Project description:The total liver proteomes of postnatal-day-7 mice with liver-specific UBA3 deficiency and their littermate controls were compared by two-dimensional (2-D) electrophoresis mapping. 25 protein spots were obviously changed in their expression upon UBA3 deficiency. These 25 protein spots were excised from 2-D gels. After in-gel digestion, the tryptic digests were subjected to mass spectrometric analysis by LC–MS/MS, followed by database searching. Here, we identified ETFA expression in spot 14, which was decreased in UBA3-deficient conditions.
Project description:Gene expression profiling was performed using the total RNA isolated from pooled esophagi (plural of esophagus) of embryonic day 15.5 (E15.5) C57BL/6 mouse embryos and total RNA isolated from pooled esophagi of postnatal day 2 (P2) C57BL/6 pups. The goal was to identify differentially regulated genes in these two separate developmental stages.

Project description:To investigate the transcriptome changes in embryonic and postnatal mouse hearts, we performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of C57BL/6J mouse hearts at embryonic day 18.5 (E18.5d), postnatal 1st day (P1d) and postnatal 7th day (P7d).
Project description:The gene expression profiles of control vs AGTR2 knockout mouse whole brains at developmental stage E15 and postnatal day 1 were examined. Experiment Overall Design: Embryonic day 15: six biological control replicates and eight biological AGTR2 knockout replicates, one control and knockout replicate to an array with a dye-swap, except for 2 without a dye-swap Experiment Overall Design: Postnatal day 1: four biological control replicates and four biological AGTR2 knockout replicates, one control and knockout replicate to an array with a dye-swap
Project description:During the perinatal period, unique metabolic adaptations support energetic requirements for rapid growth. To gain insight into perinatal adaptations, quantitative proteomics were performed comparing the livers of yorkshire pigs at postnatal day seven and adult. These data revealed differences in the metabolic control of liver function including significant changes in lipid and carbohydrate metabolic pathways. Newborn livers showed an enrichment of proteins in lipid catabolism and gluconeogenesis concomitant with elevated liver carnitine and acylcarnitines levels. Sugar kinases were some of the most dramatically differentially enriched proteins comparing neonatal and adult pigs including galactokinase 1 (Galk1), ketohexokinase (KHK), hexokinase 1 (HK1) and hexokinase 4 (GCK). Interestingly, hexokinase domain containing 1 (HKDC1), an enigmatic fifth hexokinase associated with glucose disturbances in pregnant women was highly enriched in the liver during the prenatal and perinatal periods and continuously declined throughout postnatal development in pigs and mice. These changes were confirmed via Western blot and mRNA expression. These data provide new insights into the developmental and metabolic adaptations in the liver during the transition from the perinatal period to adulthood in multiple mammalian species.
Project description:The developing brain is particularly sensitive to ethanol during the brain growth spurt or synaptogenesis (third human trimester equivalent). This has been shown to lead to abnormal brain development and behavioural changes in the adult mouse that are relevant to those seen in humans with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD). We evaluated the acute (4h post-treatment) gene expression changes that occur in the brain due to ethanol exposure during synaptogenesis (postnatal day 7). We used microarray analyses to evaluate the changes in brain gene expression at postnatal day 7 that occur due to ethanol treatment at postnatal day 7 (synaptogenesis).
Project description:Liver undergoes both size increase and differentiation during postnatal period, which in mice is approximately first 30 days. The mechanisms of simultaneous postnatal liver cell proliferation and maturation are not clear. In these experiments, role of yes associated protein (Yap), the downstream effector of Hippo Kinase signaling pathway was investigated. Total RNA isolated from livers of Yap+/+ and Yap+/- mice at Postnatal day 30. Pooled livers from 5 mice per genotype were used.
Project description:mRNA degradation critically contributes to liver development and function. The CCR4-NOT complex serves as a major deadenylase that initiates mRNA degradation. We used microarrays to identify deregulated genes in the livers lacking Cnot3, a core subunit of the CCR4-NOT complex.
