Sex-biased gene expression and sexual conflict throughout development.
Sex
View SamplesSex differences in gene expression throughout development are poorly understood, especially sex-specific expression of micro RNAs. However these patterns of gene expression could have important implications in our understanding of the underlying mechanics of sex differentiation and sexual conflict.

Variable expressivity of ciliopathy neurological phenotypes that encompass Meckel-Gruber syndrome and Joubert syndrome is caused by complex de-regulated ciliogenesis, Shh and Wnt signalling defects.

View SamplesPapillomaviruses (PVs) are able to induce papillomas, premalignant lesions, and carcinomas in a wide variety of species. PVs are classified first based on their host and tissue tropism and then their genomic diversities. A laboratory mouse papillomavirus, MmuPV1 (formerly MusPV), naturally infects NMRI-Foxn1nu/Foxn1nu (nude; T cell deficient) mice. C57BL/6J wild-type mice were not susceptible to MmuPV1 infection; however, immunocompetent, alopecic, S/RV/Cri-ba/ba (bare) mice developed small papillomas at injection sites that regressed. NMRI-Foxn1nu and B6.Cg-Foxn1nu but not NU/J-Foxn1nu mice were susceptible to MmuPV1 infection. B6 congenic strains, but not other congenic strains carrying the same allelic mutations, that lack B- and T-cells, but not B-cells alone, were susceptible to infection, indicating that mouse strain and T-cell deficiency are critical to tumor formation. Although lesions initially observed were exophytic papillomas around the muzzle, exophytic papillomas on the tail and condylomas of the vaginal lining could be induced by experimental infections. On the dorsal skin, locally invasive, poorly differentiated tumors developed with features similar to human trichoblastomas. Transcriptome analysis revealed significant differences between the normal skin in these anatomic sites and in papillomas versus trichoblastomas. The primarily dysregulated genes involved molecular pathways associated with cancer, cellular development, cellular growth and proliferation, cell morphology, and connective tissue development and function. Surprisingly, few of the genes commonly associated with basal cell carcinoma or squamous cells carcinoma were dramatically dysregulated.
Immune status, strain background, and anatomic site of inoculation affect mouse papillomavirus (MmuPV1) induction of exophytic papillomas or endophytic trichoblastomas.

View SamplesGender dimorphism exists in the physiological response to diet and other environmental factors. Trans-hydrogenated fatty acid (TFA) intake is associated with an increase in coronary heart disease (CHD), and gender differences in the incidence of CHD are well documented. Neonatal administration of Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) causes stunted heart growth and hypoplasticity; and gender dimorphism at the growth hormone axis has been demonstrated in MSG-treated rodents. The identification of gender dimorphism in cardiac nutrigenomics may provide the basis for gender-specific medicine in the future.

View SamplesChronic dietary aspartame may impair rodent insulin tolerance and may affect behavior. Previous studies have shown the aspartame effects may be modulated by developmental NMDA receptor antagonism. Present study was designed to assess effects of aspartame and NMDAR antagonism on components of the HPA axis.

View SamplesThe goals of this study are to compare NGS-derived whole transcriptome profiles (RNA-seq) of H5N1 infected A549 cells overexpressing either negative control mimic or miR-324-5p mimic Overall design: A549 cells were either mock transfected or transfected with either negative control or mir-324-5p mimic. After 12 hours cells were either mock infected (mock transfected cells) or infected with A/duck/India/02CA10/2011 - H5N1 virus (negative control and miR-324-5p overexpressing cells)
