View SamplesA GFP-expressing recombinant A/Puerto Rico/8/1934 influenza virus was used to infect C57BL/6 wild type mice and on day 3 post infection, lung alveolar epithelial cells (AEC) were isolated and sorted based on GFP expression. GFP+ AEC represent the infected AEC and GFP- AEC represent the bystander AEC. AEC were also sorted from uninfected mice to serve as controls. Overall design: AEC from infected mice were pooled to make three (3) infected GFP+ AEC replicates for sequencing. Five (5) bystander GFP- replicates and five (5) uninfected AEC replicates were also isolated for sequencing

View SamplesThe vertebrate embryo undergoes a series of dramatic morphological changes as the body extends to form the complete anterior-posterior axis during the somite-forming stages. The molecular mechanisms regulating these complex processes are still largely unknown. We show that the Hippo pathway transcriptional coactivators Yap1 and Wwtr1 are specifically localized to the ectoderm and notochord, and play a critical and unexpected role in posterior body extension by regulating the assembly of Fibronectin underneath the ectoderm and surrounding the notochord. We also find that Yap1/Wwtr1, also acting through Fibronectin, have an essential role in the ectodermal morphogenesis necessary to form the initial dorsal and ventral fins, a process that had been thought to involve bending of an epithelial sheet, but which we now show involves active cell migration. Our results reveal how the Hippo pathway transcriptional program, localized to two specific tissues, acts to control essential morphological events in the vertebrate embryo. Overall design: two biological replicates of tails of yap1/wwtr1 double homozygous mutants and siblings (24 each at 16-18 somite stage) were collected for RNAseq. Tails are tissues of the posterior end until the third newest somite (S-III).

View SamplesSamples collected from human subjects in clinical trials possess a level of complexity, arising from multiple cell types, that can obfuscate the analysis of data derived from them. Blood, for example, contains many different cell types that are derived from a distinct lineage and carry out a different immunological purpose. Failure to identify, quantify, and incorporate sources of heterogeneity into an analysis can have widespread and detrimental effects on subsequent statistical studies.
