Differential gene expression in mice liver following bulaquine administration

ABSTRACT: Global gene expression in livers of bulaquine treated mice was compared with control mice at different time points. Keywords: Time course Mice (Mus musculus) belonging to control and bulaquine-administered groups (n=4) were sacrificed. The livers were snap frozen in liquid nitrogen, and subsequently stored at -80ÂºC till further use. Liver samples were homogenized and total RNA was extracted with TRI reagent. 25 ug of total RNA was converted into labeled cDNA using CyScribe first strand cDNA labeling kit. The Cy5 and Cy3 labeled cDNAs were resuspended in Cyscribe Hyb buffer containing 10ug/ml sheared Salmon sperm DNA and 10ug/ml Yeast tRNA. The labeled samples were hybridized to the arrays and incubated for 16-18hrs at 42ÂºC. Fluorescent array images were collected for both Cy3 and Cy5 with molecular dynamics III scanner supported with ImageQuant v5.0. Image intensity data were extracted and analyzed with ArrayVision v8.0 analysis software. Background corrected data was LOWESS normalized and log ratios were calculated using Avadis v4. Replicate experiments were carried out in dye swap manner for each time point.

Therapeutic agents derived from 8-aminoquinoline possess potent activity against hepatic stages of plasmodia. Bulaquine (CDRI 80/53), an enamine analogue of primaquine and a relatively new derivative of 8-aminioquinoline, synthesized at the Central Drug Research Institute, Lucknow, India, has shown promising activity against hypnozoites of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium ovale. Moreover, it has been found to be three to four times safer than primaquine in pre-clinical studies. In this study, glo ...[more]

Project description:Environmental reproductive health focuses on the effect of exposure to contaminants considered as endocrine disruptors. Developmental testis is considered as target of these compounds affecting testicular functions in adults and suspected implications in tumor etiology. Comparative analysis of gene expression in mouse testis exposed to five disruptors, three different dosages and three accumulative developmental stages shown defined signature profiles of gene deregulation for MEHP (monoethyl phthalate) and zearalenone (a phytoestrogen) and different to 17β-estradiol exposure. The effects are even detected in postpuberal male offspring from premating exposed mothers. Oxidative stress response, protein ubiquitination and oxidative phosphorylation are the most representative pathways affected. Animal Exposure CD-1 mice were in vivo exposed to several doses of EDs following a defined protocol: mothers were exposed two weeks before mating (exposure A); the same exposure and dose were maintained during pregnancy (exposure B) and four weeks after birth (exposure C). In all exposures, male offspring were sacrificed to obtain the testes. The compounds were administrated in drinking water to a final concentration of: E2(mg/l) BPA(mg/l) Zea(mg/l) MEHP(mg/l) Lindane(mg/l) Dose (1) 0.02 0.5 4 27.85 50 Dose (2) 0.04 50 12 139.17 100 Dose (3) 0.16 200 20 278.34 200 Ethanol was used as vehicle for E2, BPA and Zea and DMSO was for MEHP and Lindane. Control testes were obtained from animals exposed to solvents of EDs: Ethanol and DMSO. Animal care and sacrifice were made following regulations from the CSIC Bioethics Committee. RNA preparation Total RNA from testes of exposed animals and controls was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen), according to the manufacturer’s standard protocol. RNA samples were spectrophotometrically quantified using NanoDrop (NanoDrop Technologies). To minimize the effect of inter-individual expression variability we made pools of RNA from at least 3 individual RNA samples from each experimental condition (same quantity of total RNA per sample). Pools of RNA were checked for quality performing Experion analysis (Bio-Rad Laboratories). Total RNA from testes of unexposed four weeks old animals was also extracted with the purpose of making pools to assess the variability at the expression level of the mouse strain used (Ctr). Microarray Processing Starting with total RNA from pools described above, full length cDNAs were synthesized from oligo(dT) primers bearing a T7 promoter. These cDNAs were used as template for in vitro transcription by T7-RNA-Polymerase to amplify the mRNAs; following the Amino Allyl MessageAmp™ aRNA Kit (Ambion, Inc.) protocol. The amplified mRNAs (aRNA) were labeled either with Cy3 or Cy5 dyes, using Amersham CyDye Post-Labeling Reactive Dyes (Amersham Biosciences). The incorporated dye was spectrophotometrically quantified using NanoDrop (NanoDrop Technologies). The same dye signal quantities of labeled experimental and control aRNAs were mixed and hybridized to Mouse Oligoset v3 (OPERON) arrays from Genomics facility-University of Cincinnati (USA). The slides contained 31,769 spotted probes (70 mer oligonucleotides) corresponding to 24,878 expressed or predicted mouse genes. Hybridization and washes of microarrays were performed according to Genomics facility-University of Cincinnati instructions. Dye-Swap replicates were performed: one slide hybridized with experimental and control targets labeled with Cy3 and Cy5, respectively; and the second slide with the same type of targets but inversely labeled. Target refers to labeled aRNA while probe refers to the oligonucleotides spotted on the microarray platform. Imaging and data generation were carried out using a GenePix 4000B (Axon Instruments) and associated software from Axon Instruments, Inc. The microarray slides were scanned with dual lasers with wavelength frequencies to excite Cy3 and Cy5. Images were captured in TIFF files. Information extraction for a given spot was based on the median value for the signal pixels minus the median value for the background pixels to produce a gene set data file for all the DNA spots. The Cy3 and Cy5 fluorescence signal intensities were normalized.
