Project description:Affymetrix Gene ST 1.0 arrays were performed on total RNA obtained from ovaries of 5 female mice (pregnant or non-pregnant; mock or MCMV infection). Mice were infected 9.5 days post conception with 2x10e05 PFU MCMV i.v.. RNA was prepared at 5 days post infection (14.5 days post conception).

Project description:To study the effect of pregnancy on mouse mammary epithelial subpopulations, epthelial cells derived from virgin or pregnant (12.5 day pregnant) mice were isolated using fluorescence-activated cell sorting. After elimination of haematopoietic and endothelial cells, two distinct epithelial subpopulations were sorted using antibodies against CD29 and CD24. Based on the immunohistochemical phenotype, and in vivo and in vitro functional assays, these subpopulations were identified as mammary stem cell enriched (CD29hiCD24+) and luminal (CD29loCD24+) respectively (ref: Shackleton et al, Nature 2006). Microarray profiling was used to compare gene expression profiles of the two subpopulations in 12.5 day pregnant and virgin mice.

Project description:Since Anopheles gambiae female mosquitoes mate only once in their lifetime, and store sperm received from males potentially for weeks, genes and pathways regulated by mating in the sperm storage organ (spermatheca) to preserve sperm function may represent new targets for vector control. The transcriptional response to mating in the spermatheca was investigated using Agilent two-color microarrays. Spermathecae from mated females were collected 24 h after mating and compared to age-matched virgins. 4 biological replicates were performed.

Project description:ABSTRACT:Pregnancy requires a higher functional beta cell mass and this is associated with profound changes in the gene expression profile of pancreatic islets. Taking Tph1 as a sensitive marker for pregnancy-related islet mRNA expression in female mice, we previously identified prolactin receptors and placental lactogen as key signalling molecules. Since beta cells from male mice also express prolactin receptors, the question arose whether male and female islets have the same phenotypic resilience at the mRNA level during pregnancy. We addressed this question in vitro, by using islet tissue culture with placental lactogen and in vivo, by transplanting male or female islets into female acceptor mice. Additionally, the islet mRNA expression of pregnant prolactin receptor deficient mice was compared with that of their pregnant wild-type littermates. When cultured with placental lactogen, or transplanted in female recipients that became pregnant (day 12.5), male islets induced the ‘islet pregnancy gene signature’, which we defined as the 12 highest induced genes in non-transplanted female islets at day 12.5 of pregnancy. In addition, serotonin immunoreactivity was also induced in these male transplanted islets at day 12.5 of pregnancy. In order to investigate the importance of prolactin receptors in these mRNA changes we used a prolactin receptor deficient mouse model. For the 12 genes of the signature, which are highly induced in control pregnant mice, no significant induction of mRNA transcripts was found at day 9.5 of pregnancy. Together, our results support the key role of placental lactogen as a circulating factor that can trigger the pregnancy mRNA profile in male and female beta cells. Islets were isolated from non-prengant (NP) and pregnant (day 9.5) PRLR+/+ and PRLR-/- mice for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. For every condition 3 biological replicates were used.

The data obtained from the normal islets of pregnant mice (day12.5) was already described in Schraenen et al. 2010 (PMID: 20886204 and PMID: 20938637). Islets and islet grafts were isolated from non-prengant and pregnant mice for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. For every condition, at least 3 biological replicates were used.

Project description:Gene level analysis of lactating day 10-11 16h Sprague-Dawley dams compared against age matched virgins. Lactation is a time of significantly increased energy demands imposed by the suckling young that requires a proportional adjustment in the ability of the lactating dam to absorb nutrients and to synthesize critical biomolecules to meet the dietary needs of both the offspring and the dam. We have shown an increase in the size and hydrophobicity of the bile acid pool during lactation [1], implying an increased absorption and disposition of lipids, sterols, nutrients, and xenobiotics. In order to investigate changes at the level of mRNA, we utilized an exon array and calculated gene level summaries to investigate changes in gene expression in the liver, duodenum, jejunum, and ileum of lactating dams when compared against age-matched virgin controls. Affymetrix Rat Exon 1.0ST arrays were used to determine expression of genes in the livers and small intestines of day 10-11 lactating Sprague Dawley rats and compared against virgins of comparable age.

Project description:Affymetrix Gene ST 1.0 arrays were performed on total RNA obtained from ovaries of 5 female mice (pregnant or non-pregnant; mock or MCMV infection). Mice were infected 9.5 days post conception with 2x10e05 PFU MCMV i.v.. RNA was prepared at 5 days post infection (14.5 days post conception). Total RNA prepared from ovaries of 5 mice per condition was pooled and subjected to microarray analysis. Data were normalised using RMA.

For each biological replicate, mammary gland from virgin or 12.5 day pregnant FVB/NJ mice were collected and digested to obtain a single cell suspension. CD45-CD31-TER119- cells were then sorted based on the expression of cell surface markers CD24 and CD29. There were 4 pools of pregant mice and 3 pools of virgin mice.
