Project description:miRNA expression was compared in skin from control newborn mice and littermate mice ectopically expressing the potent secreted WNT inhibitor Dickkopf 1 (DKK1) in the epidermis. DKK1 completely suppresses hair follicle development. Multiple miRNAs were identified that reproducibly produced signals above background in both types of skin sample. Several miRNAs were identified for which hybridization signals were on average more than 2.5 fold higher in control samples than in Dkk1-expressing samples, suggesting these may be upregulated in hair follicles, and/or are direct or indirect targets of WNT inhibition in the skin. Keywords: miRNA expression array, transgenic mouse, skin, WNT Low molecular weight RNA was isolated using the mirVana RNA extraction kit (Ambion) from full thickness dorsal skin of three K5-rtTA; tetO-Dkk1 newborn mice and three control littermates following doxycycline treatment from E0.5 to induce expression of Dkk1 in double transgenic epidermis [1]. Control and Dkk1âexpressing transgenic samples were tagged for labeling with Cy3 and Cy5 dyes respectively using the Ncode miRNA Labeling System (Invitrogen), mixed by equal mass, and co-hybridized to miRNA arrays that have been described previously [2]. Background-corrected median signals for pixels from each probe spot in both the Cy3 and Cy5 channels were used for analysis. Cy3 (control samples C2, C4, C5) was detected at 532nm and Cy5 (Dkk1âexpressing transgenic samples TG1, TG2, TG4) at 635 nm.

Project description:In order to study the function of the Campylobacter jejuni Cj1501 gene, a series of experiments were carried out. Three strains were constructed: a Cj1501 knockout strain, a strain where the Cj1501 knockout was complemented in trans, and a strain with a second copy over-expressing Cj1501 from an fdxA promoter. The transcriptomes of these were all compared to the wild-type strain. The arrays are all from RNA isolated in mid-exponential growth from independent biological replicates. Batch cultures of Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168 were grown in 50 ml volumes of Brucella broth in 70cm tissue culture flasks. Microaerophilic conditions were generated using a MACS-VA500 microaerophilic work station (5% Oxygen, 10% Carbon dioxide, 85% Nitrogen) from Don Whitley Scientific, Ltd which also maintained the growth temperature at 37 M-BM-:C. RNA was extracted from C. jejuni cultures grown to an OD600 of approximately 0.4. Briefly, 0.1 volume of 5% phenol in ethanol was mixed with the broth culture, and after centrifugation RNA was isolated with Tri Reagent (Sigma) and chloroform. RNA was further purified using the RNeasy kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. The RNA was treated with Turbo DNA-free (Ambion) to remove any residual DNA according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. RNA concentration was determined using the Nanodrop Spectrophotometer NS-1000 (Thermo Scientific). Two or three independent RNA preparations (biological replicates) of each sample type were labelled and hybridized to custom-designed Agilent microarrays. Equal quantities of RNA from test and control cultures were labelled by using nucleotide homologues of dUTP containing either Cy3 or Cy5 fluorescent dye (Perkin Elmer). For each microarray slide, the test strain was labelled with Cy3-dUTP, while the wild-type sample was labelled with Cy5-dUTP. RNA (15 M-BM-5g) was primed with 5 M-BM-5g pd(N)6 random hexamers (Amersham Biosciences). The Affinity Script kit (GE Healthcare) was used to produce cDNA, and hybridized (Agilent Hi-RPM Gene Expression Hybridization Kit) to the microarray slide according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. Microarrays were scanned at 5 M-BM-5m using an Axon 4000A scanner, and images were acquired using GenePix Pro 3.0 software (Axon). Related analysis reference: Holmes K., Mulholland F., Pearson B.

Project description:Fly strains: All transgenes are P[+] in w strains. w+;+;Act 5c > CD2 > GAL4 UAS-GFP (Neufeld et al. 1998 ); y w hs-FLP122; +; UAS-dMyc (Zaffran et al. 1998 ). y w hs-FLP122; +; +. Adult flies and larvae were raised in regular fly food consisting of cornmeal and molasses at 25°C. Larvae overexpressing either UAS-regulated dMyc;GFP or GFP alone transgenes were generated using the Flp/Gal4 method (Struhl and Basler 1993 ; Pignoni and Zipursky 1997 ; Neufeld et al. 1998 ). Larvae were staged from hatching and raised at a density of 50 per vial at 25°C. Third instar larvae (110 h after egg deposition, AED) were heat shocked at 37°C for 2 h, and larvae were collected 7 h after heat shock (~120 h AED). Total RNA was isolated using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen) as described by manufacturer followed by RNeasy (Qiagen) clear up. cRNA targets were generated using a standard amino-allyl labeling protocol, where 30 µg each of "experimental" (dMyc;GFP: hs-FLP122; Act-GAL4, UAS-GFP; UAS-dMyc) and "reference" (GFP only :ywhs-FLP122; Act-GAL4, UAS-GFP; +) total RNAs were coupled to either Cy3 or Cy5 fluorophores. Paired labeled targets were processed on microarrays using protocols described elsewhere (Fazzio et al. 2001 ). Posthybridized arrays were scanned using a GenePix 4000 scanner (Axon Instruments). Data were generated from five independent replicates (two with one dye orientation and three with the reversed dye orientation) at 7h and 14h

Project description:Chronic constant hypoxia (CCH), such as in pulmonary diseases or high altitude, and chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), such as in sleep apnea, can lead to major changes in the heart. The molecular mechanisms underlying these cardiac alterations are not well understood. We hypothesized that analysis on the changes in gene expression could help to delineate such mechanisms. In addition, the differences that can be anticipated between CCH and CIH could be potentially dissected. Current study used CCH and CIH mouse models combined with cDNA microarrays to determine the changes of gene expression in CCH or CIH mice heart.
