miR-34a and miR-34b/c genes are frequently epigenetically silenced in primary CRCs. However, the in vivo relevance of miR-34a/b/c for suppression of intestinal tumor formation has not been analyzed by genetic approaches. ApcMin/+ mice with deletion of the miR-34a and miR-34b/c genes were generated and analyzed. The mRNA expression profiles of intestinal adenomas with and without functional miR-34a/b/c genes were compared. Overall design: miR-34a/b/c deficient ApcMin/+ mice and wild-type ApcMin/+ mice were sacrificed at 18 weeks of age. 3 tumor RNA samples were obtained for each genotype; each tumor RNA sample represented a pool of 3 tumors isolated from the same mouse.

View SamplesWe employ mRNA-seq to investigate transcriptome of Pum1-Knockout, Pum2-Knockout and WT conditons Overall design: In order to investigate whether Pum1 and Pum2 regulate their targets at their RNA levels, we used 1/10 of the samples from the Pum1 and Pum2 iCLIP experiments (four biological repeats of WT, P1KO, and P2KO neonatal brains) to extract total RNAs for RNA deep sequencing. And we also collected three Ndcko neonatal brains for RNA deep sequencing.

View SamplesActivity-dependent gene expression is central for sculpting neuronal connectivity in the brain. Despite the importance for synaptic plasticity, a comprehensive analysis of the temporal changes in the transcriptomic response to neuronal activity is lacking. In a genome wide survey we identified genes that were induced at 1, 4, 8, or 24 hours following neuronal activity in the hippocampus.

View SamplesPreeclampsia complicates more than 3% of all pregnancies in the United States and Europe. High-risk populations include women with diabetes, dyslipidemia, thrombotic disorders, hyperhomocysteinemia, hypertension, renal diseases, previous preeclampsia, twin pregnancies, and low socioeconomic status. In the latter case, the incidence may increase to 20% to 25%. Preeclampsia is a major cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Preeclampsia is defined by systolic blood pressure of more than 140 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure of more than 90 mm Hg after 20 weeks gestation in a previously normotensive patient, and new-onset proteinuria. Abnormal placentation associated with shallow trophoblast invasion (fetal cells from outer cell layer of the blastocyst) into endometrium (decidua) and improper spiral artery remodeling in the decidua are initial pathological steps.

View SamplesTo characterize the transcriptome of the transcription factor AP4 DLD-1 cells were infected with AP4 coding viruses for different periods of time. Adenovirus amplification and purification was performed as previously described (He et al., 1998). The minimal amount of virus needed to reach more than 90% infection efficiency was determined by monitoring GFP signals with fluorescence microscopy. DLD-1 cells were infected in serum-free medium with adenovirus for 3 hours. After removal an equal amount of medium containing 20% FBS was added.
