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:Non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) has the potential to progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) or to promote type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, NASH and T2DM do not always develop coordinately. We established rat models of NAFL, NASH, and NAFL + T2DM to recapitulate different phenotypes associated with NAFLD and its progression. Microarrays were used to identify hepatic gene expression changes in each of these models. The goal is to identify a predictor of different NAFLD progressions. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is recognized as a low-grade systemic inflammatory state with both hepatic and extra-hepatic manifestations. We aimed to identify common key regulators and adaptive pathways in different NAFLD phenotypes. NAFL, NASH and NAFL+T2DM rat models were used to represent simple fatty liver, fatty liver with severe hepatic manifestations, and fatty liver with severe metabolic manifestations, respectively. We applied microarray analysis to characterize the key regulators and adaptive pathways in different NAFLD phenotypes. There are 12 samples in our study which belonged to 4 groups, and each group contains 3 different samples.

Project description:Paclitaxel is the most commonly used chemotherapeutic agent in breast cancer treatment. Notably, a comprehensive understanding of paclitaxelâs effects requires insight into the dose-specific activities of paclitaxel and their influence on the cancer cells and host microenvironment. The aim of our study is to reveal the gene transcriptional changes in response to low-Paclitaxel (PTX) treatment in breast cancer cells. For genome-wide gene expression analysis, MDA-MB-231 cells (high-invasive breast cancer cell line) were treated with 5 ng/ml PTX for 24 and 48 hours respectively and then the cell lysates were prepared by TRIzol reagent. Then the total RNA in each group was extracted and the genome-wide gene expressing profile was detected through the Human One Array (HOA) Microarray system (Phalanx Biotech Group, Taiwan).

Project description:Background: Primary osteoporosis has increasingly become one of the risk factors affecting human health, and the clinical effect and action mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of primary osteoporosis have been widely studied. Previous studies have confirmed that in traditional Chinese medicine , Drynaria rhizome has a role in improving bone density. In this study, TMT-based proteomic analysis was conducted to derive potential targets for Drynaria rhizome treatment in postmenopausal osteoporosis. Methods: The model group (OVX) and experimental group (OVXDF) for menopausal osteoporosis were established using the universally acknowledged ovariectomy method, and the latter group received intragastric administration of 8.1 g /kg-1 of Drynaria rhizome for 12 weeks. After 12 weeks, femurs of rats selected for this study were examined with a bone mineral density (BMD) test, Micro-CT, ELISABiochemical testing, hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, and immunohistochemistry. A certain portion of the bone tissue was studied with a TMT-based proteomic analysis and functional and pathway enrichment analysis. Finally, key target genes were selected for Western blotting for validation. Results: The comparison of the OVXDF and OVX groups indicated that Drynaria rhizome could improve bone density. In the TMT-based proteomic analysis, the comparison of these two groups revealed a total of 126 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), of which 62 were upregulated and 64 were downregulated. Further, by comparing the differential genes between the OVXDF and OVX groups and between the OVX and SHAM groups, we concluded that the 27 differential genes were significantly changed in the rats selected for the osteoporosis model after Drynaria rhizome intragastric administration. The gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis of DEPs showed that molecular function was mainly involved in biological processes, such as glucose metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, immune responses, and aging. A Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis of DEPs revealed that multiple differential genes were enriched in the estrogen and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathways. Relationships with nitrogen metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism, secretion systems, and tumor diseases were also observed. Western blotting was consistent with the analysis. Conclusions: We used TMT-based proteomics to analyze the positive effects of TCM Drynaria rhizome, which can regulate related proteins through the unique roles of multiple mechanisms, targets, and pathways. This treatment approach can regulate oxidative stress, improve lipid metabolism, reduce the inflammatory response mechanism, and improve bone density. These benefits highlight the unique advantages of TCM in the treatment of primary osteoporosis.

Project description:A deficit in synaptic plasticity is one of the many changes that occurs with age. Specifically the archetypal model of plasticity, long-term potentiation (LTP), is reduced in hippocampus of middle-aged and aged animals. Several factors are likely to contribute to this deficit including morphological changes like a net loss of neurons and loss of synapses with the consequent changes in receptor signalling. However it is also clear that ageing is associated with development of oxidative stress, and also inflammatory stress which is typified by increased activation of microglia. Recent evidence has indicated that probiotics exert anti-inflammatory in the gut. Specifically VSL#3, a proprietary probiotic comprising 8 Gram-positive bacterial strains, decreased markers of inflammation in the colon in an animal model of colitis. We considered that its anti-inflammatory effects might extend to brain and therefore that treatment of aged rats with VSL#3 might attenuate the age-related deficit in LTP. The evidence indicates that LTP was impaired in control-treated aged rats but sustained in aged rats which received VSL#3. This was accompanied by a modest decrease in markers of microglial activation and an increase in BDNF and synapsin . The microarray analysis demonstrated that VSL#3 treatment induces changes also in the expression of some brain genes. four sample groups each representing a certain treatment condition of young or adult male Han Wistar rats

Project description:Purpose: Acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe clinical disorder characterized by diffused capillary-alveolar barrier damage and noncardiogenic lung edema induced by excessive inflammation reactions. Nogo-B, a member of the reticulon 4 protein family, plays a critical role in modulating macrophages and neutrophils’ function in inflammation. Its role in ALI remains unclear. Methods: Pulmonary expression of Nogo-B was investigated in a LPS-induced ALI mice model. The effects and the underline mechanisms of Nogo-B expression on the severity of lung injury was assessed using histological examination, Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) protein and inflammatory cells and cytokines measurement, and microarray analysis. Results: Nogo-B was normally highly expressed in the lungs of naïve C57BL/6 mice. Intra-tracheal instillation of LPS significantly repressed the Nogo-B expression in lung tissues and BALF cells of ALI mice. In addition, over-expression of pulmonary Nogo-B using an adenovirus vector which expresses a Nogo-B-RFP-3-flag fusion protein (Ad-Nogo-B) significantly prolonged the survival time of mice challenged with lethal dose of LPS. Histological results and BALF protein measurement convinced that Ad-Nogo-B treated mice had less severity of lung injury and alveolar protein exudation, as compared with control adenovirus treated mice (Ad-RFP). They also had higher MCP-1 secretion and alveolar macrophages infiltration, but lower neutrophils infiltration. Finally, using microarray analysis, we identified a protective gene, PTX3, was highly elevated in Ad-Nogo-B treated mice. Conclusions: Nogo-B played a protective role in LPS-induced ALI, which might exert its role through modulation of inflammatory response and PTX3 secretion. A total of 12 samples from mice treated with or without LPS in the presence of Ad-Nogo-B or Ad-RFP transfection (n=3 for each group)
