Project description:We performed microarray-based expression profiling on liver of male zebrafish exposed to 5, 50, and 500 µg/L of benzo-[A]-pyrene (BAP) for 24 and 96 hours, to identify global transcriptional programs and biological pathways involved in BAP-induced adaptive responses under in vivo environment. We analyzed 34 arrays of BAP-treated adult male zebrafish liver and 15 arrays of control fish.

Project description:Lack of change in microRNA expression in adult mouse liver following treatment with benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), as detected using Exiqon miRNA arrays. Adult male mice were exposed to 150 mg/kg benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) or solvent for 3 days and sampled 4 hours after the last dose. MicroRNA expression levels in adult mouse liver were measured using Exiqon miRNA arrays. Our results indicate a distinct lack of effect of BaP of miRNA expression, despite widespread changes in mRNA levels (measured using Agilent arrays). Lack of miRNA changes was confirmed with Agilent miRNA arrays. Keywords: Toxicology, miRNA
Project description:Lack of change in microRNA expression in adult mouse liver following treatment with benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), as detected using Agilent miRNA arrays. We have investigated the effect of exposure to 150 mg/kg benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) for 3 days on mRNA and miRNA expression levels in adult mouse liver. We used Agilent miRNA array platforms to assess effects of BaP exposure on miRNA expression levels. Our results indicate a distinct lack of effect of BaP of miRNA expression, despite widespread changes in mRNA levels. Keywords: Toxicology, miRNA
