Project description:In this study we used the Affymetrix Barley 1 GeneChip to investigate transcriptome responses of barley cv. Morex to low temperature, including triplicated measurements of cold, freeze/thaw cycles and de-acclimation over 33 days. Experiment Overall Design: Plants were grown at 20ºC for seven days and subject to a symmetrical cycle of acclimation, cold, freeze-thaw, and deacclimation. Chilling began by decreasing the temperature overnight from 20ºC to 4ºC at a rate of 1.3ºCâ¢h-1 and maintaining temperatures of 4 ºC in the day and 2ºC at night for 5 days. Freeze-thaw cycling lasted 12 days with day temperatures of 4ºC and night temperatures gradually decreasing from -2ºC the first night to -4ºC for three nights and -10ºC for four nights, then recovering to -4ºC for three nights and -2ºC for one night. This treatment was designed to allow daily freeze-thaw cycling and protein synthesis. Chilling conditions (4ºC day, 2ºC night) were resumed for five days, followed by deacclimation with increasing temperature to 20ºC overnight and maintaining for three days. Sampling was done at four different times, each at the 11th hour of light to avoid circadian effects: 1) before chilling treatment, 2) five days after initiation of chilling treatment, 3) eight days into freeze-thaw treatment and 4) three days into de-acclimation.

Project description:To investigate the response of Arabidopsis thaliana plants to non-freezing, cool temperatures, we subjected four week old plants to various chilling temperatures at defined times during the diurnal cycle to control for diurnal effects on transcription. From the same plants, metabolites and enzyme activities were measured as well. Interestingly a gradual change could be observed over a wide range of temperatures. Some of which could be attributed to the CBF program. Experiment Overall Design: Arabidopsis thaliana rosettes from 4 week old plants at a time point four hours into the light-period were transfered to various "chilling" temperatures (20 [control], 17, 14, 12, 10 and 8°C] and harvested after 6 or 78 hours (both 10 hours into the light period). Experiment Overall Design: 6 continuous treatments X 2 timepoints X 2 replicates

Project description:How do the transcript levels of leaf-expressed genes change in a normal day-night cycle? The interest is in genes that are regulated by the circadian clock and the diurnal component (i.e. light, metabolite changes). Plants were grown on soil in a 12/12 h light/dark rythm at 20°C day and night. 5 weeks after germination the rosettes of the non-flowering plants were harvested, 15 plants per sample. Plants were harvested at 6 timepoints every 4 hours beginning with the end of the night (still in darkness).

Project description:Internal sugar and light specific dependent regulation of leaf gene expression was addressed by changing [CO2] to lower than compensation point [CO2] in combination with light or prolonged darkness. Plants were grown on soil in a 12/12 h light/dark rhythm at 20°C day and night and under normal [CO2]. 5 weeks after germination, the above-ground rosettes of the non-flowering plants were harvested, 12 plants per sample. Plants were harvested 4hrs after the end of night (i) under low (< 50 ppm) [CO2] and 150 µE fluorescent light , (ii) under normal [CO2] and light, and, (iii) under low [CO2] and prolonged darkness. The low [CO2] treatment started 30 min before the end of night and stopped with harvesting. Experiment Overall Design: 2 biological replicates of plants under 3 treatments (4hrs low CO2+light, 4hrs low CO2+prolonged darkness, and 4hrs normal CO2+light).

Project description:We have previously demonstrated that pre-B-cell colony enhancing factor (PBEF) ais a biomarker in sepsis and sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) with genetic variants conferring ALI susceptibility118. In the current study, we explored the mechanistic participation of PBEF in ALI and ventilator-induced associated lung injury (VIALI). Initial in vitro studies and demonstrated rhPBEF aas a direct rat neutrophil chemotactic factor in vitro producing marked in vivo increases in BAL leukocytes (PMNs) in vivo following (intratracheal injection (,IT) in C57B6 mice. These latter changes were accompanied by increased BAL levels of the PMN chemoattractants (, KC and MIP2), and modest changes in lung vascular and but were not associated with significant increasesin alveolar permeability. We next explored the potential synergism between rhPBEF administration (IT) and a mechanical ventilation model of modest VILI lung injury (4 hours, 30 ml/kg tidal volume). We and observed dramatic synergistic increases in BAL PMNs, and both BAL protein and cytokine levels (IL-6, TNF-?, KC). Gene expression profiling Microarray analysis further supported a major role for PBEF in the induction of gene modules associated with ALI and VALI (NFkB pathway, leukocyte extravasation, apoptosis, toll receptor signaling). Finally, we exposed wild type and heterozygous PBEF+/- mice (targeted deletion of a single PBEF allele deletion) to a model of severe VILImechanical ventilation-induced lung injury (4 hours, 40 ml/kg tidal volume). PBEF+/- mice were significantly protected from VIALI-associated increases in BAL protein and BAL IL-6 levels and exhibited significantly reduced expression of ALI-associated gene expression modules. Together, these results indicate that PBEF is a key inflammatory mediator intimately involved in both the development and severity of ventilator-induced ALI. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression induced by rhPBEF treatment and VALI. Experiment Overall Design: animals were treated by PBS, rhPBEF (IT administration), VILI (4 hours, 30 ml/kg tidal volume), or both.

