Age-dependent gene expression profiles after hepatic ischemia/reperfusion in mice

ABSTRACT: Experimental Design: 1. The goal of the experiment: Age-Dependent Gene Expression Profiles After Hepatic Ischemia/Reperfusion: Implications for the AP-1 and Ubiquitin-Proteosome Pathways 2. Brief description of the experiment: Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a complication of liver surgery, transplantation and shock. Our previous studies have suggested there is an age-dependent response to I/R. In the present study, we examined global gene expression after liver I/R in young (4-5 weeks) and adult (12-14 months) mice using Affymetrix microarray. Gene expression was filtered based on a change in expression of 1.5-fold relative to respective controls and then analyzed by ANOVA. Seventy-two genes in young mice and 56 genes in adult mice had significantly increased expression. Of these, only 18 were up-regulated in both age groups. In young mice, 289 genes were down-regulated whereas in adult mice, 874 genes were decreased. Of these genes, 175 genes were decreased in both groups. Pathway and network analyses of up- and down-regulated gene lists revealed a number of notable differences between young and adult mice. Of these, we found that genes related to the activating protein-1 (AP-1) pathway were upregulated preferentially in young mice. This corresponded with an increase in AP-1 activation in young versus adult mice. Finally, we found that genes related to the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway were selectively down-regulated in adult mice. This was accompanied by reduced degradation of the inhibitory protein, I?B?, in adult mice. The data demonstrate specific, pathway- and network-related differences in gene expression profiles between young and adult mice in the response to I/R. More specifically, we have identified two pathways that may contribute to the superior response to I/R in young mice which represent potential therapeutic targets. Keywords: treated vs non treated

Project description:Disruption of peripheral circadian rhyme pathways dominantly leads to metabolic disorders. Studies on circadian rhythm proteins in the heart indicated a role for Clock or Per2 in cardiac metabolism. In fact, Per2-/- mice have larger infarct sizes with a deficient lactate production during myocardial ischemia. To test the hypothesis that cardiac Per2 represents an important regulator of cardiac metabolism during myocardial ischemia, we performed lactate measurements during reperfusion in Per1-/-, Per2-/- or wildtype mice followed by gene array studies using various ischemia-reperfusion protocols comparing wildtype and Per2-/- mice. Lactate measurements in whole blood confirmed a dominant role of Per2 for lactate production during myocardial ischemia. Surprisingly, high-throughput gene array analysis of eight different conditions on one 24-microarray plate revealed dominantly lipid metabolism as differentially regulated pathway in wildtype mice when compared to Per2-/-. In all treatment groups, the enzyme enoyl-CoA hydratase, which is essential in fatty acid beta-oxidation, was regulated in wildtype animals only. Studies using nuclear magnet resonance imaging (NMRI) confirmed altered fatty acid populations with higher mono-unsaturated fatty acid levels in hearts from Per2-/- mice. Unexpectedly, studies on gene regulation during reperfusion revealed solely pro inflammatory genes as differentially regulated 'Per2-genes'. Subsequent studies on inflammatory markers showed increasing IL6 or TNFa levels during reperfusion in Per2-/- mice. In summary, these studies reveal a novel role of cardiac Per2 for fatty acid metabolism or inflammation during myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. We pursued studies on Per2 dependent gene expression during myocardial ischemia or reperfusion to understand its impact on cardiac metabolism. We designed different ischemia and reperfusion protocols and performed a high-throughput expression profiling of 24 samples at a time using an industry-standard whole mouse gene array (Affymetrix, Mouse Gene 2.1 ST 24-Array). To understand differential gene regulation during different conditions we performed 1) 30 minutes of ischemia without reperfusion, 2) ischemic preconditioning (IP, 4 x 5 minutes ischemia and reperfusion), as known cardioprotective mechanism, and 3) 30 minutes of ischemia followed by 60 minutes of reperfusion. Based on three arrays per condition the total number of arrays was 24, which we analyzed at the same time on a multi plate array to avoid inter-array variations. Quality analysis using Partek Genomics Suite 6.6 revealed high confidence in the quality of the microarray data and all samples met 'Quality Assurance/Quality Control' (QA/QC) criteria.
