Automated assay of gene expression at cellular resolution.
We have recently developed an automated image processing method for obtaining quantitative values for average levels of gene expression at the resolution of a single cell. This method is described in the present paper. We place this method within a larger framework for the study of gene regulation in Drosophila, stressing that gene circuit models and improved data processing methods are mutuall...
متن کاملGenomic analysis of gene expression in C. elegans.
Until now, genome-wide transcriptional profiling has been limited to single-cell organisms. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is a well-characterized metazoan in which the expression of all genes can be monitored by oligonucleotide arrays. We used such arrays to quantitate the expression of C. elegans genes throughout the development of this organism. The results provide an estimate of the nu...
متن کاملGene expression changes associated with aging in C. elegans.
Great inroads into the understanding of aging have been made using C. elegans as a model system. Several genes have been identified that, when mutated, can extend lifespan. Yet, much about aging remains a mystery, and new technologies that allow the simultaneous assay of expression levels of thousands of genes have been applied to the question of how and why aging might occur. With correct expe...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical Expression of p53 and bcl2 in Colorectal Adenomas and Carcinomas Using Automated Cellular Imaging System
Background & Objective: The current approaches to reduce the risk of colorectal carcinoma are through the detection and removal of the precursor lesion” adenomatous polyps”. The study was conducted to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of p53 and bcl2 in colorectal adenomas and carcinomas. Patients and Methods: A total of 86 cases, 33 colorectal adenomas, 33 colorect...
متن کاملInfrared laser-induced gene expression for tracking development and function of single C. elegans embryonic neurons
Visualizing neural-circuit assembly in vivo requires tracking growth of optically resolvable neurites. The Caenorhabditis elegans embryonic nervous system, comprising 222 neurons and 56 glia, is attractive for comprehensive studies of development; however, embryonic reporters are broadly expressed, making single-neurite tracking/manipulation challenging. We present a method, using an infrared l...
