View SamplesWe performed whole-genome stability measurements for MDA-MB-231 and its highly metastatic derivative MDA-LM2. Our goal was to identify post-transcriptonal regulons that are deregulated en route to higher metastatic capacity. Overall design: Cells were pulsed with 4-thiouridine for 2 hours and then RNA was extracted at 0, 2, 4, and 7 hr time-points in quadruplicate from each cell line. 4sU labeling followed by RNA-seq was then used to measure the abundance of transcripts in each population. A decay rate was estimated based on the rate at which transcript abundance was reduced at these time-points.

View SamplesIn this study, we compared the expression profiles of miRNAs in blood samples from Impaired Fasting Glucose (IFG) and T2D male patients. Healthy adult males with no past history of T2D (n=158) and with desirable cholesterol and blood pressure profiles were enrolled in this study. They were then classified according to fasting glucose levels to have T2D, IFG or as healthy controls (CTL), for comparison of miRNA expression profiles. Employing miRNA microarray, we identified signature miRNAs in peripheral blood samples that distinguished IFG and T2D. Eight selected miRNAs were further validated using stem-loop real-time RT-PCR. miR-144 expression was found to be dysregulated in Type 2 Diabetes, wherein its expression was significantly higher than in healthy controls. Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) has been predicted to be a potential target of miR-144. Consistent with this observation, IRS1 mRNA and protein levels, verified by quantitative real-time PCR and western blotting respectively, were found to be down-regulated.

View SamplesThe cellular and molecular aspects of post-infarct left-ventricle remodeling in presence of type-2 diabetes is poorly understood. In this study we have addressed the cellular and molecular aspects underlying post-infarct left-ventricle remodeling in type 2 diabetic (T2DM) mice using genome-wide mRNA-sequencing. Myocardial infarction was induced by ligating left-anterior descending artery (LAD) in 12-14 month old T2DM and control mice. Cardiac MRI was performed at baseline, day 7 and 14 post-LAD ligation. Blood and tissue samples were collected for biochemical and immunohistochemical, molecular biology analysis after sacrification at day 7 and 14. Genome-wide mRNA sequencing analysis was performed from left-ventricular tissues collected at day 7 post-LAD ligation. Mitochondrial dynamics, Leukocyte recruitment and Collagen I deposition were analyzed using electron microscopy, fluorescent assisted cell sorting (FACS) and fourier-transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy from left ventricular tissues collected at day 7 and 14 post-LAD ligation. Cardiac ejection fraction (EF) and stroke volume (SV) were significantly reduced along with increased mortality in T2DM compared to controls. Ingenuity pathway analyses of differentially expressed genes were enriched for mitochondrial dysfunction, TCA cycle and fatty acid oxidation. Additionally, upstream transcription factor analysis showed inhibition of PGC1a, PGC1b, ESRRA, ESRRB and TFAM in infarcted myocardium of T2DM mice. Electron microscopy analysis showed an altered mitochondrial dynamics and cardiomyocyte death in ischemic myocardium of T2DM mice. Leukocytes exhibited an altered phenotype in ischemic myocardium of T2DM mice. Neovascularization was impaired and collagen deposition was increased in ischemic myocardium of T2DM mice. We conclude that an altered mitochondrial dynamics, cell death modalities, leukocyte phenotype, neovascularization responses and fibrosis may contribute to an increased mortality after myocardial infarction in T2DM. Modulation of mitochondrial dynamics and cardiomyocyte cell death modalities may offer a novel therapeutic target. Overall design: Myocardial infarction was induced by ligating left anterior descending artery (LAD). Total RNA was isolated from remote, Infarct and border zones at day 7 after myocardial infarction. Poly (A)+RNA fraction was subjected to RNA sequencing using Illumina HiSeq.

View SamplesIn most embryos, the mid-blastula transition is a complex process featuring maternal RNA degradation, cell cycle pause, zygotic transcriptional activation and morphological changes. The nucleocytoplasmic (N/C) ratio has been proposed to control the multiple events at MBT. To understand the global transcriptional response to the changes of the N/C ratio, we profiled wild type and haploid embryos using cDNA microarrays at three developmental stages.

View SamplesShoot apical meristem (SAM) of higher plant composed of a few distinct cell types. All the cells in a mature plants SAM derived from 30~35 stem cells reservoir which are located at the tip of the apex. Plants ability to give rise diverse cell types from a pool of pluripotent stem cells requires orchestrated gene network that controls the cell fate commitment during the meristem development. To understand, how gene regulatory networks control cell identities switches during cell differentiation requires resolution in recording their gene expression pattern at single cell resolution. An earlier expression map involving three-cell population of stem cell niche revealed complex expression pattern among the cell types1. We developed this approach further and report here a gene expression map using cell-sorting methods for fluorescent protein marked cells in Arabidopsis shoot. The map covered 10 cell populations.
