Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of cellular pathways. The goals of this study are to compare NGS-derived brain transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) in neuropathic region specific Gaucher mouse brain compared with WT and Isofagamine treated mice of the same age and background and secondly to identify the DEmiRNA associated with the DEmRNA before and after treatment This will give us some insights to see if miRNA is also involved in the the regulation of the expression of the genes involved in the disease process before and after treatment. Methods: 42-45 days old 4L;C*, wild-type (WT) and Isofagamine treated 4L;C* mouse brain were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using IlluminaHiseq. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the gene level with two methods: Burrows–Wheeler Aligner (BWA) followed and TopHat followed by DESeq. qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green assays Overall design: Regional brain mRNA profiles of ~42 -days old wild type (WT) and 4L;C* an d Isofagamine treated mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using IlluminaHi Seq.

View SamplesMixed-lineage leukemias represent about 3-5% of acute leukemias occurring in patients of all ages and comprise several different subtypes (biphenotypic, bilineal, and lineage switch). The optimal therapeutic approach to these cases, especially in pediatric patients, has not been defined. We used microarrays to detail the gene expression of pediatric patients with biophenotypic leukemia.

View SamplesInvestigations on the fundamental of malaria parasite biology, such as invasion, growth cycle, metabolism and cell signalling have uncovered a number of potential antimalarial drug targets, including choline kinase, a key enzyme involved in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, an important component in parasite membrane compartment.

View SamplesThe activation profiles of macrophages under different immune and inflammatory conditions have generated great interest. LPS, in particular, is a commonly used in vitro model of infection and inflammation studies in macrophages. We have used gene expression microarrays to define the effects of each of three variables; LPS dose, LPS vs. interferons beta and gamma, and genetic background on the transcriptional response of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages
Analysis of the transcriptional networks underpinning the activation of murine macrophages by inflammatory mediators.

View SamplesThe leaf extract of T. indica had been reported to posses high phenolic content and showed high antioxidant activities. However, scientific data on the molecular mechanisms underlying the beneficial properties of the leaf extract are still lacking. In this study, the effects of the leaf extract on the expression of genes in cultured HepG2 cells were investigated using microarray technology. The leaf extract significantly regulated the expression of genes involved with consequential impact on the coagulation system, cholesterol biosynthesis, xenobiotic metabolism signaling and antimicrobial response.
