Project description:The water extract of the leaf of B. racemosa had been reported to posses high phenolic content and showed high antioxidant activities. However, scientific data on the molecular mechanisms underlying the beneficial properties of the leaf extract are still lacking. In this study, the effects of the leaf extract on the expression of genes in cultured HepG2 cells were investigated using microarray technology. The leaf extract significantly regulated the expression of genes involved with consequential impact on the glycolysis, gluconeogenesis and metabolism of xenobiotics. HepG2 cells were seeded and treated with an 50 µg/ml of the water leaf extract of B. racemosa for 24 h. Following this, cells were trypsinized and then preciptated by centrifugation. Cells were washed with phosphate buffer saline (PBS) before total cellular RNA (tcRNA) were extracted from the cells. tcRNA from both untreated and B. racemosa leaf-treated HepG2 cells were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. All experiments were done in triplicate. The microarray analysis was performed on Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 S.T Array according to the manufacturer's protocol. The gene sets were then subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) in the Partek Genomics Suite software to determine significantly expressed genes which was set according to P value less than 0.05 and fold change difference of equal to or greater than 1.5.

Project description:Abiotic stresses such as salinity are very important factors limiting rice growth and productivity around the world. Affymetrix rice genome array containing 48,564 japonica and 1,260 indica sequences was used to analyze the gene expression pattern of rice responsive to salinity stress, try to elucidate the difference of genome-wide gene expression profiling of two contrasting rice genotypes in response to salt stress and to discover the salinity related genes and gene interaction and networks. Under salinity condition, the number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in 177-103 was more than that in IR64, and most of up-regulated DEGs in 177-103 are response to stress. But in IR64, most of up-regulated DEGs are transcription related genes. The DEGs under salinity showed very strong tissue specificity, the number of DEGs in leaf was more than that in root. A lot of genes differentially expressed by exogenous ABA treatment under salinity condition, such as Leaf senescence protein, 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate synthase 2 precursor and Protein of unknown function DUF26 were induced by ABA and contributed to salinity tolerance. In this study, the gene expression patterns across two organs including leaves and roots at seedling stage were characterized under control, salinity, salinity+ABA treatments by using the Affymetrix rice microarray platform based on a salinity tolerant rice line derived from IR64.

Project description:Critically short telomeres activate cellular senescence or apoptosis, as mediated by the tumor suppressor p53, but in the absence of this checkpoint response, telomere dysfunction engenders chromosomal aberrations and cancer. Here, analysis of p53-regulated genes activated in the setting of telomere dysfunction identified Zfp365 (ZNF365 in humans) as a direct p53 target that promotes genome stability. Germline polymorphisms in the ZNF365 locus are associated with increased cancer risk, including those associated with telomere dysfunction. On the mechanistic level, ZNF365 suppresses expression of a subset of common fragile sites (CFS) including telomeres. In the absence of ZNF365, defective telomeres engage in aberrant recombination of telomere ends, leading to increased telomere sister chromatid exchange (T-SCE) and formation of anaphase DNA bridges, including ultra-fine DNA bridges (UFB), and ultimately increased cytokinesis failure and aneuploidy. Thus, the p53-ZNF365 axis contributes to genomic stability in the setting of telomere dysfunction. We expressed an inducible p53 allele encoding a p53-estrogen receptor fusion protein (p53ER) that becomes functional upon addition of 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4-OHT) in TKO cells. We chose a time point of 4 hours post-4-OHT induction to catalog potential direct targets.

Project description:The capacity of the hematopoietic system to promptly respond to peripheral demands relies on adequate pools of progenitors able to transiently proliferate and differentiate in a regulated manner. However, little is known about factors that may restrain progenitor maturation to maintain their reservoirs. In addition to a profound defect in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal, conditional knockout mice for the Pbx1 proto-oncogene have a significant reduction in lineage-restricted progenitors, including common myeloid progenitors (CMPs) and, to a lesser extent, granulocyte-monocyte progenitors (GMPs). Through analysis of purified progenitor proliferation, differentiation capacity and transcriptional profiling, we demonstrate that in the absence of Pbx1 the CMP pool is reduced due to aberrantly rapid myeloid maturation, associated with decreased expression of Meis1 and its targets including Flt3. BM cells were obtained from multiple bones of individual three to five week old Tie2Cre+.Pbx1-/f or Tie2Cre+.Pbx1+/f control mice (4-5 biological replicates/group). CMPs and GMPs were sorted by flow cytometry according to the following markers: Lin-/c-Kit+/Sca-/CD34+/CD16/32int, and Lin-/c-Kit+/Sca-/CD34+/CD16/32high, respectively, prior to RNA extraction.

