Project description:In this study was determined the global expression pattern of long non-coding RNAs, mRNAs, and miRNAs in pediatric astrocytoma of different histological grades. The Affymetrix HTA 2.0 array showed expression changes on one hundred-sixty two and two hundred-fifteen long non-coding RNAs in tumors (versus the control) and in GBM (versus low-grade astrocytoma), respectively. A total of seven astrocytic tumors and two control tissues were collected during the period of 2012–2014: four low-grade Ast (three pilocytic Ast (PAst) and one diffuse Ast (DAst)) and four high-grade Ast (four glioblastoma multiforme (GBM)).RNA was extracted from tissue samples using TRIzol (Ambion life technologies, Thermo Scientific Inc.) following the methodology described by Hongbao et al. 2008 and with certain modifications described by Vujovic et al. 2013. For expression analysis, Human Transcriptome Array 2.0 (HTA) (Santa Clara, CA, USA) was employed. in this study was determined the global expression pattern of long non-coding RNAs, mRNAs, and miRNAs in pediatric astrocytoma of different histological grades.

Project description:Spinal cord injury (SCI) represents a major debilitating health issue with a direct socioeconomic burden on the public and private sectors worldwide. Although several studies have been conducted to identify the molecular progression of injury sequel due from the lesion site, still the exact underlying mechanisms and pathways of injury development have not been fully elucidated. In this work, based on OMICs, 3D MALDI imaging, cytokines arrays, confocal imaging we established for the first time that molecular and cellular processes occurring after spinal cord injury (SCI) are altered between the lesion proximity, i.e., rostral and caudal segments nearby the lesion (R1-C1) whereas segments distant from R1-C1, i.e., R2-C2 and R3-C3 levels co-expressed factors implicated in neurogenesis. Delay in T regulators recruitment between R1 and C1 favor discrepancies between the two segments. This is also reinforced by presence of neurites outgrowth inhibitors in C1, absent in R1. Moreover, the presence of immunoglobulins (IgGs) in neurons at the lesion site at 3 days, validated by mass spectrometry, may present additional factor that contributes to limited regeneration. Treatment in vivo with anti-CD20 one hour after SCI did not improve locomotor function and IgG expression. These results open the door of a novel view of the SCI treatment by considering the C1 as the therapeutic target.

Project description:Primary brain tumors are classified and treated based on their histological features, however the factors which specify these tumor types remain largely unknown. We demonstrate that the over-expression of HRAS (V12) and MYC alone or in combination directs the development of glioma, CNS PNET, and atypical teratoid/rhabdoid (AT/RT)-like tumors from postnatal murine p53-deficient neural stem/progenitor cells. Microarray analyses were performed to investigate the gene expression profile of the tumor cells generated by the different genetic perturbations. Murine brain tumors were generated by overexpressing different oncogenes in cultured neurosphere cells from the postnatal lateral ventricle wall region (LVW) of Trp53-deficient mice. Neurosphere cultures were established from isolated cells of the generated tumors, which still expressed the transgene/fluorescent marker gene cassette. Total RNA was isolated and used for gene expression analyses using the Affymetrix Gene 1.0 ST array platform.

Project description:Red meat consumption is associated with an increased colon cancer risk. Heme, present in red meat, injures the colon surface epithelium by luminal cytotoxicity and reactive oxygen species. This surface injury is compensated by hyperproliferation and hyperplasia of crypt cells, which was induced by a changed surface to crypt signalling as recently described. It is unknown whether the change in signaling is caused by cytotoxic stress and/or by oxidative stress, as these processes were never studied separately. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the possible differential effects of dietary heme on these luminal stressors and their impact on the colonic mucosa after 2, 4, 7 and 14 days of heme feeding. Mice received a purified humanized control diet or this diet supplemented with 0.2 µmol heme/g. Oxidative stress was measured as Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (TBARS) in fecal water. Cytotoxicity of fecal water was quantified with a bioassay. Epithelial cell proliferation was determined by Ki67 immunohistochemistry and mucosal responses were further studied in detail by whole genome transcriptomics. Dietary heme caused instantaneous and delayed changes in the luminal contents which were reflected in the mucosa. Instantaneous, there was an increase in reactive oxygen species leading to increased levels of lipid peroxidation products. Mucosal gene expression showed an instantaneous antioxidant response and PPAR target gene activation. After day 4 cytotoxicity of the colonic contents was increased and hyperproliferation was initiated, indicating that cytotoxicity was causal for the initiation of hyperproliferation. Several oncogenes were activated and tumor protein 53 was inhibited. In conclusion, dietary heme caused an instantaneous production of reactive oxygen species in mouse colon. A lag time was observed in the formation of cytotoxicity which coincided with the initiation hyperproliferation. Keywords: expression profiling by array Mice were fed a Westernized high fat control diet, or the same diet supplemented with 0.2 µmol heme/g diet. After different days of intervention, mice were killed and gene expression was profiled in colon.

