Project description:Differential gene regulation in Helicobacter hepaticus between wild type bacteria and fliA mutant 3 biological experiments of both wild type and fliA mutant bacteria (1-3) and 2 replicates (dye flip) of each biological experiment
Project description:We are investigating the transcriptional response of mice infected with Helicobacter hepaticus and links to liver cancer We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying H. hepaticus induced liver cancer Keywords: disease model
Project description:We evaluated aflatoxin B1-induced liver tumor promotion by H. hepaticus. Microarrays of liver and cecum from female mice were used to evaluate the individual and combined transcriptional effects of AFB1 and H. hepaticus Keywords: Tumor co-promotion study
Project description:We are investigating the transcriptional response of mice infected with Helicobacter hepaticus and links to liver cancer; We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying H. hepaticus induced liver cancer Experiment Overall Design: Mice with tumors were compared to mice with infection only (comparison 2) and mice infected were compared to control mice (comparison 1)
Project description:We evaluated aflatoxin B1-induced liver tumor promotion by H. hepaticus. Microarrays of liver and cecum from female mice were used to evaluate the individual and combined transcriptional effects of AFB1 and H. hepaticus Experiment Overall Design: C3H/HeN mice were inoculated with 7 ug/g BW AFB1 or vehicle IP at 10 days of age, and gavaged with H. hepaticus or broth at 3 weeks; necropsied at 40 weeks
Project description:Identification of pro- and anti-inflammatory pathways induced in M-CSF differentiated bone-marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs) after 3 h stimulation with two different TLR2 agonists, Helicobacter hepaticus polysacharide and Pam3CSK4 (75 ng/ml), using TSB (Tryptone Soya Broth) medium as a control
Project description:We are investigating hepatic transcriptional responses associated with castration and tumorigenic hepatitis induced by Helicobacter hepaticus infection in mature male A/JCr mice; Microarray data demonstrated a global loss of gender-dimorphic gene expression regulation in mice with chronic hepatitis and liver cancer Experiment Overall Design: Male A/JCr mice were inoculated with H. hepaticus or vehicle at 4 weeks; some underwent castration at 1 year, and all were necropsied at 21 months
