Project description:Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are stimulated by exercise and contribute not only to host defense, but also to growth, repair, and disease pathogenesis. Whether PBMC gene expression is altered by exercise in children is not known. Ten early pubertal boys (8-12 y) and 10 late pubertal boys (15-18 y) performed ten 2-min bouts of strenuous, constant work rate exercise with 1-min rest intervals. PBMCs were isolated before and after exercise and microarray (Affymetrix U133 + 2 chips) analyzed. Statistical criterion to identify gene expression changes was less than 5% false discovery rate (FDR) with 95% confidence interval. One thousand two hundred forty-six genes were altered in older boys (517 up, 729 down), but only 109 were altered in the younger group (79 up, 30 down). In older boys, 13 gene pathways (using Expression Analysis Systematic Explorer, p < 0.05) were found (e.g. natural killer cell cytotoxicity, apoptosis). Epiregulin gene expression (EREG, a growth factor involved in wound healing) increased in older boys. In older boys exercise altered genes such as TBX21, GZMA, PGTDR, and CCL5 also play roles in pediatric inflammatory diseases like asthma. Sixty-six genes were changed significantly in both groups. The pattern of PBMC gene expression suggests the initiation of an immunologic "danger" signal associated with a sudden change in energy expenditure.

Project description:The COPENHAGEN Puberty Study is a combined cross sectional and longitudinal population based cohort study of healthy Danish children and adolescents. The clinical evaluations were performed by trained physicians and included pubertal staging of breast development according to Tanner´s classification evaluated by palpation. As a measure of pubertal onset a testicular volume of 4 ml or a breast tanner stage of B2 or more was used for boys and girls, respectively. The mean age between two examinations where this threshold was reached was used as their age of pubertal onset. Pre- and post-pubertal samples from 20 girls and 31 boys, in total 102 samples, were normalised using a Subset quantile Within-Array Normalization (SWAN) procedure and probes containing SNPs in the CpG or extension sites were removed.

Project description:Recent studies show that brief exercise alters circulating neutrophil and peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) gene expression, ranging from cell growth to both pro-and anti-inflammatory processes. These initial observations were made solely in males, but whether PBMC gene expression is altered by exercise in females is not known. Ten early-pubertal girls (8-11 yr old) and 10 late-pubertal girls (15-17 yr old) performed ten 2-min bouts of cycle ergometry ( approximately 90% peak heart rate) interspersed with 1-min rest intervals. Blood was obtained at rest and after exercise, and microarrays were performed in each individual subject. RNA was hybridized to Affymetrix U133+2.0 Arrays. Exercise induced significant changes in PBMC gene expression in early (1,320 genes)- and late (877 genes)-pubertal girls. The expression of 622 genes changed similarly in both groups. Exercise influenced a variety of established gene pathways (EASE < 0.04) in both older (6 pathways) and younger girls (11 pathways). Five pathways were the same in both groups and were functionally related to inflammation, stress, and apoptosis, such as natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity, antigen processing and presentation, B cell receptor signaling, and apoptosis. In summary, brief exercise alters PBMC gene expression in early- and late-pubertal girls. The pattern of change involves diverse genetic pathways, consistent with a global danger-type response, perhaps readying PBMCs for a range of physiological functions from inflammation to tissue repair that would be useful following a bout of physical activity.

Project description:There is a lack of systematic investigations of large-scale transcriptome patterns associated with normal breast development. Herein, we profiled whole-transcriptome (by microarrays) of normal mammary glands in female Sprague-Dawley rats, an animal model widely used in breast cancer research, across six distinctive developmental stages – pre-pubertal, peri-pubertal, pubertal, lactation, and adult parous and age-matched nulliparous.