Project description:By regulating digestion and absorption of nutrients and providing a barrier against the external environment the intestine provides a crucial contribution to the maintenance of health. To what extent aging-related changes in the intestinal system contribute to the impaired health of the aging body is still under debate. Young (4 months) and old (21 months) male C57BL/6J mice were fed a control low-fat (10E%) or a high-fat diet (45E%) for 2 weeks. During the intervention gross energy intake and energy excretion in the feces were measured. After sacrifice the small and large intestine were isolated whereby the small intestine was divided in three equal parts. Of each of the isolated segments Swiss rolls were prepared for histological analysis and the luminal content was isolated to examine alterations in the microflora with 16S rRNA Q-PCR. Furthermore, mucosal scrapings were isolated from each segment to determine differential gene expression by microarray analysis and global DNA methylation by pyrosequencing. Digestible energy intake was similar between the two age groups on both the control and the high-fat diet implying that macronutrient metabolism is not affected in 21-month-old mice. This observation was supported by the fact that the microarray analysis on RNA from intestinal scrapings showed no marked changes in expression of genes involved in metabolic processes. Decreased expression of Cubilin was observed in the intestine of 21-month-old mice, which might contribute to aging-induced vitamin B12 deficiency. Furthermore, microarray data analysis revealed enhanced expression of a high number of genes involved in immune response and inflammation in the colon, but not in the small intestine of the 21-month-old mice. Aging-induced global hypomethylation was observed in the colon and the distal part of the small intestine, but not in the first two sections of the small intestine. In 21-month old mice the most pronounced effects of aging was observed in the colon, limited changes were observed in the small intestine. Young (4 months) and old (21 months) C57BL/6J mice were fed a low-fat (10E%) diet or high-fat (45%E) diet for 2 weeks. After the diet intervention period, the animals were killed and scrapings were made of the proximal, middle and distal part of the small intestine. Total RNA was isolated, pooled and subjected to gene expression profiling.

Project description:A subpopulation of pericytes expressing the Glast-CreERT2 transgene (Type A pericytes) has recently been identified as the main source of stromal scar tissue that forms after SCI. Identification of molecules associated with pericyte-derived scarring may offer new therapeutic targets to facilitate axon regeneration following central nervous system (CNS) injury. We conducted genome-wide RNA sequencing of (i) uninjured spinal cord segments and (ii) lesion sites presenting full or attenuated pericyte-derived scarring 14 days after SCI.

Project description:Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces a sequence of endogenous autodestructive changes known as secondary injury, as well as reactive biochemical changes that are neuroprotective and/or promote recovery. All these responses to SCI are, in part re?ected in changes in gene expression. In order to assess changes in gene expression involved in the regeneration process,microarrays were performed as a function of time after SCI for the various treatments. Three groups rats(i.e.NT-3-chitosan tube group, tube alone group and lesion control group) used to interrogate Affymetrix (SantaClara,CA) GeneChips were sacrificed by intraperitoneally over dose injecting 6% chloral hydrate at 1, 3, 10, 20, 30, and 90 d after the operation. The spinal cords were surgically re-exposed and spinal tissue including dura and meninges was dissected into three blocks, i.e. 5 mm long segments in the lesioned area (M), rostral to the lesioned area (R), and caudal to the lesioned areas (C) were sampled under RNAase-free conditions. The samples were quick frozen and kept in liquid nitrogen.
