View SamplesTwo-week old rice plants (cultivar Nipponbare) were treated with either Magnaporthe grisea (virulent isolate FR13) spore suspension in gelatine or gelatine alone. Two time points were taken (3 and 4 days post inoculation- dpi). Disease symptoms were not visible at 3 dpi whereas they were at 4 dpi. Two biological repeats were done.

View SamplesSkeletal muscle must perform a wide range of kinds of work, and different fiber types have evolved to accommodate these different tasks. The attributes of fibers are determined in large part by the coordinated regulation of oxidative capacity, as reflected by mitochondrial content, and the specific makeup of myofibrillar proteins. Adult muscle fibers contain four myosin heavy chain isotypes: I, IIa, IIx and IIb. Type I and IIa fibers have slower twitches and are rich in mitochondria, while type IIb fibers are fast-twitch and predominantly glycolytic. The intermediate IIx fibers are less well understood. Previous work had shown that the transcriptional coactivator PGC-1 alpha could drive the formation of type I and IIa muscle fibers. We show here that mice with transgenic expression of PGC-1 beta in skeletal muscle results in marked induction of IIx fibers. The fibers in transgenic mice are rich in mitochondria and are highly oxidative. As a result, PGC-1 beta transgenic animals can perform oxidative activity for longer and at higher work loads than wild type animals. In cell culture, PGC-1 beta coactivates the MEF2 family of transcription factors to stimulate the MHC IIx promoter. Together, these data indicate that PGC-1 beta is sufficient to drive the formation in vivo of highly oxidative fibers with type IIx characteristics.

View SamplesIn contrast to the well-established role of oxidative muscle fibers in regulating fatty acid oxidation and whole body metabolism, little is known that about the function of fast/glycolytic muscle fibers in these processes. Here, we generated a skeletal muscle-specific, conditional transgenic mouse expressing a constitutively-active form of Akt1. Transgene activation led to muscle hypertrophy due to the growth of type IIb muscle fibers, which was accompanied by an increase in strength. These mice were then used to assess the consequence of building fast/glycolytic muscle fibers on adiposity and metabolism. Akt1 transgene induction in obese mice resulted in reductions in body weight and fat mass, a resolution of hepatic steatosis and improved metabolic parameters. These effects were achieved independent of changes in physical activity and levels of food consumption. Akt1-mediated skeletal muscle growth opposed the effects of high fat/sucrose diet on transcript expression patterns in the liver, and increased hepatic fatty acid oxidation and ketone body production. Our findings indicate that an increase in fast/glycolytic muscle mass can result in the regression of obesity and obesity-related metabolic disorders in part through its ability to alter fatty acid metabolism in remote tissues.
Fast/Glycolytic muscle fiber growth reduces fat mass and improves metabolic parameters in obese mice.

View SamplesRNAseq analysis of human bone marrow derived stromal cells (MSCs) treated for 24 hours with or wihout 10ng/ml Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 (FGF2) MSCs were derived from 4 different healthy donors. Cells were expanded to passage 3-4. Then cells were treated with FGF-2. 24 hours later, total RNA was extracted (total 8 samples). Overall design: RNA was submitted to BGI Americas for RNAseq. Here, QC was performed using Agilent 2100. All samples had a RIN above 8.0. For preparation for library, mRNA was enriched by using the oligo (dT) magnetic beads. mRNA was enriched by using the oligo (dT) magnetic beads. mRNA was fragmented into short fragments (about 200bp) using a fragmentation buffer. Then the first strand of cDNA was synthesized by random hexamer-primer using the mRNA fragments as templates. Buffer, dNTSPs, RNase H and DNA polymerase I were added to synthesize the second strand. The double strand cDNA was purified with QiaQuick PCR extraction kit and washed with EB buffer for end repair and base A addition. Finally, sequencing adapters were ligated to the fragments. The fragments are purified by Agarose gel electrophoresis and enriched by PCR amplification. The library products are ready for sequencing analysis via 2 sE50 lanes in Illumina HiSeqâ„¢ 2000.
