Project description:This laboratory works on selectins and their carbohydrate ligands in lymphocyte homing and inflammation. The lab also studies heparin-degrading endosulfatases and their roles in regulating the interactions of growth factors and morphogens with proteoglycans. Gene expression profiles from null and doubly null mice for 2 sulfotransferases (HED-GlcNAc6ST and GlcNAc6ST-1) will be compared to WT mice to find impact on L-selectin ligand formation in lymph nodes. RNA was isolated from the lymph nodes of the 2 types of null mice, 1 type of double null mice, and 1 of wild type mice. 3 duplicates of each strain were analyzed by gene expression profiling. We have null mice and doubly null in two sulfotransferases (HEC-GlcNAc6T and GlcNAc6ST-1) involved in L-selectin ligand formation in lymph nodes. Our functional analysis reveal partial loss (50 and 25%)of lymph node L-selectin ligands in the singly null mice and an 80%loss in the double null mice. We want to identify candidates for the protein scaffolds and underlying posttranslational modifications responsible for the residual L-selectin ligand activity in these mice. We will perform a glycochip analysis with mRNA isolated from lymph nodes of the 3 types of null mice and wild-type mice, all on the C57BL/6 background. Three duplicates from each strain are analyzed, requiring a total of 12 chips. The mice are 8-10 weeks of age and all female.

Project description:This laboratory works on selectins and their carbohydrate ligands in lymphocyte homing and inflammation. The lab also studies heparin-degrading endosulfatases and their roles in regulating the interactions of growth factors and morphogens with proteoglycans. The purpose of the experiment is to examine gene expression profiles in spinal cords of injured as a function of time after a contusion injury. The tissue will be generated in the lab of Linda Noble, Professor in the Department of Neurological Surgery at UCSF who is an expert on the pathogenesis of spinal cord injury. Wild-type male C57B/6 mice (8-10 weeks of age) were used. Injuries were produced by contusion. Spinal cords from control mice (uninjured) and experimental (injured) mice were processed (4 and 7 days after injury). A 3 mm length of spinal cord (centered at the injury) and a 3 mm segment from a distant site were isolated from each animal. Tissue from 3 mice were pooled for each sample. Three replicate samples per treatment group were processed for RNA. Thus, a total of 18 RNA samples were hybridized to 18 gene chips. The analysis will determine whether specific glycosylation changes accompany spinal cord injury. Of particular interest are changes in the sulfation profile of proteoglycan GAG chains (e.g., chondroitin sulfate) and in the appearance of potential carbohydrate ligands for infiltrating leukocytes bearing L-selectin or other endogenous lectins.

This laboratory also works on the design and synthesis of small molecule inhibitors of glycosylation. Gene expression in F9 teratocarcinoma cells: Study of the differential expression of glycosyltransferases, sulfotransferases and proteoglycan core proteins in F9 teratocarcinoma cells before and after differentiation with retinoic acid/theophylline/cAMP. Published data indicated that differentiation of the cells induces the synthesis of anticoagulant heparin-like compounds and a large increase in overall glycosaminoglycan synthesis.

Project description:UV irradiation is a major environmental effector of skin damage and aging. Elevated levels of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), as measured by Hale’s stain, are seen following cutaneous photodamage. Preliminary data from our lab indicates that this is a complex response involving differential regulation of both GAGs and proteoglycans. Recently, different GAG species have been shown to have distinct effects on the recruitment and activation of immune cells and stimulation of cytokine production (Taylor and Gallo, FASEB, 2006; 20: 9-22). We speculate that the elevated GAGs and proteoglycans observed after ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation are involved in the inflammatory and healing responses to photodamage.

Project description:Background: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are a promising cell source for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. In our lab, we found that cell preparations from bone marrow of many donors had a limited capacity for in vitro-differentiation into the osteogenic and chondrogenic lineages although this is a capacity claimed to be inherent to this kind of cells. Therefore the current study was designed to test the hypothesis whether the amount of heparin used as anti-coagulant during bone marrow harvest has inhibitory influence on the in vitro-differentiation capacity of the isolated MSCs. Methods: Bone marrow was obtained from twelve donors with good physical condition during preparation of the femoral cavity for the implantation of the femoral stem for a total hip arthroplasty in the absence or presence of heparin. Isolated MSCs were characterized by plastic adhesion, morphology, population doubling times, expression of cell surface antigens and in vitro-differentiation into the adipogenic, osteogenic and chondrogenic lineages. In addition, transcriptome analyses were performed. Results: Bone marrow prepared in the absence of heparin showed a comparable processability as bone marrow in the presence of heparin. Notably, no coagulation was observed. The number of mononuclear cells retrieved from the density gradient was independent of heparin addition. Moreover, none of the phenotypic or functional parameters assessed correlated with the addition of heparin. Transcriptome and quantitative realtime PCR analyses demonstrated that some selected genes were up- or downregulated in the cells isolated with the addition of heparin. However, this statement held true for only some but not all of the donors investigated in the present study. Conclusions: No correlation with heparin addition was observed with respect to the parameters assessed in the present study. This implies the absence of consequences both for the results of in vitro-investigations and also during in vivo-application, thereby ruling out heparin as a potential source of disparate results that are described in the literature.