Project description:SIRT6 is a member of a highly conserved family of NAD+-dependent deacetylases with various roles in metabolism, stress resistance, and life span. SIRT6- deficient mice develop normally but succumb to a lethal hypoglycemia early in life; however, the mechanism underlying this hypoglycemia remained unclear. Here, we demonstrate that SIRT6 functions as a histone H3K9 deacetylase to control the expres- sion of multiple glycolytic genes. Specifically, SIRT6 appears to function as a corepressor of the transcrip- tion factor Hif1a, a critical regulator of nutrient stress responses. Consistent with this notion, SIRT6-defi- cient cells exhibit increased Hif1a activity and show increased glucose uptake with upregulation of glycolysis and diminished mitochondrial respiration. Our studies uncover a role for the chromatin factor SIRT6 as a master regulator of glucose homeostasis and may provide the basis for novel therapeutic approaches against metabolic diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. RNA was prepared from muscle of three SIRT6 wild type and KO mice, and hybridized onto an Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array.

Project description:The acquisition of a proliferating cell status from a quiescent state as well as the shift between proliferation and differentiation are key developmental steps in skeletal-muscle stem cells (satellite cells) to provide proper muscle regeneration. However, how satellite-cell proliferation is regulated, though, is not fully understood. Here, we report that the c-isoform of the transcription factor Pitx2 increases cell proliferation in myoblasts by down-regulating the miRNAs miR-15b, miR-23b, miR-106b, and miR-503. This Pitx2c-miRNA pathway also regulates cell proliferation in early-activated satellite cells, enhancing the Myf5+ satellite cells and thereby promoting their commitment to a myogenic cell fate. This study reveals unknown functions of several miRNAs in myoblast and satellite-cell behaviour and thus may have future applications in regenerative medicine. mirVana microarrays (Ambion) were used to profile microRNA signature at different Pitx2 overexpression conditions, namely two different doses (4 and 8 µg CMV-Pitx2c plasmid, respectively) after 24 hours of transfection in SOL8 skeletal myogenic cells. 20 µg of total RNA was used to hybridize two distinct microRNA microarrays on each condition analyzed.

Project description:Dietary protein malnutrition is manifested as amino acid deprivation of individual cells, which activates an amino acid response (AAR) that alters cellular functions, in part, by regulating transcriptional and posttranscriptional mechanisms. The AAR was activated in HepG2 human hepatoma cells, and the changes in mRNA content were analyzed by microarray expression profiling. The results documented that 1,507 genes were differentially regulated by P < 0.001 and by more than twofold in response to the AAR, 250 downregulated and 1,257 upregulated. The spectrum of altered genes reveals that amino acid deprivation has far-reaching implications for gene expression and cellular function. Among those cellular functions with the largest numbers of altered genes were cell growth and proliferation, cell cycle, gene expression, cell death, and development. Potential biological relationships between the differentially expressed genes were analyzed by computer software that generates gene networks. Proteins that were central to the most significant of these networks included c-myc, polycomb group proteins, transforming growth factor ?1, nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2-related factor 2, FOS/JUN family members, and many members of the basic leucine zipper superfamily of transcription factors. Although most of these networks contained some genes that were known to be amino acid responsive, many new relationships were identified that underscored the broad impact that amino acid stress has on cellular function.

Project description:Predicting drug-induced liver injury in a preclinical setting remains challenging, as cultured primary human hepatocytes (PHHs), pluripotent stem cell-derived hepatocyte-like cells (HLCs), and hepatoma cells exhibit poor drug biotransformation capacity. We here demonstrate that hepatic functionality depends more on cellular metabolism and extracellular nutrients than on developmental regulators. Specifically, we demonstrate that increasing extracellular amino acids beyond the nutritional need of HLCs and HepG2 cells induces glucose independence, mitochondrial function, and the acquisition of a transcriptional profile that is closer to PHHs. Moreover, we show that these high levels of amino acids are sufficient to drive HLC and HepG2 drug biotransformation and liver-toxin sensitivity to levels similar to those in PHHs. In conclusion, we provide data indicating that extracellular nutrient levels represent a major determinant of cellular maturity and can be utilized to guide stem cell differentiation to the hepatic lineage.

Project description:The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the site of secretory lipoprotein production and de novo cholesterol synthesis, yet little is known about how these activities are coordinated with each other, or with the activity of the COPII machinery, which transports ER cargo to the Golgi. The Sar1B component of this machinery is mutated in Chylomicron Retention Disorder, establishing that this Sar1 isoform secures delivery of dietary lipids into the circulation. We used microarrays to investigate the effect of overexpression of Sar1 isoforms and a constitutively active mutant form of Sar1B, Sar1B:H79G, on global gene expression in rat hepatoma cell line, McArdle RH7777 and identified a strong down-regulation of cholesterol biosynthetic gene mRNA expression in the Sar1B:H79G-, but not the wild-type Sar1A- or Sar1B-overexpressing cell lines. RNA was extracted from cell cultures of control McArdle RH7777, and transgenic lines overexpressing human Sar1-isoforms: one for Sar1A, two for Sar1B and two expressing a constitutively active mutant form of Sar1B, Sar1B:H79G, that cannot complete GTP hydrolysis, and hybridized on Affymetrix GeneChip Rat Genome 230 2.0 arrays.
