Hi, I am planning to check the difference of gene expression (including coding and non-coding genes) for RNA of a time course during induced differentiation of MSC (the mesenchymal stem cells). I have performed induction of two patient's clones and two clones of normal individuals. For each of the four clones, I reserved RNA at 10 time spots (Day0, Day4, Day7,......) during the differentiation course with triplication (3 wells for each time spot of each clone). I also did a non-induced control experiment of the four clones. So I have reserved quite a lot of RNA on my hand
4 (two patient's clones and two normal clones) * 10 (time spots) * 3 (triplicates) * 2 (induced and non-induced) = 240
and sequencing all of them would be too expensive.
May I have your suggestions on how to design a RNA-seq experiment for the materials I had? Thank you very much in advance!

The human gut contains trillions of microorganisms that impact digestion, immune functions, and overall health1. Despite major breakthroughs, we’re only beginning to understand the full extent of the microbiome’s influence on health and disease. Advances in next-generation sequencing and spatial biology have opened new windows into this complex environment, yet many questions remain. This article highlights two recent studies exploring how diet influences microbial...02-24-2025, 06:31 AM
