Porcine gene response following incision with energized devices

ABSTRACT: This study compares the gene expression changes in Sus scrofa in response to two different methods for abdominal surgical incisions ; electrosurgery and harmonic blade. As the use of laparoscopic surgery has become more widespread in recent years, the need has increased for minimally-invasive surgical devices that effectively cut and coagulate tissue with reduced tissue trauma. Although electrosurgery (ES) has been used for many generations, newly-developed ultrasonic devices (HARMONICÂ® Blade, HB) have been shown at a macroscopic level to offer better coagulation with less thermally-induced tissue damage. We sought to understand the differences between ES and HB at a microscopic level by comparing mRNA transcript and protein responses at the 3-day timepoint to incisions made by the devices in subcutaneous fat tissue in a porcine model This study used four 4-cm midline caudal abdominal incisions created with the test devices in two female pigs. The test devices were monopolar electrosurgery and Harmonic blade. Each animal had two Harmonic Blade incisions and two Electrosurgery incisions for a total of 8 incisions

Project description:Hemangioblasts are known as the common precursors for primitive hematopoietic and endothelial lineages. Their existence has been supported mainly by the observation that both cell types develop in close proximity and by in vitro differentiation and genetic studies. However, more compelling evidence will arise from tracking their cell fates using a lineage-specific marker. We report the identification of a hemangioblast-specific enhancer (Hb) located in the cis-regulatory region of chick Cerberus gene (cCer) that is able to direct the expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) to the precursors of yolk sac blood and endothelial cells in electroporated chick embryos. Moreover, we present the Hb-eGFP reporter as a powerful live imaging tool for visualizing hemangioblast cell fate and blood island morphogenesis. We hereby introduce the Hb enhancer as a valuable resource for genetically targeting the hemangioblast population as well as for studying the dynamics of vascular and blood cell development. We used microarray analysis of Hb-eGFP expressing cells to verify the expression of hemangioblast-specific genes in this cell population. In order to characterize the gene expression profile of the Hb-eGFP-positive population, we have isolated Hb-eGFP-positive cells and compared their expression profile with the control RFP-positive population. In brief, chicken embryos were electroporated at HH3 with Hb-eGFP and pCAGGS-RFP reporter constructs, observed under a fluorescence stereoscope and harvested at stage HH5-6 into three groups of four embryos each. Embryos were dissociated into single cell suspensions and the eGFP-positive and eGFP-negative/RFP-positive cell populations were sorted by Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS). Cell populations were collected simultaneously into two different tubes, containing RNAlater (Ambion) and subsequently used for RNA extraction. Total RNA was isolated from triplicates of each population, evaluated for RNA integrity, reverse transcribed, amplified and hybridized against six Affymetrix Chicken Genome microarrays.

Project description:Recent studies suggested that embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) may represent different pluripotent states as defined by gene expression profiles and differentiation potential. Here we addressed a contribution of a lineage stage-specific donor cell memory in modulating the functional properties of iPSCs. iPSCs were generated from hepatic lineage cells at an early (hepatoblast-derived, HB-iPSCs) and end stage (adult hepatocyte, AH-iPSCs) of hepatocyte differentiation as well as from mouse fetal fibroblasts (MEF-iPSCs) using a lentiviral vector encoding four pluripotency-inducing factors Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc. All resulting iPS cell lines acquired iPSCs phenotype as judged by the accepted criteria including morphology, expression of pluripotency markers, silencing of transducing factors, capacity of multilineage differentiation in teratoma assay and normal diploid karyotype. However, hepatoblasts were more susceptible to reprogramming than either AH or MEF, and HB-iPSCs were more efficient in directed differentiation towards hepatocytic lineage as compared to AH-iPSCs, MEF-iPSCs or mESCs. Extensive comparative transcriptome analyses of the early passage iPSCs, donor cells and mESCs revealed that despite global similarities in gene expression patterns between generated iPSCs and mESCs, HB-iPSCs retained a transcriptional memory (7 up- and 20 down-regulated genes) typical of the original cells. Continuous passaging of HB-iPSCs abolished most of these differences including a superior capacity of hepatic re-differentiation. These results suggest that retention of lineage stage-specific donor memory in iPSCs may facilitate differentiation into donor cell type. The identified gene set may be helpful to improve hepatic differentiation for therapeutic application in liver disease modeling. A total of 200 ng RNA from four independent biological replicates of MACS-sorted mESC and iPSC were linearly amplified according to manufactures’ specification (Ambion, Austin, Tx,). For in vitro transcription (IVT), reactions were incubated for 16 h at 37ºC. The efficiency of the single round amplification was measured by NanoDrop (ND1000, Thermo Scientific). Hybridization, washing, detection (Cy3-streptavidin, Amersham Biosciences, GE Healthcare), and scanning were performed on an illumina iScan system (Illumina) using reagents and following protocols supplied by the manufacturer. The biotinylated cRNA (750 ng/sample) was hybridized on Sentrix beadchips human Ref-8v3 for 18 h at 58ºC while rocking (5 rpm).

Project description:This study aimed to quantify the regulation of transcripts in the hairy skin of the back of adult rats in the condition of loss of sensory and autonomic (sympathetic) innervation (i.e., denervated). Denervated skin has reduced wound healing capacity, reduced proliferation of epidermal progenitor cells, and also expresses factors that regulate ingrowth of sensory and sympathetic axons from neighboring regions of innervated skin. It was expected that this quantification f transcript regulation would offer insight into the general and specific mechanisms that may contribute to these important biological processes. All animals were adult (200-250g) Sprague-Dawley female rats. Three conditions were examined. Groups were naive (n=6), 7-day denervated skin (n=5), and 14-day (n=5) denervated skin. Denervation preparations: Full-thickness incision along long-axis of the body 1cm to right of midline (to avoid injuring skin to be sampled). Incision was centered rostro-caudally on the T13 (thoracic 13) costo-vertebral angle so as to allow access to the T9-L2 (lumbar 2) cutaneous nerves. Skin was reflected to the left and the left T9, T10, L1, and L2 dorsal and lateral cutaneous nerves were isolated, ligated with 7-0 monofilament suture close to their exit from the body wall, and transected. Approximately 5mm of the distal portion of the nerve was resected. The T11 nerves were left unperturbed and were not isolated from the surrounding fascia. This generated two strips of skin that were devoid of sensory and autonomic innervation (those strips served by the T9 and T10 nerves, and by the L1 and L2 nerves). Between these denervated strips of skin was a strip of skin that retained the sensory and autonomic axons supplied by T11 nerves. The denervated zones were identified by mapping the cutaneous trunk muscle (CTM) reflex (see Petruska-JC et al. (2013) Journal of Comparative Neurology; Diamond-J et al., (1992) J Neuroscience), and the border marked with pen and remarked every few days. The samples were taken from the rostral (T9/10) denervated zone. Samples from naive animals (no denervation) were taken from the same region, using the dorsal cutaneous nerves as registration landmarks. Animals displayed no signs of overgrooming of the denervated skin. Because the CTM inserts onto the dermis of this region of skin, samples necessarily include both skin and underlying CTM (which is innervated from another source so was not denervated in the experiment).
