The study used two Drosophila melanogaster fly lines, Alstonville and Dahomey, which have mitochondrial DNA variants but otherwise similar genomes. Female third instar larvae from both lines were fed on two diets, one with a 1:2 protein:carbohydrate ratio and the other with a 1:16 ratio. RNA was extracted and profiled by RNA-seq. Samples were sequenced on an Illumina Hiseq 2000 sequencer at the Ramaciotti Centre for Genomics, Sydney, Australia to produce 100bp paired end reads. At least 80 million read pairs were generated per sample. Overall design: Four independent replicates were obtained for each mitotype-diet combination.
Genotype to phenotype: Diet-by-mitochondrial DNA haplotype interactions drive metabolic flexibility and organismal fitness.

View SamplesWe investigate the role of Snf2l in ovaries by characterizing a mouse bearing an inactivating deletion on the ATPase domain of Snf2l (Ex6DEL). Snf2l mutant mice produce significantly fewer eggs than control mice when superovulated. Thus, gonadotropin stimulation leads to a significant deficit in secondary follicles and an increase in abnormal antral follicles. We profiled the expression of granulosa cells from Snf2l WT and Ex6DEL mice treated with pregnant mares' serum gonadotropin followed by human chorionic gonadotropin
The imitation switch ATPase Snf2l is required for superovulation and regulates Fgl2 in differentiating mouse granulosa cells.

View SamplesNine cigarette smoke condensates (CSCs) were produced under a standard ISO smoking machine regimen and one was produced by a more intense smoking machine regimen. These CSCs were used to treat primary normal human bronchial epithelial cells for 18 hours.

View SamplesMolecular phenotyping of cell types and neural circuits underlying pathological neuropsychiatric conditions and their responses to therapy provides one avenue for the development of more specific and effective treatments. In this study, we identify a cell population in the cerebral cortex that shows robust and specific molecular adaptations following long-term SSRI treatment.
