Single-Cell Transcriptome Analysis As a Promising Tool to Study Pluripotent Stem Cell Reprogramming
International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Single-Cell Transcriptome Analysis as a Promising Tool to Study Pluripotent Stem Cell Reprogramming Hyun Kyu Kim †, Tae Won Ha † and Man Ryul Lee * Soonchunhyang Institute of Medi-Bio Science (SIMS), Soon Chun Hyang University, Cheonan 31151, Korea; [email protected] (H.K.K.); [email protected] (T.W.H.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-41-413-5013 † These authors equally contributed to this work. Abstract: Cells are the basic units of all organisms and are involved in all vital activities, such as proliferation, differentiation, senescence, and apoptosis. A human body consists of more than 30 trillion cells generated through repeated division and differentiation from a single-cell fertilized egg in a highly organized programmatic fashion. Since the recent formation of the Human Cell Atlas consortium, establishing the Human Cell Atlas at the single-cell level has been an ongoing activity with the goal of understanding the mechanisms underlying diseases and vital cellular activities at the level of the single cell. In particular, transcriptome analysis of embryonic stem cells at the single-cell level is of great importance, as these cells are responsible for determining cell fate. Here, we review single-cell analysis techniques that have been actively used in recent years, introduce the single-cell analysis studies currently in progress in pluripotent stem cells and reprogramming, and forecast future studies.

Wildflower Growing Guide Rewilding Project
Wildflower Growing Guide Rewilding Project The flowers that are included in the Pharmabees seed mix are below: Common Knapweed Corn Marigold Oxeye Daisy White Campion Dandelion Corn Poppy Corn Chamomile Cornflower White Clover Bluebell These flowers were chosen by the Pharmabees team. These flowers have been identified as part of a University research project to develop a wild flower seed mix which can be used to support pollinators and to promote biodiversity. These flowers have been identified through our research on honey. Honey with high antibacterial activity was analysed. The pollens found in the honey were identified through DNA analysis. We were able to identify the flowers in your seed mix. We are conducting additional research on these plants and need your help. Please monitor your growing area and watch your flowers grow. We will be asking you to monitor your growing area for pollinators, and to collect some additional data for us. Thank you for being an important part of our research! Instructions: Choose a growing area around 1 meter squared. Firstly, remove all weeds, grass, and other plants. It is very important to remove weeds such as nettles, thistles, and Japanese knotweed. These weeds and grasses grow quickly, and will overtake your wildflower seeds if not removed. Cultivate the growing site to a depth of around 10cm. This can be done with a rake, or on large areas a plough. Sowing can take place throughout most of the year. The months of March/April/August and September are generally most suited. Mix the seeds before spreading. Ensure all the seed is mixed to ensure an even spread. -

PBMC Fixation and Processing for Chromium Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Jinguo Chen1, Foo Cheung1, Rongye Shi1,2, Huizhi Zhou1,2, Wenrui Lu1,3, CHI Consortium1 1Center for Human Immunology, Autoimmunity and Inflammation (CHI), National Institutes of Health 2Department of Transfusion Medicine, Clinical Center, National Institutes of Health 3Fujian Provincial Hospital, Fuzhou, China CHI Consortium (Julián Candia1, Yuri Kotliarov1, Katie R. Stagliano1 and John S. Tsang1,2) 1 CHI 2 Systems Genomics and Bioinformatics Unit, NIAID Abstract Background: Interest in single-cell transcriptomic analysis is growing rapidly, especially for profiling rare or heterogeneous populations of cells. In almost all reported works, investigators have used live cells which introduces cell stress during preparation and hinders complex study designs. Recent studies have indicated that cells fixed by denaturing fixative can be used in single-cell sequencing. But they did not work with most primary cells including immune cells. Methods: The methanol-fixation and new processing method was introduced to preserve PBMCs for single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) analysis on 10X Chromium platform. Results: When methanol fixation protocol was broken up into three steps: fixation, storage and rehydration, we found that PBMC RNA was degraded during rehydration with PBS, not at cell fixation and up to three-month storage steps. -
Plant Polyphenols As Antioxidants Influencing the Human Health
9 Plant Polyphenols as Antioxidants Influencing the Human Health Sanda Vladimir-Knežević, Biljana Blažeković, Maja Bival Štefan and Marija Babac University of Zagreb, Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry, Croatia 1. Introduction Widely distributed in plant kingdom and abundant in our diet plant polyphenols are today among the most talked about concerning the classes of phytochemicals. There are several thousand plant-derived compounds of biogical interest that have more than one phenolic hydroxyl group attached to one or more benzene rings, thus qualifying as polyphenols. In recent years, polyphenols have gained a lot of importance because of their potential use as prophylactic and therapeutic agents in many diseases, and much work has been presented by the scientific community which focuses on their antioxidant effects. Traditionally, herbal medicines with antioxidant properties have been used for various purposes and epidemiological data also point at widespread acceptance and use of these agents. Plant polyphenols have been studied with intention to find compounds protecting against a number of diseases related to oxidative stress and free radical-induced damage, such as cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, diabetes, autoimmune disorders and some inflammatory diseases. In order to evaluate the efficacy of polyphenols as antioxidants as well as to elucidate the mode of their action, researchers today are using a wide range of experimental models, from the simplest chemical antioxidant assays through the biologically more relevant cellular-based assays to the most accurate animal models, and ultimately clinical studies in humans. The latest scientific knowledge offers a more detailed understanding of the biological effects of polyphenols and their role in human health promotion and disease prevention. -

In Northeast India by Centaurea Cyanus L
ISSN. 0972 - 8406 The NEHU Journal, Vol. XVIII, No.1, January-June 2020, pp. 100-111 First record of new ‘invasion’ in northeast India by Centaurea cyanus L. (Asteraceae) Uma Shankar Department of Botany, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong 793022, India (Email: [email protected]) Abstract The region of northeast India boasts sizeable flora of non-native species which has ar- rived during last few centuries. Whilst several of these species have escaped in wild and naturalized, others have mingled in the flora and remain oblivious. Some species have gained dominance and replaced native flora and these are considered “invasive”. This article reports the first record of an herbaceous plant, Centaurea cyanus L. of Asteraceae family from northeast India. The plant was found in the summer of 2020 in the cam- pus of North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong while it was competing with several other non-native species on poor substratum. An extensive search in the floras of the region revealed that the plant has not been reported previously. It is probable that the plant has arrived here either as a companion with the supplies of packaged seeds of garden flow- ers procured by the residents from various sources or through some other carrier from nearby villages where it has made presence. Only time will answer if the plant remains oblivious or turns invasive. Keywords: Centaurea cyanus, cornflower, invasive species, medicinal plants. Introduction The flora of northeastern region of India has been invaded by a number of plants during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The invading species predominantly belong to Asteraceae and are detected only after they have gained dominance in the landscape (Shankar et al., 2011). -
