Project description:In this study we have examined the effect of sub-cytotoxic exposure to aristolochic acids (1.65µM) at 6h, 24h and 72h on the whole-genome expression profile in a rat proximal renal tubule cell line (NRK-52E). We used microarrays to detail the mechanism of toxicity and possibly carcinogenicity of aristolochic acids in rat renal proximal cells.
Project description:messengerRNA-sequencing and analysis of in vitro differentiated Th17 cells isolated from WT, Slc2a3-fl/fl Cd4-cre or Acöy-fl/fl Cd4-cre mice in the presence or absence of 20 mM acetate for 24h.
Project description:Chlorothalonil (2,4,5,6-tetrachloroisophthalonitrile) is a widely used broad spectrum fungicide. Despite its common use, chlorothalonil is classified by IARC as Group 2B, a possible human carcinogen, with formation of renal tubular adenomas and carcinomas in rats of both sexes and in male mice. In this study we have examined the effect of sub-cytotoxic exposure to chlorothalonil at 6h, 24h and 72h on the whole-genome expression profile in a rat proximal renal tubule cell line (NRK-52E). We used microarrays to detail the mechanism of toxicity and possibly carcinogenicity.
Project description:We explored the impact of transforming growth factor β receptor III (TGFBR3) knockdown on the gene expression in the human pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (hPASMC), following 6h, 12h, 18h and 24h.
Project description:In this study we have examined the effect of sub-cytotoxic exposure to aristolochic acids (1.65µM) at 6h, 24h and 72h on the whole-genome expression profile in a rat proximal renal tubule cell line (NRK-52E). We used microarrays to detail the mechanism of toxicity and possibly carcinogenicity of aristolochic acids in rat renal proximal cells. NRK-52E cells were cultured to confluence on 6-well plates. Cells were then exposed to aristolochic acid dissolved in DMSO (0.1%) at the IC10 concentration at 72h (1.65 ?M) or DMSO only as control. After 6h, 24h and 72h the medium was removed and RNA was extracted from the cells. Three studies were conducted at each time point.
