Project description:The ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus (VMH) is thought to a satiety center and a potential target for anti-obesity therapy. Electroconvulsive seizure (ECS) therapy is highly effective in psychiatric diseases including depression, but also implicated beneficial effects on other neurological diseases. Although it has been reported that the neurons in the VMH are strongly activated by ECS stimulation, the effect of ECS in this hypothalamic subnucleus remains unknown. To address this issue, we investigated molecular changes in the VMH in response to ECS by utilizing a method of laser-capture microdissection coupled with microarray analysis, and examined behavioral effects of ECS via VMH activation. ECS significantly induced gene expression not only immediate-early genes such as Fos, Fosb and Jun, but also Bdnf, Adcyap1, and Hrh1 in the VMH after a single or repeated stimulus. Mice received one or 7 times shock of ECS and their brains were collected at 2 h (VMH_1stECS2h, VMH_7thECS2h) or 6 h after shock (VMH_1stECS6h, VMH_7thECS6h). The brains of sham-treated animals were collected at 2 h after treatment(VMH_sham). The VMH was microdissected from dehydrated brain sections, and its total RNA was extracted. RNA samples from two or three animals were pooled to minimize the impact of biological variance. After nucleotide amplification by the ovation amplification, the gene expression profiles were obtained by the Affymetrix microarray analysis. The microarray analysis was performed twice using different sets of animals.

Project description:Rationale Electroconvulsive seizure (ECS) therapy is a nonchemical treatment for depression. Since ECS up-regulates expression of c-Fos in the paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus (PVN), the function of which is frequently influenced in depression, we hypothesized that ECS modulates functions of the PVN and contributes to its antidepressant effects. Objectives To identify gene expression changes in the mouse PVN by ECS treatment Material and methods First, we established a method to amplify nucleotides from small quantities of RNA. Mice received one shock of ECS and their brains were collected at 2 or 6 h after shock. The PVN was microdissected from dehydrated brain sections, its total RNA was extracted and microarray analysis was applied. Results At 2 h after ECS, 2.6% (589 genes) of the probes showed more than 2-fold decrease, and 0.9% (205 genes) showed more than 2-fold increase. To confirm the expression changes, genes showing differential expression with a wide range in the microarray were analyzed by qPCR. Among the genes with more than 2-fold change by ECS, down-regulated 94 genes and up-regulated 24 genes have been reported the association with anxiety, bipolar disorder or mood disorder by the Ingenuity knowledge database. The groups of down-regulated genes, which are suggested to modulate the function of the PVN or associate to psychiatric disorders, include neuropeptides (Cck), kinases (Prkcb, Prkcc, Camk2a), transcription factors (Bcl6, Tbr1), transporters (Aqp4) and others (Fmr1). Conclusion The present results indicate that ECS treatment can modulate the functions of PVN via a series of gene expression changes, and may contribute to its antidepressant effects at least in part. Mice received one shock of ECS and their brains were collected at 2 h (PVN_ECS2h_1, PVN_ECS2h_2) or 6 h after shock (PVN_ECS6h_1, PVN_ECS6h_2). The brains of sham-treated animals were collected at 2 h after treatment (PVN_sham_1, PVN_sham_2). The PVN was microdissected from dehydrated brain sections, and its total RNA was extracted. RNA samples from two or three animals were pooled to minimize the impact of biological variance. After nucleotide amplification by the ovation amplification, the gene expression profiles were obtained by the Affymetrix microarray analysis. The microarray analysis was performed twice using different sets of animals.

Project description:Neuronal activity-dependent gene expression plays important roles in neural plasticity. We use electroconvulsive stimulation (ECS) as an in vivo model for neuronal activation to identify genes that are regulated by neuronal activity. Dentate gyri (DG) were microdissected 4 hours after sham or ECS treatment for gene expression profiling. 4 total samples were analysed (2 for each condition). Averaged expression values between sham and ECS samples were pair-wise compared.

Project description:Snail1 is a transcriptional factor required for activation of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF). In a murine model of mammary gland cancer, mice with Snai1 gene deletion presented a greater survival and differences in macrophage differentiation with fewer M2 macrophages. Snail1 was not expressed in macrophages and in vitro polarization of monocytes towards M1 or M2 phenotypes was not altered by Snai1 gene depletion. In contrast, when macrophages were incubated with Snail1-expressing CAF or with conditioned medium derived from these cells, they exhibited a lower cytotoxic capability than when incubated with Snail1 KO (inactive) CAFs. We compared gene expression of macrophages polarized by CAF WT versus CAF KO-conditioned medium with that promoter by IFN gamma and IL4, classical M1 and M2 inducers, respectively. We observed that, compared to inactive fibroblasts, active CAF specifically upregulated the expression of some M2 genes as Arg1 and also of genes normally reduced in M1 polarization, such as Arg2, although the gene pattern differed from that stimulated by IL4. A complete list of these genes is presented here.

