ABSTRACT: Over-expression of Stat3C in lung alveolar type II epithelial cells of CCSP-rtTA/(teto)7Stat3C bitransgenic mice leads to severe pulmonary inflammation in the lung. As a consequence, spontaneous lung bronchoalveolar adenocarcinoma was observed in bitransgenic mice. Aberrantly expressed genes in the bitransgenic model were identified by Affymetrix GeneChip Microarray. Lungs were isolated from 4 individual mice in each group after 9 months of doxycycline-treatment. To eliminate sample differences generated by individual mice, the lung tissues were combined in each group and homogenized for RNA isolation. The total lung RNAs were purified using the QIAGEN total RNA purification kit as recommended by the manufacturer. The Affymetrix GeneChip assay was performed in duplicate. Briefly, the same amounts (10 ug) of total RNAs from the lungs of doxycycline not treated and treated mice was subject to reverse transcription using oligo dT with T7 promoter sequences attached, followed by second strand cDNA synthesis. Antisense cRNA was then amplified and biotinylated using T7 RNA polymerase, prior to hybridization to the Mouse 430A GeneChip (Affymetrix Inc) using the Affymetrix recommended protocol. Affymetrix MicroArray Suite version 5.0 was used to scan and quantitate the Genechips using default scan settings. Intensity data was collected from each chip, scaled to a target intensity of 1500 and the results were analyzed using GeneSpring 5.0 (Silicon Genetics, Inc.) and JMP4 (SAS Institute, Inc.). Hybridization data were sequentially subject to normalization, transformation, filtering and functional classification. Genes differentially expressed between doxycycline treated and not treated mice were identified by Student t-test at p value < 0.05 and fold change > 2. To evaluate data consistency and reproducibility, coefficiency of variation among replicates were calculated with the maximal cutoff line as 98%.