Project description:we analyzed pathogen-induced changes in the transcriptome of Vitis vinifera âCabernet sauvignonâ and Vitis aestivalis âNortonâ by conducting a large-scale study to measure transcript abundance at 0, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours post-treatment in conidiospore- and mock-inoculated leaves using Affymetrix GeneChip Vitis vinifera Genome Array Experiment Overall Design: sixty plants were grown in each of two identical growth chamber labeled as Inoculation and Mock-inoculation under same conditions. Pairs of vines of same size were labeled, one with an âIâ, the other with a âMâ prefix for âinoculatedâ and âmockâ. The vines in each pair received the same ID number. This resulted in balanced groups for inoculated and mock-inoculated vines. âIâ and âMâ vines of a pair were placed in corresponding locations on the bench of the two growth chambers. The locations of the vines were determined by randomizing their ID numbers. Thus, the âIâ and âMâ groups were balanced according to their size and to their locations within the growth chamber. All vines were positioned at the same height from the light source. The locations of the individual plants within the growth chamber were recorded. At a time point, 10 randomly selected pairs of plants were sampled. (For example, at 8 hours post-inoculation, vines I-3, I-17, I -23, ..etc., and vines M-3, M-17, M-23, ...etc. were sampled from the âIâ and the âMâ growth chambers, respectively). The 10 corresponding leaves were combined into a single sample. At the next time point, another set of randomly selected 10 pairs were sampled from among the remaining plants, and so on. This random selection was independent from the random selection implemented to determine the location of the vines in the growth chambers

Project description:Plants are continuously exposed to a myriad of abiotic and biotic stresses. However, the molecular mechanisms by which these stress signals are perceived and transduced are poorly understood. To begin to identify primary stress signal transduction components we have focused on genes that respond rapidly (within 5 min) to stress signals. Because it has been hypothesized that detection of physical stress is a mechanism common to mounting a response against a broad range of environmental stresses, we have utilized mechanical wounding as the stress stimulus and performed whole genome microarray analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana leaf tissue. This led to the identification of a number of rapid wound responsive (RWR) genes. Comparison of RWR genes with published abiotic and biotic stress microarray datasets demonstrates a large overlap across a wide range of environmental stresses. Interestingly, RWR genes also exhibit a striking level and pattern of circadian regulation, with induced and repressed genes displaying antiphasic rhythms. Using bioinformatic analysis, we identified a novel motif overrepresented in the promoters of RWR genes, herein designated as the Rapid Stress Response Element (RSRE). We demonstrate in transgenic plants that multimerized RSREs are sufficient to confer a rapid response to both biotic and abiotic stresses in vivo, thereby establishing the functional involvement of this motif in primary transcriptional stress responses. Collectively, our data provide evidence for a novel cis-element that is distributed across the promoters of an array of diverse stress-responsive genes, poised to respond immediately and coordinately to stress signals. This structure suggests that plants may have a transcriptional network resembling the general stress signaling pathway in yeast and that the RSRE element may provide the key to this coordinate regulation. Experiment Overall Design: Three biological replicates of pooled plants were used for each treatment (Not wounded vs 5 min wounded). Each biological replicate is comprised of 2 technical replicates and a dye swap was performed for each technical replicate.

Project description:The aim of this study was to investigate whether the differences in memory decline associated with aging are a result of differences in gene expression. We first categorized age-unimpaired and age-impaired rats based on their performance in the Morris Water Maze and then isolated messenger RNA from the CA1 hippocampal region of each animal to interrogate Affymetrix microarrays. Microarray analysis (p<0.005) identified a set of 50 genes that were transcribed differently in age-unimpaired animals that had successfully learned a spatial task compared to aged learning-impaired animals and a variety of groups designed to control for all non-learning aspects of exposure to the water maze paradigm. Experiment Overall Design: a total of 79 samples were analyzed including aged and young rats. One chip was interrogated per animal. Analysis of aged rat data includes 44 samples. Controls include cage controls, yoked controls (no platform), visible platform controls.
