44 results about "Transcriptome profiling" patented technology

Global transcriptional profiling is a powerful tool that can expose expression patterns to define cellular states or to identify genes with similar expression patterns. In recent years, transcriptome profiling has been widely used to understand the genetic regulation of a particular cell type.

Depletion of abundant uninformative sequences

The use of different primer sets in reverse transcription incorporates tags allowing for the selective amplification of cDNA transcribed using the different primers. Primers targeting non-desired RNA sequences such as ribosomal RNA can be used to prevent subsequent amplification of cDNA transcribed from those non-coding fragments. Accordingly effective depletion of non-desired sequences after cDNA amplification can be achieved. Systems and methods of the invention have applications in whole-transcriptome analysis. Non-coding sequence targeting primers can include nucleotide analogs that, when enzymatically processed, prevent subsequent amplification. Library preparation can include single primer isothermal amplification (SPIA) techniques wherein an RNA sequence required for SPIA is included in random primers but is absent from primers targeting non-coding RNA.

Therapeutic agent for neurological diseases

In nerve diseases, cell dysfunction due to amyloid aggregate accumulation in nerve cells has attracted attention, but dysfunction of nerve axons responsible for neurotransmission is also considered to be one of the causes. However, no therapeutic agent that focuses on the repair and maintenance of nerve axons has been found. An object of the present invention is to provide a therapeutic agent that activates oligodendrocytes having a function of preserving nerve axons.SOLUTION: Transcriptome analysis with a psychotropic drug is carried out using an oligodendrocyte marker as an indicator, and it is found that the combined use of DPZ and NFN characteristically increases the expression of a transcriptional factor OLIG1 inducing the differentiation-maturation of the oligodendrocyte. Moreover, the drug concentration at this time was much lower than the expected clinical dose. The combined use of NFN and DPZ was observed to improve spatial memory in the mouse Y-maze test. The combination of NFN and DPZ can provide a novel treatment for cognitive and memory functions associated with neurological disorders.SELECTED DRAWING: None

PCR amplification was performed, and a prokaryotic expression vector was constructed to induce dsRNA expression. Feeding leafminer moth larvae with dsRNA interfered with LmCHS1 gene expression. After 24 hours, abnormalities were observed in the larvae's body surface, with some larvae failing to complete molting or dying due to an inability to form a normal body surface after molting.

The method of generating multipotent stem cells is a method for producing and / or expanding multipotent stem cells by delivering at least one reprogramming protein into somatic cells. The at least one reprogramming protein includes a Master Regulator (MR) protein, which may be BAZ2B, ZBTB20, ZMAT1, CNOT8, KLF12, DMTF1, HBP1, or FLI1. The bromodomain protein BAZ2B, in particular, was identified by first generating bi-species heterokaryons by fusing Tcf7l1− / − murine embryonic stem cells (ESCs) with human B-cell lymphocytes. Reprogramming of the B-cell nuclei to a multipotent state was tracked by human mRNA transcript profiling at multiple timepoints. Interrogation of a human B-cell regulatory network with gene expression signatures collected from such reprogramming time series identified eight candidate Master Regulator proteins, which were validated in human cord blood-derived hematopoietic progenitor and lineage-committed cells.