Project description:At birth, all female mice, including those that either lack estrogen receptor α (ERα-knockout) or that express mutated forms of ERα (AF2ERKI), have a hypoplastic uterus. However, uterine growth and development that normally accompanies pubertal maturation does not occur in ERα-knockout or AF2ERKI mice, indicating ERα mediated estrogen signaling is essential for this process. Mice that lack Cyp19 (aromatase, ArKO mice), an enzyme critical for estrogen (E2) synthesis, are unable to make E2, and lack pubertal uterine development. A single injection of E2 into ovariectomized adult (10 weeks old) females normally results in uterine epithelial cell proliferation, however, we observe that, although ERα is present in the ArKO uterine cells, no proliferative response is seen. We assessed the impact of exposing ArKO mice to E2 during pubertal and post-pubertal windows and observed that E2 exposed ArKO mice acquired growth responsiveness. Analysis of differential gene expression between unexposed ArKO samples and samples from animals exhibiting the ability to mount an E2-induced uterine growth response (WT or E2 exposed ArKO) revealed activation of EZH2 and HAND2 signaling and inhibition of GLI1 responses. EZH2 and HAND2 are known inhibit uterine growth, and GLI1 is involved in IHH signaling, which is a positive mediator of uterine response. Finally, we show that exposure of ArKO females to dietary phytoestrogens results in their acquisition of uterine growth competence. Altogether our findings suggest that pubertal levels of endogenous and exogenous estrogens impact biological function of uterine cells later in life via ERα-dependent mechanisms. We compared uterine RNA from ovariectomized adult aromatase knockout mice (ARKO) mice that were untreated to WT mice and to ARKO that were administered estradiol benzoate (EB) to induce uterine epithelial cell growth competence

Project description:Background: The current knowledge about the molecular mechanisms underlying the health benefits of exercise is still limited, especially in the pediatric population. We set out to investigate the effect of a 20-week exercise intervention on whole blood transcriptome profile (RNA-seq) in children with overweight/obesity. Methods: Twenty-four pre-pubertal children (10.21 ± 1.33 years, 46% girls) with overweight/obesity, were randomized to either a 20-week exercise program (intervention group; n=10), or to a non-exercise control group (usual lifestyle, n=14). Whole blood transcriptome profile was analysed using RNA-seq STRT2 technique. Gene expression analysis was carried out with the Limma R/Bioconductor software package, and the gene ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analyses were performed using R. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) was performed for gene network detection. The transcriptome data were in silico validated using PHENOPEDIA and meta-analysis database extrameta.org. Results: 161 genes were differentially expressed between the exercise and the control groups among boys, and 121 genes among girls (p-value < 0.05), while after multiple correction, no significant difference between groups persisted in gene expression profiles (FDR > 0.05). Based on non-corrected analyses, the enriched GO processes and molecular pathways highlighted the effect of exercise on different immune response related pathways in boys (antigen processing and presentation, infections, and T cell receptor complex) and girls (Fc epsilon RI signaling pathway) (FDR < 0.05). In silico data mining and validation analyses (using PHENOPEDIA and meta-analysis database extrameta.org) highlight top genes regulated by exercise such as CD6, HLA-C, TNFRSF1A, MYD88, and NFKBIA genes in boys and RAC1, ANXA6, FYN, INPP5D, PIK3CD and SPARC genes in girls. Conclusion: These results suggest that 20-week exercise program influences different immune processes in children with overweight/obesity. The transcriptome differences between boys and girls could partly be explained, in addition to the gender differences, by the distinct intensity in the exercise intervention as boys had stronger exercise stimulus in training. Our findings should be considered exploratory and preliminary given the relatively small sample size. Larger and more powered randomized controlled trials should confirm or contrast our findings.

Project description:MicroRNAs are increasingly seen as targets of drug discovery because they influence gene function acting both to silence and subtly modulate protein translation. Little is known about effects of dynamic physiological states on microRNA regulation in humans. We hypothesized that microRNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) would be affected by brief exercise. Twelve young men performed brief bouts of heavy exercise. PBMC microRNA was analyzed before and immediately after exercise using the Agilent Human microRNA V2 Microarray. Exercise altered expression level of 34 microRNAs (FDR < 0.05). Many of them play roles in inflammatory processes (e.g., miR-125b[↓], down-regulated by proinflammatory factor LPS; and miR-132[↑], 125b[↓] and let-7e[↓] involved inTLR4 signaling). Using previous exercise data in PBMCs, we linked the microRNA changes to specific gene pathways. This analysis identified 12 pathways including the TGF-β and MAPK signaling. We also compared exercise-associated microRNA changes in PBMCs with the exercise-associated microRNAs previously identified in neutrophils. Nine microRNAs were affected in both PBMCs and neutrophils, but only six changed in the same direction. A commonly occurring physiologic perturbation, brief heavy exercise, changes microRNA profiles in PBMCs, many of which are related to inflammatory processes. The pattern of change suggests that exercise differentially influences microRNAs in leukocyte subtypes.
