Characterization of changes in global genes expression in the distal colon of loperamide-induced constipation SD rats in response to the laxative effects of Liriope platyphylla

ABSTRACT: In order to characterize the changes in global gene expression in the distal colon of constipated SD rats in response to the laxative effects induced by aqueous extract of Liriope platyphylla (AEtLP) including isoflavone, saponin, oligosaccharide, succinic acid and hydroxyproline, total RNA extracted from the distal colon of AEtLP-treated constipation rats was hybridized to oligonucleotide microarrays.Overall, 581 genes were up-regulated and 216 genes were down-regulated by constipation induced by loperamide, while 67 genes were up-regulated and 421 genes were down-regulated by AEtLP treatment in constipated rats compared to controls. Among the transcripts up-regulated by constipation, 89 were significantly down-regulated and 20 were recovered to normal levels by AEtLP treatment. The major genes in the down-regulated categories included Slc9a5, klk10, Fgf15 and Alpi, while the major genes in the recovered categories were Cyp2b2, Ace, G6pc and Setbp1. However, nine of these genes that were down-regulated by constipation were significantly up-regulated and four were recovered to normal levels by AEtLP treatment. The major genes in the up-regulated categories included Serpina3n, Lcn2 and Slc5a81, while the major genes in the recovered categories were Tmem45a, Rerg and Rgc32. Constipation was induced in SD rats by subcutaneous injection of loperamide for 3 days. At 15 hr after the final treatment of loperamide, each animal were received a consistent volume of water or 15 uL/g body weight of AEtLP (1,000 mg/kg weight) via oral administration for once at 9 AM.

Project description:The study aimed to investigate the mechanisms of Jianxin (JX) granules, a Traditional Chinese Medicine formulation, in the treatment of heart failure (HF) using metabolomic profiling. The HF model was established by ligation of left coronary artery. The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into three groups: the model group, the JX granules group, and Sacubitril/Valsartan (S/V) group. Four weeks after treatment, LV tissue samples were collected. Proteomics was used to identify the differentially expressed proteins and potential pathways. The differential expressed proteins (DEPs) were obtained with Tandem Mass Tags approach. As compared to the control group, 150 DEPs were identified in model rats, comprising 112 up-regulated and 38 down-regulated proteins. Notably, in the JX granules group, 25 DEPs were identified compared to the model rats, encompassing 18 up-regulated and 7 down-regulated proteins. In comparison with the control group, 228 DEPs in the JX granules group were obtained, which comprised of 128 up-regulated and 100 down-regulated proteins. As compared with the control group, BP in the model group was mainly enriched in humoral immune response, positive regulation of apoptotic cell clearance, and the response to metal ions; Meanwhile, CC was mainly related to contractile and stress fibers, actin filaments, and extracellular space; MF was mainly enriched in the serine-type peptidase activity, actin binding, and peptidase activity. Furthermore, DEPs indicated by KEGG analysis were primarily linked to pathways such as the complement and coagulation cascades, regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, and adrenergic signaling. In contrast to the model group, BP in JX granules group was primarily associated with processes involving nucleosome organization, chromatin assembly or disassembly, DNA conformation change and small molecule catabolic processes; CC was primarily related to the protein-DNA complex, mitochondrion, intracellular, nucleosome, cytoplasm; MF displayed significant enrichment in protein dimerization and homodimerization activity, catalase activity, chromatin and nucleosomal DNA binding. Considering KEGG enrichment information, DEPs in the JX granules group were mainly enriched in metabolic pathways and ribosome pathway. The key differential genes, such as triosephosphate isomerase 1 (TPI1), lactate dehydrogenase B (LDHB), pyruvate kinase M (PKM), protein kinase B (Akt), and lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) were identified. The vital pathways including carbon metabolism, the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, pyruvate metabolism, and HIF-1α signaling pathway were obtained.

Project description:The Bashbay sheep (Ovis aries), an indigenous breed of Xinjiang, China, has many excellent characteristics. However, hybrids of Argali sheep and Bashbay sheep are susceptible to Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae infection, the causative agent of mycoplasma ovipneumonia, a chronic respiratory disease that is harmful to the sheep industry. To date, knowledge regarding the mechanisms responsible for M. ovipneumoniae pathogenesis is in scant. Herein, we report the results of transcriptome profiling of lung tissues from Argali hybrid sheep experimentally infected with an M. ovipneumoniae strain at 4 and 14 days post-infection, in comparison to mock-infected animals (0 d). Transcriptome profiling was performed by deep RNA sequencing, using the Illumina platform. The analysis of differentially expressed genes was performed to determine concomitant gene-specific temporal patterns of mRNA expression in the lungs after M. ovipneumoniae infection. We found 156 differentially expressed genes (44 up-regulated, 112 down-regulated) when comparing transcriptomic data at 4 and 0 days post-infection, and 367 (35 up-regulated, 332 down-regulated) when comparing 14 versus 0 days post-infection. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes at 4 and 14 versus 0 days post-infection were enriched in 109 and 150 pathways, respectively, and the Primary immunodeficiency pathway was considered most closely related to MO infection (p < 0.01). Hyper-IgM syndrome was identified based on the B-cell immunodeficiency signaling pathway from differentially expressed genes related M. ovipneumoniae infection. Gene Ontology analysis showed that differentially expressed genes in different groups were enriched for 497 and 928 terms, where those most closely related to M. ovipneumoniae infection are ciliated motor damage (p < 0.01). These results could aid in understanding why the Argali hybrid sheep are susceptible to MO as well as how M. ovipneumoniae infection progresses in the lungs and may provide useful information regarding key regulatory pathways.
