Project description:The aim was to examine changes in gene expression of the endometrium exposed to long-term tamoxifen treatment in comparison to age matched controls. To achieve this, endometrial tissues were obtained from women receiving tamoxifen treatment who were undergoing a hysterectomy. Using cDNA microarrays, gene expression changes in the postmenopausal endometrium of these women was compared with that in endometrium of age matched women not receiving tamoxifen. Keywords: Gene expression changes in the postmenopausal endometrium of women following tamoxifen treatment

Project description:Background: Endometrial organoids are useful tools for studying endometrial biology but are derived from endoemtrial tissue obtained invasively from biopsies and mostly from women not taking hormonal medication. To increase the proportion of women from which endometrial organoids can be obtained, we sought to compare endometrial organoids derived from menstrual fluid and hormone-treated endometrium with standard endometrial organoids. Purpose: To determine if organoids derived from menstrual fluid and hormone-treated endometrium share features with standard endometrial organoids. Methods: RNA sequencing was performed on passage 3 day 7 menstrual fluid organoids (MFO), endometrial organoids from women taking hormonal medication (EMO-H) and standard endometrial organoids (EMO) Results: to determine if organoids derived from menstrual fluid and hormone-treated endometrium share features with staandard endometrial organoids. Conclusions: MFO and EMO-H did not cluster distinctly to EMO, indicating that they share features with EMO and may enable population-wide disease modelling. This is the first publicly available data set demonstrating the transcriptome of EMO-H.

Project description:The aim was to examine changes in gene expression of the endometrium exposed to long-term tamoxifen treatment in comparison to age matched controls. To achieve this, endometrial tissues were obtained from women receiving tamoxifen treatment who were undergoing a hysterectomy. Using cDNA microarrays, gene expression changes in the postmenopausal endometrium of these women was compared with that in endometrium of age matched women not receiving tamoxifen. Endometrial tissue from post-menopausal women was obtained following ethical approval from the Leicester NHS Trust. None of the women had received any hormonal treatment for two months prior to the procurement of the specimens. Tissues were taken from untreated women (n=6) or those treated for 4 to 5 years with tamoxifen (20mg/day) (n=4), aged 58-82 (65 ± 9.1, mean ± SD). Total RNA was extracted. Controls were pooled. RNA labelling, hybridisation and analysis of fluorescence was carried out as described by Turton et al (2001). Cy3/Cy5 Dye swap labelling was carried out on samples from each patient.

Project description:Kynureninase is a member of a large family of catalytically diverse but structurally homologous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes known as the aspartate aminotransferase superfamily or alpha-family. The Homo sapiens and other eukaryotic constitutive kynureninases preferentially catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine to produce 3-hydroxyanthranilate and l-alanine, while l-kynurenine is the substrate of many prokaryotic inducible kynureninases. The human enzyme was cloned with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag, expressed, and purified from a bacterial expression system using Ni metal ion affinity chromatography. Kinetic characterization of the recombinant enzyme reveals classic Michaelis-Menten behavior, with a Km of 28.3 +/- 1.9 microM and a specific activity of 1.75 micromol min-1 mg-1 for 3-hydroxy-dl-kynurenine. Crystals of recombinant kynureninase that diffracted to 2.0 A were obtained, and the atomic structure of the PLP-bound holoenzyme was determined by molecular replacement using the Pseudomonas fluorescens kynureninase structure (PDB entry 1qz9) as the phasing model. A structural superposition with the P. fluorescens kynureninase revealed that these two structures resemble the "open" and "closed" conformations of aspartate aminotransferase. The comparison illustrates the dynamic nature of these proteins' small domains and reveals a role for Arg-434 similar to its role in other AAT alpha-family members. Docking of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine into the human kynureninase active site suggests that Asn-333 and His-102 are involved in substrate binding and molecular discrimination between inducible and constitutive kynureninase substrates.

Project description:Modification of Gene Expression of Skeletal Muscle in Response to postmenopause with or without Hormone Replacement Therapy. Even though menopause is often accompanied with first signs of age-associated changes in muscle structure and function, the effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or menopause-related decline in estrogen production in the muscles of postmenopausal women is not well understood. We have used a randomized double-blinded study design together with an explorative microarray experiment to characterize possible effects of continuous, combined HRT and estrogen deprivation on the skeletal muscle of fifteen early postmenopausal women from which 10 used HRT and 5 used placebo for 12-months in a douple-blinded design. Keywords: time course analysis from HRT users and non-users comparison of gene expression in skeletal muscle of healthy postmenopausel women using HRT (n=10) vs not-using HRT (n=5)
