Project description:Ataxia telangiectasia (AT) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by neuronal degeneration, telangiectasias, acute cancer predisposition, and hypersensitivity to ionizing radiation (IR). The gene defective in AT, ATM (for AT-mutated), encodes a protein, pATM that has been found to have IR-inducible kinase activity. Cells from individuals with AT exhibit severely attenuated cell cycle checkpoints in response to gamma radiation exposure. pATM has been hypothesized to act as part of a complex that senses DNA damage, in particular, DNA double strand breaks. We are studying the pATM-dependent gene expression responses to a dose of 1.5 Gy radiation in lymphoblastoid cell lines from multiple individuals with either wild type or mutated ATM. The gene expression analyses were performed on Agilent Human 1A Oligo chips containing approximately 16,000 60mer probes. We identified a set of genes whose gene expression changes are ATM-dependent following exposure to 1.5 Gy IR. This set of genes was tested by real time quantitative PCR analysis. The study consists of one dose group - 1.5 Gray gamma radiation. Samples were collected 6 hr following irradiation (treated) or mock irradiation (controls) for each culture. Each culture has a treated sample and a control sample. There are cultures from 6 wild-type ATM individuals and cultures from 6 individuals that are ATM-deficient, for a total of 12 cultures. Hybridizations compared RNA extracted from each individual culture's treated sample against its corresponding control sample, and were performed as dye-flip duplicates (1 replicate in each direction). Hybridizations were performed on the Human 1A Oligo Chips using low input, direct labeling at Paradigm Genetics Laboratory. Microarray scanning was performed with the Agilent G2565AA Scanner. Paradigm Standard Operating Procedures were followed for quality analysis, sample labeling, microarray hybridization and washing, scanning, image analysis and initial data analysis.

Project description:High doses of genistein show an inhibitory effect on uterine leiomyoma (UtLM) cell proliferation. Using microarray analysis and Ingenuity Pathways AnalysisTM, we identified genes (up- or down-regulated, M-bM-^IM-%1.5 fold, P M-bM-^IM-$ 0.001), functions and signaling pathways that were altered following treatment with an inhibitory concentration of genistein (50 M-CM-,g/ml) in UtLM cells. Downregulation of TGF-M-CM-" signaling pathway genes, activin A, activin B, Smad3, TGF-M-CM-"2 and genes related to cell cycle regulation, with the exception of the upregulation of the CDK inhibitor P15, were identified and validated by real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction studies. Western blot analysis further demonstrated decreased protein expression of activin A and Smad3 in genistein-treated UtLM cells. Moreover, we found that activin A stimulated the growth of UtLM cells, and the inhibitory effect of genistein was partially abrogated in the presence of activin A. Overexpression of activin A and Smad3 were found in tissue samples of leiomyoma compared to matched myometrium, supporting the contribution of activin A and Smad3 in promoting the growth of UtLM cells. Taken together, these results suggest that downregulation of activin A and Smad3, both members of the TGF-M-CM-" pathway, may offer a mechanistic explanation for the inhibitory effect of a high-dose of genistein on UtLM cells, and might be potential therapeutic targets for treatment of clinical cases of uterine leiomyomas. Cells were treated with either genistein (50 M-NM-<g/ml) (4M-bM-^@M-^Y, 5, 7-Trihydroxyisoflavone; Sigma Chemical Company, St. Louis, MO, USA) or the vehicle control [0.3% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), Sigma] for 24 h. the samples from the flasks that received the same treatment were pooled, then concentrated to > 9 M-CM-,g/M-CM-,l by Microcon 30 columns (Amicon:Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA). Three replicates for the treatment, and one pooled control, were submitted for microarray analysis. Gene expression analysis was conducted using Agilent Whole Human Genome arrays (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA).

Project description:Seven novel and potent Raf small molecule kinase inhibitors were evaluated in 7-day oral repeat-dose rat toxicity studies. All compounds tested induced hyperplasia in multiple tissues. Microarrays were used to investigate transciptional changes associated by treatment with a single compound to gain insight into the cellular changes that may contribute to the tissue hyperplasia. Two groups (25 females/group) received oral daily dosing for 7 days of either Vehicle or compound C1 dosed at 100 mg/kg. Five animals from each group were euthanized on Days 1 (4-5 hrs post first dose; received 1 dose), 2 (received 1 dose), 3 (received 2 doses), 5 (received 4 doses) and 8 (received 7 doses). Bladder tissues were collected and profiled at all five time points. Stomach tissues were collected and profiled at the earliest two time points. A single day 3 animal was not available for genomic profiling; therefore, expression data was collected for a total of 49 bladder and 20 stomach samples.

Project description:The predatory choanoflagellate Salpingoeca rosetta has emerged as important model systems to study the evolution of multicellularity and chemical origin of bacterial-eukaryote communication mechanisms. In this study we elaborated on the function and possible proteogenic binding partners of the bacterial sulfonolipid IOR-1A, which serves as bacterial inhibitor of rosette formation in S. rosetta. To study the function of IOR-1A, a new, modular and scalable total synthesis of IOR-1A (six steps, 30% overall yield) was developed, which features a decarboxylative cross-coupling reaction of a desymmetrized tartaric acid derivative carrying a protected sulfonic acid moiety with an alkyl zink reagents of choice. Synthesis of twelve IOR derivates, including fluorescent and photoaffinity-based probes, allowed to determine the abundance of IOR-1A, evaluation of structure-activity relations, localization studies within S. rosetta and de novo chemical proteomic identification of IOR-binding proteins in bacteria and S. rosetta. The combined results will catalyse future studies aiming at deciphering the biochemical basis of cell differentiation processes within rosette formation of S. rosetta.

