Project description:Osteoclast derived from macrophage lineage cells are responsible for bone resorption and important in bone remodeling. Emerging of a new discipline-osteoimmunology highlights the important connection between immunology and bone biology. We had mouse osteoclast's RNA samples analyzed by the consortium’s gene microarray and identified a number of significant changes in expression of genes involved in glycan biosynthesis. Osteoclasts were treated with: control, Rankl (Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL), tunicamycin, and both rankl and tunicamycin. RNA preparations from osteoclasts purified from mice: control (1,2,3), Rankl (1,2,3), tunicamycin (1,2,3), and both rankl and tunicamycin (1,2,3) were sent to the Microarray Core (E). The RNA was amplified, labeled, and hybridized to the GLYCOv3 microarrays.

Project description:Trafficking of leukocytes (dendritic cells, memory T cells, neutrophils) and tumor cells through the lymphatic network is a key process in inflammation and immunity and an important mechanism in metastatic spread of human cancers (1-3). Such trafficking involves both communication with and passage across lymphatic endothelium, the distinct endothelium that lines lymphatic vessels within the peripheral tissues and forms the lymphatic sinuses within lymph nodes. However, in comparison with blood vascular endothelium, there is only a rudimentary understanding of the molecular phenotype of lymphatic endothelium, and only a basic knowledge of the glycoconjugates that regulate leukocyte-endothelial and tumor cell-endothelial interactions in the lymphatic compartment. We would anticipate that changes in glycosylation of LEC cell surface proteins following activation might affect important functions associated withy LEC including eg. interactions with leukocytes and/or sequestration of GAG-binding chemokines. We already have shown that ligand binding to the lymphatic endothelial hyaluronan receptor LYVE-1 is reversibly masked by terminal sialation in LEC and that functional regulation of LYVE-1 is likely to be important in inflammation. An advantage of our proposal is that we can routinely isolate primary LEC in relatively large numbers, and have the necessary ethical approval to do so from human tissue.

Project description:Bone remodeling is a tightly regulated process that engages degradation and biogenesis of the bone matrix. The process is controlled by two major cell types, bone forming cells-osteoblasts and bone-degrading cells-osteoclasts. We are interested in the bone-resorption mechanism mediated by osteoclasts and wish to identify glycosylation genes that are regulated during the formation of osteoclast cells and determine the function of glycosylation and glycan-binding proteins in the osteoclastogenesis. We propose to examine the gene expression patterns that are altered during the osteoclastogenesis using mouse glyco-chips and RNA samples isolated from osteoclast precursors and mature osteoclasts prepared from mouse bone marrows. 6 chips are requested for the analysis. RNA preparations from mouse bone marrow MG2, MG4, MG6 (mature osteoclasts) and MG1, MG3, MG5 osteoclasts precursors (control) were sent to the Microarray Core (E). The RNA was amplified, labeled, and hybridized to the GLYCOv3 microarrays.

Project description:Dr. Lebrilla's lab is working on another set of transcriptomics experiments which will measure whether HMO (human milk oligosacharides) elicit a differential response on Caco2 in the presence of B.infantis. They wish to supplement the data obtained with the Illumina platform with glycan-related expression data obtained with the Gene-chips to achieve a more complete understanding on how Caco2 cells respond to the presence of HMOs and B.infantis. The transcriptomics data is being complemented by qPCR based bacterial-epithelial cells binding assays, and glycan arrays assays for which they have initiated a collaboration with the CFG Core H (David Smith). The influence, signaling and adhesion between Bifidobacterium infantis, a probiotic microorganism abundant in infant feces, and Caco2 epithelial cells. Our hypothesis is that HMOs act as signaling molecules for both Caco2 cells and B. infantis to indicate the presence in the gut, of a nutrient niche adapted for the nourishment and recruitment of HMO-consuming probiotic microorganism. HMOs therefore could play a role in the expression and binding to GBPs both on epithelial cells and in probiotic gut microorganisms. Preliminary transcriptomics data analysis obtained by using the Illumina Human Ref-8 Expression Bead Chip, has revealed that co-incubation of Caco2 cells with HMO upregulates genes belonging to chemokines, adhesion molecules, growth factors and glycan degradation, thus indicating that HMOs are actively recognized by these cells. We are working on another set of transcriptomics experiments which will measure whether HMO elicit a differential response on Caco2 in the presence of B.infantis. We wish to supplement the data obtained with the Illumina platform with glycan-related expression data obtained with the Gene-chips to achieve a more complete understanding on how Caco2 cells respond to the presence of HMOs and B.infantis. The transcriptomics data is being complemented by qPCR based bacterial-epithelial cells binding assays, and glycan arrays assays for which we have initiated a collaboration with the CFG Core H (David Smith). We are requesting the analysis of 16 RNA samples from Caco2 cells on the Glyco-gene chips, for testing respectively 4 independent biological replicates for each of the 4 different co-incubation conditions. RNA preparations from Caco2 cells were sent to Microarray Core (E). The RNA was amplified, labeled, and hybridized to GLYCO_v3 microarrays.

Project description:To determine the effect of insulin deficiency on global changes to expression of glycan related genes in the liver. See: Joseph R. Bishop,‡ Erin Foley,‡§ Roger Lawrence,‡ and Jeffrey D. Esko‡1 (2010) Insulin-dependent Diabetes Mellitus in Mice Does Not Alter Liver Heparan Sulfate* J Biol Chem. 2010 May 7; 285(19): 14658–14662. We are studying the glycan changes caused by insulin-deficient diabetes in the mouse liver. We would like to determine whether insulin-deficiency causes global changes to expression of glycan-related genes in the liver. Male C57BL/6 mice (4 weeks of age) were purchased from Jackson Laboratory and maintained in a temperature-controlled (25 °C) facility with a 12-h light/dark cycle. The derivation and genotyping of Ndst1f/fAlbCre+ mice have been described previously (16). Mice were fed laboratory rodent chow (Harlan-Teklad) ad libitum except when fasting blood specimens were obtained. Mice were made diabetic by administering 50 mg/kg body weight of streptozotocin (STZ; Sigma) intraperitoneally for 5 consecutive days. Because of variations in plasma triglycerides in females, only male mice were used in this study. Our preliminary results suggest glycosaminoglycan enzymes may be down-regulated, which may affect the turnover of lipids in the plasma. Liver RNA samples from 3 diabetic mice will be compared to 3 wildtype samples for properly controlled analysis.
