizumab combination treatment and after bevacizumab combination treatment in both responding and non-responding recurrent glioblastoma patients Overall design: Three comparison analyses were further performed: 1.) Paired analysis of pre- and post-treated samples from responding patients; 2.) Comparison of pre-treated samples of responders vs. non-responders; 3.) Paired analysis of pre- and post-treated samples from non-responding patients The sample ''characteristics: batch'' represents a combination of the RNA-extraction date and the library-preparation date for each sample.

View SamplesCap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE) applied on carbon nanotubes exposed lung tissue to identify alternative promoter and enhancer usage after 24 hr of exposure in order to investigate the nature of the response observed in these mice. Overall design: C57BL/6 mice was exposed to vehicle or multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) by intratracheal installation. 5 mice was exposed to 162 ug of MWCNTs ( XNRI-7; lot05072001K28, Hadoga Chemical industry (formerly known as Mitsui) disolved in 0.9% NaCl and 10% v/v cellfree cellular broncho alveolar lavage (BAL) fluid collected from C57BL/6 mice. 6 mice was exposed to the previously decribed saline/BAL solution but without carbon nanotubes.