Project description:Transcription of immediate early genes (IEGs) in neurons is exquisitely sensitive to neuronal activity, but the mechanism underlying the earliest of these transcription events is largely unknown. Here we demonstrate that very fast IEGs (VF-IEGs) such as arc/arg3.1 are poised for rapid transcription by the stalling of RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) just downstream of the transcription start site. RNAi-depletion of two subunits of a mediator of Pol II stalling, Negative Elongation Factor, reduces Pol II occupancy of the arc promoter and compromises rapid induction of arc and other VF-IEGs. In contrast, reduction of Pol II stalling did not prevent expression of other fast IEGs (F-IEGs). These F-IEGs are expressed with comparatively slower kinetics and largely lack promoter proximal Pol II stalling. Taken together, our data strongly indicate that very fast kinetics of neuronal IEG expression require poised Pol II and suggest a role for this mechanism in transcription-dependent learning and memory. TTX withdrawal induced neuronal activity. To study activity-induced gene expression, neurons were treated with TTX for 48 hours and then TTX was washed out either for 15 minutes (W15) or for 45 minutes (W45). Gene expression was measured in these two groups in comparison to TTX treated neurons.

Project description:Acute toxic responses to a single 50 mg/kg oral dose of 1-napthylisothiocyanate (ANIT) were evaluated by microarray analysis of laser capture-microdissected rat biliary epithelium or hepatic parenchyma at 2 and 6 hours post-dose. Selective and dramatic differences between the biliary epithelium and the hepatic parenchyma were evident as soon as 2 hours at which time 375 genes were altered in biliary epithelium, but only a nominal 38 genes were altered in the hepatic parenchyma. Gene expression analysis revealed increased expression of genes involved in the unfolded protein response and ER stress in biliary epithelial cells, but no alteration of these genes in hepatocytes. By 6 hours post dose, 620 genes showed altered expression in biliary epithelium while there were only 32 genes altered in hepatic parenchyma. At this timepoint, analysis of the biliary epithelium revealed decreased expression of genes involved in the unfolded protein response compared to the 2 hour time point, and increased expression at 6 hours of genes involved in protein degradation such as proteasome-ubquination pathways, and genes associated with cell death. Our analysis revealed early loss of biliary epithelial integrity and attempts at repair of damage with subsequent activation of protein degradation and cell fate decisions leading to death pathways within a 6 hour time course. During this same time interval, hepatic parenchymal gene expression changed little and mainly reflected a decrease in enterohepatic circulation of bile acids and an increase in ribosomal proteins which may signal an adaptive change to reduced bile acid delivery to the liver and an increased demand for bile acids and glutathione-mediated transport of ANIT. This versatile approach provides a precise evaluation of distinct cell populations, biliary epithelium and hepatic parenchyma, in situ. (Cullen et.al., Toxicologic Pathology 2010) Rat were exposed to a single dose of 1-napthylisothiocyanate (ANIT) or vehicle. Laser capture-microdissection was used to isolate rat biliary epithelium or hepatic parenchyma at 2 and 6 hours post-dose. Affymetrix GeneChips and Rosetta Resolver were used to determine differential gene expression.

Project description:Background: Current evidence indicates that even low-level lead (Pb) exposure can have detrimental effects, especially in children. We tested the hypothesis that Pb exposure alters gene expression patterns in peripheral blood cells and that these changes reflect dose-specific alterations in the activity of particular pathways. Methodology/Principal Finding: Using Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays, we examined gene expression changes in the peripheral blood of female Balb/c mice following exposure to per os lead acetate trihydrate or plain drinking water for two weeks and after a two-week recovery period. Data sets were RMA-normalized and dose-specific signatures were generated using established methods of supervised classification and binary regression. Pathway activity was analyzed using the ScoreSignatures module from GenePattern. Conclusions/Significance: The low-level Pb signature was 93% sensitive and 100% specific in classifying samples a leave-one-out crossvalidation. The high-level Pb signature demonstrated 100% sensitivity and specificity in the leave-one-out crossvalidation. These two signatures exhibited dose-specificity in their ability to predict Pb exposure and had little overlap in terms of constituent genes. The signatures also seemed to reflect current levels of Pb exposure rather than past exposure. Finally, the two doses showed differential activation of cellular pathways. Low-level Pb exposure increased activity of the interferon-gamma pathway, whereas high-level Pb exposure increased activity of the E2F1 pathway.

Project description:Male Fischer rats were fed a control diet or a diet supplemented with 50, 500 or 1000 ppm Phenobarbital. The 500 and 1000 ppm PB doses induced a transient hyperplasia and a sustained hepatomegaly in treated animals. The animals were sacrificed and liver miRNAome was profiled in three animals per group after 1, 3, 7, and 14 days of treatment. The aim was to investigate the time and dose dependent effects of phenobarbital treatment on the liver miRNAome Three animals were profiled from control or each treatment group after 1, 3, 7, and 14 days

Project description:This dataset is a four-ligand x three-genotype Affymetrix microarray analysis of the regulation of liver genes in the mouse by the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR). 24 female mice of mixed background (C57BL/6x129Sv) were divided into three groups: wild-type (contains only mouse CAR; mCAR), CAR.KO = knockout mice (mice ablated for mCAR gene; mCAR -/-), and CAR.AH= contains human CAR transgene under the control of the mouse albumin promoter in the mCAR -/- background. Each of the three groups underwent four different treatment regimens: CO = corn oil vehicle control, PB = phenobarbitol (100 mg/kg/day), an anti-convulsant agent which can translocate both mCAR and hCAR into the nucleus to turn on target gene expression, TC = TCPOBOP, a potent non-metabolized ligand of mCAR (3 mg/kg), CITCO = a hCAR specific ligand (30 mg/kg/day). Two mice were used per treatment group and each mouse RNA was used for one chip.
