Project description:The objective was to compare gene expression in salmon precocious and non-precocious parr testis tissue. Nine microarray hybridisations were carried out in total as part of this loop design. Total RNA from 3 pools(PG1-PG3) each of 4 precocious fish testes were compared with 3 pools (NP1-NP3) each of 10 non-precocious fish testes. There were no direct dye swaps but there was overall dye balance in the loop

Project description:Juvenile gilthead sea bream of 10-15 g initial body weight were randomly distributed in eight 500-L tanks in a seawater re-circulatory system equipped with physical and biological filters, and a heat-unit system that maintained water temperature above 18-19 ºC. Fish grew from July to December at a density of 8-10 kg/m3 with an overall daily growth index of 1.9 ± 0.01. Extruded pellets (47 % protein, 21% lipid; Proaqua, Palencia, Spain) were offered to visual satiety. Feeding was stopped one day before confinement exposure, and batches of 10 fish were then transferred from two 500-L tanks to cylinder net baskets of 10-L volume (117-123 Kg/m3), suspended each one in 90-L tanks with a high flow of seawater (10 L/min) to avoid water deterioration (Oxygen > 5 ppm; unionised ammonia < 0.02 mg/L). Fish from seven additional 500-L tanks were established as control groups, and remained undisturbed prior to sampling at zero and each sampling time. At each sampling time (1.5, 3, 6, 24, 72 and 120 h), eight fish from one control and one confinement tank were netted into a bucket to be anaesthetized with 0.1 g/L 3-aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester (MS-222). Fish were killed by cervical section and liver was taken, frozen immediately in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80 ºC until RNA isolation. Only 6h, 72h and 120h were analysed on the microarray. The experimental design was a reference design with the reference being prepared from a pool of all (confined and control) RNAs used in the microarray analysis. All samples were hybridised twice (except L72C5R, L120C2F, L120S4F, L24C4F) with one being the dye swap of the other. Keywords: Time Course 72 samples

Project description:We have used cDNA microarrays to compare gene expression profiles in brains from normal mice to those infected with the Anka strain of Plasmodium berghei, a model of cerebral malaria. For each of three brains in each group, we computed ratios of all quantifiable genes with a composite reference sample and then computed ratios of gene expression in infected brains with untreated controls. Of the almost 12,000 unigenes adequateluy quantified in all arrays, about 3% were significantly downregulated (p<0.05, >50% fold change) and about 7% were upregulated. Upon inspection of the lists of regulated genes, we identified a high number encoding proteins of importance to normal brain function or associated with neuropathology. These results emphasize the important impact of malarial infection on gene expression in brain and provide tentative target biomarkers that might provide novel therapeutic targets for neurological sequelae of disease. We have used a previously published protocol (Iacobas et al., Physiol Genomics 2005) and a composite reference RNA sample (R) prepared in sufficient quantity for the entire experiment from ten adult mouse tissues (aorta, brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, ovary/testicles, spleen, and stomach - equal amounts from males and females). This combination of source tissues provided a high diversity of genes expressed in the midrange of the detection system for the AECOM mouse cDNA microarrays. Briefly, 60μg total RNA, extracted in Trizol® (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) from brains of three infected (I) and three control (C) mice, purified with RNeasy® mini kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA), were reverse transcribed into cDNA incorporating fluorescent Cy3-dUTP. The composite reference was reverse transcribed to incorporate Cy5-dUTP. Each of the six Cy3-labeled brain extracts was co-hybridized overnight at 50°C against the Cy5-labeled reference with AECOM 32k Mouse oligonucleotide arrays, MO3 printing series (platform described in http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GPL5371). After hybridization, the slides were washed at room temperature, using solutions containing 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and 1% SSC (3M NaCl + 0.3M sodium citrate) to remove the non-hybridized cDNAs.

Project description:Use of null mutant mice is a powerful way to evaluate the role of specific proteins in brain function. Studies performed on knockout mice have revealed some unexpected roles of the gap junction proteins (the connexins). Thus, analyses of gene expression in connexin43 (Cx43) null brains indicated that deletion of a single gene (Gja1) induced expression level change of numerous other genes located on all chromosomes and involved in a wide diversity of functional pathways. The significant overlap between alterations in gene expression level, control and coordination in Cx43 knockout and knockdown astrocytes raised the possibility that Gja1 represents a transcriptomic node of gene regulatory networks. However, conditional deletion of Gja1 in astrocytes of two mouse strains resulted in remarkably different phenotypes. In order to evaluate the influence of the genetic background on the transcriptome, we performed microarray studies on brains of GFAP-Cre:Cx43f/f C57Bl/6 and 129/SVEV mice. The surprisingly low number of Cx43 core genes (regulated in all Cx43 nulls regardless of strain) and the high number of differently regulated genes in the two Cx43 CKOs indicate high influence of mouse strain on brain transcriptome. The transcriptomes of WT and Cx43 null brains from both C57Bl/6 and SVEV strains were profiled and compared at perinatal and adult time points to learn more about the strain dependence of the Cx43-null phenotype. For this purpose, differently labeled cDNAs from biological replicas (4 of each genotype) were co-hybridized with Duke MO36K mouse oligonucleotide array spotted with 36k Operon oligonucleotides V4.0.

Project description:We analysed the effect of the deficiency Df(2R)ED3921 and Df(2R)ED50000 on gene expression in embryos (stage 0-11), and wing imaginal discs and brains from 3rd instar larvae. Df(2R)ED3921 and Df(2R)ED50000 were described in Ragab et al. (2005) Genetics 172:1069-1078 2005. RNA from Df(2R)ED3921 and Df(2R)ED50000 embryos was compared to a pool of RNA extracted from wild-type embryos at the same stage. For each genotype, 4 independent biological replicates were performed (2 of these dyes swapped with respect to the other two). The same experimental protocol and genotypes were used for the analysis in dissected wing imaginal discs and brains from 3rd instar larvae.

Project description:The accompanying dataset is the result of a systematic study to identify the RNA cargoes associated with the cytoskeletal motor proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We immunopurified, via the use of integrated, C-terminal GFP and 9Myc tags, the five actomyosin motors, Myo1, Myo2, Myo3, Myo4, and Myo5; the kinesin-like proteins Kar3, Kip1, Kip2, Kip3, and Smy1; and the dynein, Dyn1, from S. cerevisiae. Cells were either treated with formaldehyde or with the small molecule latrunculin B. We used formaldehyde crosslinking to stabilize associations between motors proteins and interacting RNAs before IP. Yeast cells growing exponentially in rich medium were treated with formaldehyde, lysed and sonicated, then incubated with magnetic beads coupled to monoclonal antibodies against either 9Myc or GFP to isolate the tagged motor proteins along with any associated RNAs. After IP, the formaldehyde crosslinks were reversed and the enriched RNAs and RNAs purified from the corresponding total lysate were amplified and labeled respectively with Cy5 and Cy3, then jointly hybridized to custom-made, S. cerevisiae oligonucleotide microarrays (Hogan et al., PLoS Biology, 2008). Alternatively, the addition of a low concentration of latrunculin B (2 ug/ml) to live cells to partially solubilize the actin cytoskeleton allowed for successful IP of the motor proteins and associated mRNAs without the need for a chemical crosslinker. In both the case of latrunculin B and formaldehyde treatment, we also performed IPs in which the untagged parent yeast strains were processed for IP and microarray analysis in a manner identical to that of the tagged strains (labeled as mock). transcription profiling
