One Bacterial Cell, One Complete Genome

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the completed genome from an uncultured single cell of Candidatus Sulcia muelleri DMIN, which is a polyploid species with genome copies ranging from approximately 200-900 per cell.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dual RNA-Sequencing to Elucidate the Plant-Pathogen Duel.

TL;DR: This review focuses on the design of dual RNA-seq experiments and the application of downstream data analysis to gain biological insight into both sides of the interaction and a reduction in sequencing cost and single cell transcriptomics coupled with protein and metabolite level dual approaches are set to enhance understanding of plant-pathogen interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laser microdissection: A powerful tool for genomics at cell level.

TL;DR: How the latest developments in protocols and methods have made LM a powerful and sometimes essential tool for genomic and proteomic analyzes of tiny amounts of biomolecules extracted from few cells isolated from a complex tissue, in their physiological context, thus offering new opportunities for understanding fundamental physiological and/or patho-physiological processes is seen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laser capture microdissection to study Bacillus cereus iron homeostasis gene expression during Galleria mellonella in vivo gut colonization.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used laser-capture microdissection (LCM) to select precise areas in the gut lumen from frozen whole larval cryo-sections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbiome analysis from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues: Current challenges and future perspectives.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors summarize all aspects of microbiome studies from FFPE tissues including the challenges associated with working highly degraded DNA, best practices for reducing environmental contamination, and propose solutions to address these issues.

Laser Microdissection: a Sample Preparation Technique for Plant Micrometabolic Profiling

TL;DR: Laser microdissection is a powerful sampling technique for plant micrometabolic profiling and metabolomics research and the wide application of this method for high-resolution plant metabolite analysis is indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Concurrent host-pathogen gene expression in the lungs of pigs challenged with Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae

TL;DR: This is the first study investigating the concurrent transcriptional response of both bacteria and host at the site of infection during porcine respiratory infection, and demonstrates the applicability of high-throughput RT-qPCR for the elucidation of dual-organism gene expression analysis during infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microdissection and the study of cancer pathways.

TL;DR: Improved techniques of tissue fixation and microdissection, supplemented with ancillary technology such as pre-amplification, have permitted the use of increasingly smaller quantities of material for the study of cancer pathways, and it is now possible to analyze many of the genetic changes that precede cancer, thereby identifying populations "at risk" for developing malignancies in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of E. coli-induced prostatic inflammation on expression of androgen-responsive genes and transforming growth factor beta 1 cascade genes in rats.

TL;DR: This work has investigated the effects of prostatic inflammation on expression levels of androgen‐responsive genes and growth factors in the rat prostate and found that prostatic hyperplasia is associated with elevated levels of these genes and factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial manipulation of cells and organelles using single electrode dielectrophoresis.

TL;DR: A simple and low cost dielectrophoretic device for picking out and relocating single target cells and is capable of redistributing intracellular organelles is described.
