Transcription profiling of mouse bladder urothelium

ABSTRACT: Host responses to intracellular UPEC communities; We used laser capture microdissection and microarrays to identify urothelial transcripts differentially expressed in response to proximity to intracellular UPEC. Experiment Overall Design: Transcription within four distinct populations of urothelial cells was profiled in biological duplicate: (i) uninfected, (ii) mock-infected (sterile 1x PBS), (iii) IBC-distal (cells residing >10 cell diameters from IBCs in the section plane), and (iv) IBC-proximal (cells residing <10 cell diameters from IBCs in the section plane).

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), the principal cause of urinary tract infection in women, colonizes the gut as well as the genitourinary tract. Studies of mice inoculated with UTI89, a sequenced isolate, have revealed a complex life cycle that includes formation of intracellular bacterial communities (IBCs) in bladder urothelial cells. To understand how UPEC adapts to life in IBCs, we have used GeneChips and/or quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR to study UTI89 recovered from the distal ...[more]

Project description:Key histological and growth progression characteristics of human prostate cancer are phenocopied in mouse models that have been subjected to androgen level depletion and engineered for hemizygosity of candidate prostate cancer tumor suppressor genes Nkx3.1 and Pten. To characterize their relative transcriptomes and identify a genomic basis for their relevance to human prostate cancers, we compared mouse prostate tumors expression profiles to those from a panel of human prostate cancer isolates and to normal and benign prostates. Human prostate cancers and mouse prostate tumor models both exhibit the activation of genes associated with growth, cell cycle control, and inhibition of differentiation (CDKN2A, CDKN2B, CDKN2C, CEBPB, CEBPG, CSF1, CTSS, DMBT1, EGFR, PLCG2, PXN, SPP1, TNFSF9), and conversely, diminished expression of genes associated with normal prostate differentiation and function. All tumors also exhibit dysregulated expression of genes associated with inflammation, the disruption of prostate-associated ER stress pathways, as well as with oxidative stress, energy metabolism, cell adhesion, and stress response. Immunoinflammatory and altered cell adhesion process-associated genes exhibited prominent expression in early stage tumors. In contrast, metastatic human prostate cancer samples eliminated the expression of most immunoinflammatory-associated transcripts. Cross-species comparisons of molecular programs that are shared or distinguishing of Nkx3.1; Pten mutant mouse models and human adenocarcinomas clearly delineate core tumorigenesis programs associated with cell cycle activation and loss of differentiation. Compared to locally spreading mouse and human tumors, metastatic prostate cancer exhibits greatly reduced expression of immunoinflammatory and adhesion genes, implying that immuno-inflammatory activation may enable first stages of tumorogenesis, but suppress metastasis. These results provide a novel framework to identify stage-specific biomarkers and candidate targets for combinatorial therapeutics. The complex role of inflammation suggests a need for additional caution in countering metastasis. Keywords: tumor stage 26 Affymetrix MOE430A microarrays