Project description:For major depression, the non-drug therapy Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) treatment is highly effective and fast-acting. Despite a large and long-standing clinical use, the neurobiological mechanisms underlining ECT curative action are still poorly understood. Thanks to a genetic animal model that constitutively exhibit behavioural and biological features relevant to some aspects of major depressive disorder, here we analyse the behavioural and biological consequences of electroconvulsive stimulations (ECS), the animal model of ECT. We found that a classical ECS treatment, with 10 stimulation over 2 weeks period, has a beneficial effect on constitutive behavioural defects. We therefore compared brain and hippocampal majority proteomes from MAP6 KO mice submitted or not to electroconvulsive stimulations.

Project description:The heterogeneity of endothelial cells (ECs), lining blood vessels, across tissues remains incompletely inventoried. We constructed an atlas of >32,000 single-EC transcriptomic data from 11 tissues of the model organism Mus musculus. We propose a new classification of EC phenotypes based on transcriptome signatures and inferred putative biological features. We identified top-ranking markers for ECs from each tissue. ECs from different vascular beds (arteries, capillaries, veins, lymphatics) resembled each other across tissues, but only arterial, venous and lymphatic (not capillary) ECs shared markers, illustrating a greater heterogeneity of capillary ECs. We identified high-endothelial-venule and lacteal-like ECs in the intestines, and angiogenic ECs in healthy tissues. Metabolic transcriptomes of ECs differed amongst spleen, lung, liver, brain and testis, while being similar for kidney, heart, muscle and intestines. Within tissues, metabolic gene expression was heterogeneous amongst ECs from different vascular beds, altogether highlighting large EC heterogeneity.

Project description:The endothelium is the frontline target of multiple metabolic stressors and pharmacological agents. As a consequence, endothelial cells (ECs) display highly dynamic and diverse proteome profiles. We describe here the culture of human aortic ECs from healthy and type 2 diabetic donors, the treatment with a small molecular conformation of trans-resveratrol and hesperetin (tRES+HESP), followed by proteomic analysis of whole-cell lysate. A number of 3666 proteins were presented in all the samples and thus further analyzed. We found that 179 proteins had a significant difference between diabetic ECs vs. healthy ECs, while 81 proteins had a significant change upon the treatment of tRES+HESP in diabetic ECs. Among them, 16 proteins showed a difference between diabetic ECs and healthy ECs and the difference was reversed by the tRES+HESP treatment, with the top 5 drastically altered proteins being ACVRL1, ADAM9, ITGAV, PCCB, and TGFBR2. Follow-up functional assays identified ACVRL1 and TGFBR2 as the most pronounced mediator for tRES+HESP-induced protection of angiogenesis in vitro. Our study has revealed the global changes in proteins and biological pathways in ECs from diabetic donors, which are potentially reversible by the tRES+HESP formula. Furthermore, we have identified the TGFβ signaling axis as a responding mechanism in ECs treated with this formula, shedding light for future studies for deeper molecular characterization

Project description:In this study we mutated the ecsAB operon in two different Staphylococcus aureus strains, Newman and LS-1, and performed a wide characterization of phenotypic effects of the mutations. A growth defect, increased autolysis and lysostaphin sensitivity, decreased levels of cell wall proteins and altered cell surface texture indicate that Ecs deficiency causes significant changes in the cell wall. The precursor form of staphylokinase was released into the wall in an Ecs-dependent manner. Pathogenicity of the ecs mutants was studied with a mouse arthritis model. Mice inoculated with ecs mutants developed markedly milder infections than when inoculated with the wild-type strains, as was illustrated by a lower mortality, less weight loss, decreased persistence of staphylococci in the kidneys and a milder arthritis. DNA microarray analysis revealed that inactivation of Ecs in S. aureus Newman caused either up-regulation or down-regulation of genes encoding various membrane transport proteins, particularly ABC transporters and phosphate-specific transport (PST) systems. Differentially expressed were also several genes encoding proteins involved in virulence, including the virulence factor regulator protein Rot, protein A, adhesins and capsular polysaccharide biosynthesis proteins. Furthermore, the susceptibility of ecs mutant to ribosomal antibiotics as well as the chelerythrine and sanguinarine plant alkaloids was increased. WT and ecsA mutant strains were hybridized at 3 and 6 hours of growth in rich medium (4-replicates)
