Initial differences in lipid processing leading to pig- and beef-derived mature adipocyte dedifferentiation
Download2009
Fernyhough, Melinda E., Hausman, Gary J., Guan, Leluo, Guridi, Maitea, Jiang, Zhihua, Dodson, Michael V., Chen, Jie
Clonal cultures of pig-derived mature adipocytes are capable of dedifferentiating and forming proliferative-competent progeny cells in vitro. Initial lipid processing, is different to that observed in cultures of beef-derived adipocytes. Mature pig adipocytes extrude lipid before proliferation,...

Initial gut microbial composition as a key factor driving host response to antibiotic treatment, as exemplified by the presence or absence of commensal Escherichia coli
Download2017-08-01
Ju, Tingting, Shoblak, Yasmeen, Gao, Yanhua, Yang, Kaiyuan, Fouhse, Janelle, Finlay, B. Brett, So, Yee Wing, Stothard, Paul, Willing, Ben P.
Antibiotics are important for treating bacterial infection; however, efficacies and side effects of antibiotics vary in medicine and experimental models. A few studies have correlated microbiota composition variations with health outcomes in response to antibiotics; however, no study has...

Metabolic flexibility revealed in the genome of the cyst-forming α-1 proteobacterium Rhodospirillum centenum
Download2010
Hao, Jicheng, Rollo, David, Marden, Jeremiah, Stothard, Paul, Kurdoglu, Ahmet A., Kim, Sun, Chowdhury, Sugata R., Mastrian, Stephen D., Swingley, Wesley D., Lu, Yih-Kuang , Touchman, Jeffrey W., Han, Mira, Blankenship, Robert E., Bauer, Carl E., Matthies, Heather J., Helmy,Tamer
Background Rhodospirillum centenum is a photosynthetic non-sulfur purple bacterium that favors growth in an anoxygenic, photosynthetic N2-fixing environment. It is emerging as a genetically amenable model organism for molecular genetic analysis of cyst formation, photosynthesis, phototaxis, and...

Microarray analysis in caudal medulla of cattle orally challenged with bovine spongiform encephalopathy
Download2011
Williams, John L., Moore, Stephen S., Almeida, Luciane M., Basu, Urmila, Guan, Leluo
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a fatal disorder in cattle characterized by progressive neurodegeneration of the central nervous system. We investigated the molecular mechanisms involved in neurodegeneration during prion infection through the identification of genes that are...

Jin, Weiwu, He, Maolong, Guan, Leluo, Romao, Josue M., McAllister, Tim
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs found to regulate several biological processes including adipogenesis. Understanding adipose tissue regulation is critical for beef cattle as fat is an important determinant of beef quality and nutrient value. This study analyzed the...

Bamforth, Fiona, Stothard, Paul, Peng, Fred, Sergi, Consolato, Chan, Alicia, Bahitham, Wesam, Stone, Bradley, Mason, Andrew, Liao, Xiaoping
Cholangiocellular carcinoma (CCA) of the liver was the target of more interest, recently, due mainly to its increased incidence and possible association to new environmental factors. Somatic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations have been found in several cancers. Some of these malignancies contain...

Bergen, Werner G., Fernyhough, Melinda E., Hausman, Gary J., Dodson, Mike V., Du, Min, Mir, Priya S., Guan, Leluo, Jiang, Zhihua
Obesity and metabolic syndromes are examples whereby excess energy consumption and energy flux disruptions are causative agents of increased fatness. Because other, as yet elucidated, cellular factors may be involved and because potential treatments of these metabolic problems involve systemic...

Wishart, David S., Dong, Xaoli, Forsythe, Ian J., Stothard, Paul
PlasMapper is a comprehensive web server that automatically generates and annotates high-quality circular plasmid maps. Taking only the plasmid/vector DNA sequence as input, PlasMapper uses sequence pattern matching and BLAST alignment to automatically identify and label common promoters,...

PolySearch: A web-based text mining system for extracting relationships between human diseases, genes, mutations, drugs and metabolites
Download2008
Cheng, Dean, Stothard, Paul, Damaraju, Sambasivarao, Wishart, David S., Knox, Craig, Young, Nelson
A particular challenge in biomedical text mining is to find ways of handling ‘comprehensive’ or ‘associative’ queries such as ‘Find all genes associated with breast cancer’. Given that many queries in genomics, proteomics or metabolomics involve these kind of comprehensive searches we believe...

Potential regulatory role of microRNAs in the development of bovine gastrointestinal tract during early life
Download2014
Liang, Guanxiang, Bao, Hua, Guan, Leluo, Griebel, Philip J., Stothard, Paul, McFadden, Thomas B., Malmuthuge, Nilusha
This study aimed to investigate the potential regulatory role of miRNAs in the development of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) during the early life of dairy calves. Rumen and small intestinal (mid-jejunum and ileum) tissue samples were collected from newborn (30 min after birth; n = 3), 7-day-old...
