Project description:To further development of our mRNA or lincRNA expression approach to ER stress, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify ER stress-responsible genes. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) deficient in each ER stress mediator (XBP1, ATF4, ATF6a or ATF6b) were treated with tunicamycin for 12 or 24 hrs. Genes responsible for tunicamycin in each mediator-dependent manner were extracted and categorized by Gene Ontology. Among them, expression of five ER-related genes (Derl1, Ssr3, Magt1, Bet1 and Mcfd2) was quantified in the RNA samples from COS7 cells by real-time PCR, confirming existence of similar mechanisms of trancriptional activation in ER stress by tunicamycin treatment. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) deficient in each ER stress mediator (XBP1, ATF4, ATF6a or ATF6b) were treated with 2ug/mL tunicamycin for 12 or 24 hrs. Two independent experiments were performed for each mediator-deficient MEF at each time (untreated, 12 or 24 hrs). Genes responsible for tunicamycin in each mediator-dependent manner were extracted and categorized by Gene Ontology in GeneRanker program of Genomatix platform.
Project description:To identify the target genes of integrated stress reponse (ISR) in WAT and BAT, we have employed whole genome microarray expression in WAT and BAT specific Fv2E-PERK transgenic mice. The mAP::Fv2E-PERK transgenic mice were injected by AP20187 or mock.
Project description:To further development of our miRNA expression approach to ER stress, we have employed miRNA microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify ER stress-responsible ones. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) deficient in a ER stress mediator ATF6a were treated with tunicamycin for 12 or 24 hrs. miRNAs responsible for tunicamycin-treatment for 12hrs in ATF6a-dependent manner were extracted. Among them, expression of three miRNAs (miR-26a, miR-27b, miR-143) was quantified in the RNA samples from the same as the microarray by real-time PCR. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) deficient in a ER stress mediator ATF6a were treated with 2ug/mL tunicamycin for 12 or 24 hrs. Two independent experiments were performed at each time (untreated, 12 or 24 hrs). miRNAs responsible for tunicamycin-treatment for 12hrs in ATF6a-dependent manner were extracted.

Project description:In response to different cellular stressors, the ISR kinases, PERK, PKR, HRI and GCN2, activate downstream transcriptional programs. While the core ISR transcription program is well characterized, markers that are specific to each individual ISR kinase activation pathway are not known. To identify markers that are induced by PERK or GCN2, but not the other ISR kinases, we subjected WT, GCN2-/-, and PERK-/- MEFs to amino acid starvation (RPMI 1640 SILAC -Lys -Arg) or Thapsigargin (200nM) treatment for 6 hours to activate the GCN2 and PERK pathways, respectively and performed RNA sequencing.
Project description:To identify the target genes of integrated stress reponse (ISR) in skeletal muscle, we have employed whole genome microarray expression in muscle specific Fv2E-PERK transgenic mice and C2C12 myotubes expressed in Fv2E-PERK. As a result, we identified that Fgf21 mRNA expression was commonly induced in skeletal muscle and C2C12.
