Project description:The current study was designed to clarify signalling pathways and assess possible beneficial effect of new probiotic mixture in DSS (dextran sulphate sodium) – induced colitis mouse model. Manipulation of intestinal microbiota with probiotics represents a promising alternative or adjunct therapy in gastrointestinal disorders and inflammation. RNA extracted from the middle part of colon tissue from ~11 weeks female C57BL/6JOlaHsd mouse strain was used for examination of the global gene expression using Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 2.0 ST microarrays.

Project description:Certain neuron types fire spontaneously at high rates, an ability that is crucial for their function in brain circuits. The spontaneously active GABAergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr), a major output of the basal ganglia, provide tonic inhibition of downstream brain areas. A depolarizing "leak" current supports this firing pattern, but its molecular basis remains poorly understood. To understand how SNr neurons maintain tonic activity, we used single-cell RNA sequencing to determine the transcriptome of individual SNr neurons. We discovered that SNr neurons express the sodium leak current, NaLCN and that SNr neurons lacking NaLCN have impaired spontaneous firing.

Project description:In this study we explored if colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in young, presymptomatic/preplaque mice worse and/or anticipate age-dependent cognitive impairment in Tg2576, a widely used mouse model of Alzheimer disease.

Project description:Conduction slowing of the electric impulse that drives the heartbeat may evoke lethal cardiac arrhythmias. Mutations in SCN5A, which encodes the pore-forming cardiac sodium channel alpha subunit, are associated with familial arrhythmia syndromes based on conduction slowing. However, disease severity among mutation carriers is highly variable. We hypothesized that genetic modifiers underlie the variability in conduction slowing and disease severity. With the aim of identifying such modifiers, we studied the Scn5a(1798insD/+) mutation in 2 distinct mouse strains, FVB/N and 129P2. In 129P2 mice, the mutation resulted in more severe conduction slowing particularly in the right ventricle (RV) compared to FVB/N. Pan-genomic mRNA expression profiling in the 2 mouse strains uncovered a drastic reduction in mRNA encoding the sodium channel auxiliary subunit beta4 (Scn4b) in 129P2 mice compared to FVB/N. This corresponded to low to undetectable beta4 protein levels in 129P2 ventricular tissue, whereas abundant beta4 protein was detected in FVB/N. Sodium current measurements in isolated myocytes from the 2 mouse strains indicated that sodium channel activation in myocytes from 129P2 mice occurred at more positive potentials compared to FVB/N. Using computer simulations, this difference in activation kinetics was predicted to explain the observed differences in conduction disease severity between the 2 strains. In conclusion, genetically determined differences in sodium current characteristics on the myocyte level modulate disease severity in cardiac sodium channelopathies. In particular, the sodium channel subunit beta4 (SCN4B) may constitute a potential genetic modifier of conduction and cardiac sodium channel disease.

Project description:By using a model of inflammation-induced carcinogenesis the effects of TSP-1 in induced tumors were analyzed. Mice received a single injection of azoxymethane (AOM) and multiple cycles of dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) for inducing chronic inflammation-related cancers. Proliferation and angiogenesis status were analyzed as well as their transcript profile by using a gene microarray approach. We used Affymetrix GeneChips to determine the changes in the genetic profile between WT and TSP-1 deficient tumors in a model of colorectal carcinogenesis. We identified differentially expressed genes between WT and TSP-1 deficient tumors. WT and TSP-1 deficient mice were with a single injection of AOM and were drinking 1.5%DSS (dextran sulfate sodium) to induce colitis in four cycles. Wt mice drinking water only was used as reference. Mice were sacrificed and tumors excised for these studies and morphological analyses

Project description:The causal relationships between inflammation and cancer are now widely recognized and discussed. Epidemiological and experimental studies have shown that patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are major risk factors for developing CRC than the general population. Approximately 18.4% of patients with IBD are reported to develop into colitis associated cancer (CAC) within 30 years after the onset of disease . CAC has become the major cause of death in IBD patients. While these mechanisms by which chronic inflammation promotes colonic carcinogenesis are being investigated, many unanswered questions remain. Circular RNA (CircRNA) is a newly discovered type of non-coding RNAs, which is involved in the colorectal cancer (CRC) development by diverse mechanisms. In our current study, we employed the widely used Dextran Sodium Sulfate (DSS)-induced acute colitis and Azoxymethane (AOM)/DSS-induced CAC models to screen the circRNA and mRNA expression profiles in inflammation and inflammation-associated cancer by the high throughput sequencing.
