Improve survival prediction using principal components of gene expression data

The purpose of many microarray studies is to find the association between gene expression and sample characteristics such as treatment type or sample phenotype. There has been a surge of efforts developing different methods for delineating the association. Aside from the high dimensionality of microarray data, one well recognized challenge is the fact that genes could be complicatedly inter-related, thus making many statistical methods inappropriate to use directly on the expression data. Multivariate methods such as principal component analysis （PCA） and clustering are often used as a part of the effort to capture the gene correlation, and the derived components or clusters are used to describe the association between gene expression and sample phenotype. We propose a method for patient population dichotomization using maximally selected test statistics in combination with the PCA method, which shows favorable results. The proposed method is compared with a currently well-recognized method.     

乙烯诱导水仙成花相关代谢物和基因的筛选与分析

为了解乙烯诱导水仙(Narcissus tazetta var. chinensis)成花的生理和分子机制,利用代谢组和转录组测序技术,筛选乙烯诱导水仙成花的差异表达代谢物和基因。结果表明,乙烯处理的侧芽检测到12个差异表达代谢物(DEM),包括7个上调,5个下调,其中,(±)7-表茉莉酸、多巴胺、亚精胺可能与乙烯诱导水仙成花正相关,而吲哚及其衍生物呈负相关。转录组共获得1 021个差异表达基因(DEG),包括615个上调,406个下调,在DEG中鉴定筛选了45个与乙烯信号传导和开花相关的差异表达基因。乙烯诱导水仙成花启动可能先激活水仙鳞茎内源植物激素(尤其乙烯)信号通路的变化,与开花促进基因FPF1和MADS15的上调表达密切相关。9个基因的qRT-PCR结果验证了RNA-Seq的正确性。这些差异表达的代谢物和基因在水仙成花启动过程中可能具有重要作用。     

MC-LR对草鱼组织显微结构及HO-1、IL-10R1基因表达的影响

该项目主要研究微囊藻毒素-LR(microcystin-LR, MC-LR)对草鱼机体的毒害作用。草鱼经腹腔注射微囊藻毒素-LR的剂量为100μg/kg, 0.5 h、1 h、3 h、6 h、12 h和24 h后对草鱼组织和血液采样,然后进行组织显微结构和基因HO-1和IL-10R1的表达分析。(1)通过光学显微镜观察,肠道组织病理变化表现为肠绒毛上皮细胞脱落,杯状细胞增多,上皮细胞的细胞核变形; 6 h实验组出现肠道充血; 12 h实验组和24 h实验组肠绒毛黏膜固有层分离,且有时间效应。(2)采用荧光定量PCR技术对HO-1和IL-10R1基因进行检测,结果显示草鱼鳃、肝脏、肠道、脾脏和心脏组织各实验组较对照组的HO-1基因表达量显著降低(P<0.05),同时草鱼脑、肝脏、肠道、脾脏组织和血液各实验组较对照组的IL-10R1基因表达量显著降低(P<0.05)。微囊藻毒素-LR导致草鱼肠道、肝脏和鱼鳃等器官的病理损伤和HO-1和IL-10R1基因表达量显著降低,可为MC-LR刺激草鱼的炎症反应与免疫反应提供相关理论依据。

EST-based analysis of gene expression in the porcine brain

Since pig is an important livestock species worldwide, its gene expression has been investigated intensively, but rarely in brain. In order to study gene expression profiles in the pig central nervous system, we sequenced and analyzed 43,122 highquality 5’ end expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from porcine cerebellum, cortex cerebrum, and brain stem cDNA libraries, involving several different prenatal and postnatal developmental stages. The initial ESTs were assembled into 16,101 clusters and compared to protein and nucleic acid databases in GenBank. Of these sequences, 30.6% clusters matched protein databases and represented function known sequences; 75.1% had significant hits to nucleic acid databases and partial represented known function; 73.3% matched known porcine ESTs; and 21.5% had no matches to any known sequences in GenBank. We used the categories defined by the Gene Ontology to survey gene expression in the porcine brain.     

Ultrasound／Microbubble Enhances Foreign Gene Expression in ECV304 Cells and Murine Myocardium

The success of gene therapy is largely dependent onthe development of vectors or vehicles that can selectivelyand efficiently deliver a therapeutic gene to cells or targetissues with minimal toxicity. Viruses are efficient transducing vectors. However, the safety concerns regardingthe use of virus vector in human make nonviral deliverysystem an attractive focus. Nonviral vectors are particularly suitable with respect to the simplicity of use, possibility of large-scale production and lack of s…
