ABSTRACT: Effect of bone marrow-specific aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) gene knockout on expression profiles of hematopoietic stem cells from young and old mice.
Project description:As part of a study of the role of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) in maintenance and senescence of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), global gene expression profiling was done with HSC isolated from bone marrow restricted conditional Ahr-knockout and AhR floxed mice. HSC from young-adult (8 wk old) cAhR-KO mice had changes in expression of many genes related to HSC maintenance, consistent with the phenotype observed in Ahr-KO mice. Aged cAhR-KO mice (18 months old) also displayed alterations in peripheral white blood cell counts, serial repopulation potential and levels of ROS in bone marrow cells, consistent with previous observations on the role of AhR in the hematopoietic system. 22 samples: 5 young Ahr knockout, 6 old Ahr knockout, 5 young floxed Ahr, 6 old floxed Ahr

HSC from young-adult (8 wk old) AhR-KO mice had changes in expression of many genes related to HSC maintenance, consistent with the phenotype observed in aging Ahr-KO mice: decreased survival rate, splenomegaly, increased circulating white blood cells, hematopoietic cell accumulation in tissues, anemia, increased numbers of stem/progenitor and lineage-committed cells in bone marrow, decreased erythroid progenitor cells in bone marrow, and decreased self-renewal capacity of HSC. 7 samples: 3 Ahr knockout, 4 wild-type

Project description:To investigate the RNA differences in skeletal muscle in muscle-specific AHR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor) knockout mice and their AHR-floxed littermate controls (wildtype) following a 16-week chronic cigarette smoke exposure intervention
Project description:We have generated transgenic mice expressing constitutively activated aryl hydrocarbon receptor (CA-AhR) to examine the biological consequences of AhR activation.. We used microarrays to identify genes that are regulated by AhR. Livers or intestines from three female mice were pooled at 5-6 week-old for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array.
Project description:Emerging studies revealed an immunomodulatory role of the Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a receptor sensing environmental contaminants, and involved in their detoxification. Besides its function as a transcription factor, AhR can participate in non-genomic signaling through ubiquitination and phosphorylation-dependent processes. In this study, a multi-PTM-omics approach, including proteome, ubiquitome, and phosphoproteome, was utilized to examine mechanisms of non-genomic AhR-signaling in endotoxin-activated monocyte-derived macrophages. This dataset entails proteome and phosphoproteome data.
Project description:Hematopoietic progenitors from AML patients express the aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling pathway. Independent of in vivo engraftability to detect leukemic stem cells, AHR antagonism allows in vitro survival and expansion of AML progenitors, while retaining patient-to-patient heterogeneity. Based on AML expression data, we show that AHR antagonism disrupts the AHR signaling pathway but it doesn't affect the overall genomic profile of the samples
