Project description:The functional balance between brown adipose tissue (BAT) and white adipose tissue (WAT) is important for metabolic homeostasis. We compared the effects of fasting on the gene expression profiles in BAT, WAT and liver, using DNA microarray analysis. Tissues were obtained from rats that had been fed or fasted for 24 h. Taking the false discovery rate (FDR) into account, we extracted the top 1,000 genes that were expressed differentially between fed and fasted rats. In all three tissues, Gene Ontology analysis revealed marked changes in the expression of âmetabolismâ category genes and a hypergeometric test demonstrated that within this category, lipid and protein biosynthesis-related genes were down-regulated. These findings indicate simultaneous down-regulation of genes involved in energy-consuming pathways in the BAT, WAT and liver of fasted rats. In the BAT of fasted rats, there was marked up-regulation of genes in the âprotein ubiquitinationâ category, suggesting that the ubiquitin-proteasome system is involved in saving energy as an adaptation to food shortage. Experiment Overall Design: Rats (7-week-old) were given a commercial diet between 10:00 and 16:00 for 7 days. At 10:00 on day 8, they were divided into two groups that comprised animals of similar body weights. One group continued to be fed as described above (fed group, n=4 for array analysis), whereas the other group were not fed (fasted group, n=4 for array analysis). Both groups received water ad libitum. At 16:00 on day 8, the liver, interscapular BAT and perinephrial WAT were excised, and analyzed for fasting effect.

Project description:Although some phospholipase A2 forms, the initiator of the arachidonic acid cascade, contribute to carcinogenesis of many organs, the phospholipase A2 group IVc (Pla2g4c) remains to be clarified. When Pla2g4c expression in Rat mammary tumor-1 E4 (RMT-1) cells was knocked down by using specific siRNAs, cell counts were found to decrease to 40 % of the number of control and apoptotic cells were increased. Whole transcript profiling revealed the up-regulation of lipocalin 2 and down-regulation of epithelical marker genes. The expression of Pla2g4c was blocked by transient transfection with Pla2g4c siRNA in RMT-1 cells.

Project description:Recent evidence has suggested that fluoxetine, a serotonin-reuptake inhibitor and emerging environmental contaminant, can have non-targeted effects on metabolism in fish exposed to this waterborne pollutant. Using the highest, environmentally relevant, detectable level of fluoxetine (540 ng/L) we examined the impact of fluoxetine on the miRNA profile in the liver of zebrafish that were both fed and fasted for a period of 7 days. These results were further compared to the miRNA profile of zebrafish fasted and fed for 7 days, which were not exposed to fluoxetine. Results indicated that several miRNA that were involved with downregulating genes/pathways in response to fasting were also upregulated in fish exposed to fluoxetine, irrespective to fasting or feeding. These results suggest fluoxetine can have non-targeted effects on metabolic pathways mediated through miRNA expression. Furthermore, specific miRNA (dre-let-7d & dre-miR-140-5p) were found to target the catalytic subunit (AMPKa1 & AMPKa2, respectively) of AMP-Kinase, a master regulator of metabolism. Using predictive software and qPCR validation, combined with the expression profile of these two miRNA, we were able to establish a significant relationship between the expression of these specific miRNA to the downregulation of AMPKa subunit under the influence of 540 ng/L fluoxetine. Adult, female zebrafish were either fed or fasted for 7 days with and without the presense of 540 ng/L fluoxetine, and livers extracted and miRNA purified for miRNA microaary experiment.

Project description:To further development of our gene expression approach to lithium pharmacodynamics, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to distinguish lithium pharmacodynamics across an exposure range relevant for medical decision-making in lithium therapy. 8 healthy male subjects participated in this study. Lithium was prescribed for 2 weeks, enough to reach a therapeutic serum concentration (0.6-1.0mM). Leukocyte counts and serum lithium concentrations were determined at baseline (before medication), after 1 week and 2 weeks medication and post-2-weeks (2 weeks after stopping medication). Gene expression profiling was performed at each time point using Agilent G4112F Whole Human Genome arrays containing approximately 44,000 probe sets. Some of the candidate gene expressions were also determined by real-time PCR. Lithium-induced gene expression in human blood was measured at baseline, after 1 week and 2 weeks of treatment, and after 2 weeks after stopping medication. 4 independent experiments were performed (baseline, 1wk, 2wk, after 2wk) using mixed samples from each donor.

Project description:In this study, we demonstrate that insulin is produced not only in the mammalian pancreas but also in adult neuronal cells derived from hippocampus and olfactory bulb. Paracrine Wnt3 plays an essential role in promoting the active expression of insulin in both hippocampus and olfactory bulb-derived neural stem cells. Our analysis indicates that the balance between Wnt3, which triggers the expression of insulin via NeuroD1 transcription factor, and IGFBP-4, which inhibits the original Wnt3 action, is regulated depending on the diabetic status. We also show that adult neural progenitors derived from diabetic animals retain the ability to give rise to insulin-producing cells and that grafting neuronal progenitors into the pancreas of diabetic animals reduces glucose levels. This study provides an example of a simple and direct use of adult stem cells from one organ to another, without introducing additional inductive genes.

Total four different samples, gene expressions in hippocampal derived neural stem cells (HPC NSC), that in Olfactory bulb-derived neural stem cells (OB NSC), that in neurons derived from the HPC NSCs (HPC Neu) and that in neurons derived from the OB NSCs (OB Neu) were independently analyzed. Three independent experiments were performed to prepare each cell sample, and the extracted total RNAs from each cell source were mixed to apply following microarray analysis (Four independent RNA sample; HPC NSC, OB NSC, HPC Neu and OB Neu).

Project description:To further development of our gene expression approach to assess the effects of manufactured nanomaterials at the molecular level, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to distinguish characterization of physico-chemical properties of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Three kinds of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), CNT-1, CNT-2 or CNT-3 induced gene expression in human alveolar epithelial cell lines were measured at 24 and 48 hours exposure to doses of 90.8μg/mL (CNT-1), 109.0μg/mL (CNT-2), and 77.0μg/mL (CNT-2). Three independent experiments were performed at each time (24 or 48 hours) using different untreated control for each experiment (n=4).

Project description:Decay of mRNAs initiates with shortening of the poly(A) tail. Although the CCR4-NOT complex participates in deadenylation, how it becomes activates remain obscure. We show that complete deficiency in CNOT3, subunit 3 of this complex, is lethal in mice, but that heterozygotes survive as lean mice with hepatic and adipose tissues containing reduced lipid levels. Cnot3+/- mice have enhanced metabolic rates and remain lean on high-fat diets. We further provide evidence suggesting that CNOT3, by changing its level in response to feeding conditions, affects the activity of the CCR4-NOT deadenylase against poly(A) tails of specific mRNAs coding for proteins involved in metabolism of carbohydrates and fats. Because the levels of CNOT3 protein were decreased under fasting conditions and increased upon refeeding and because CNOT3 could be a positive regulator of the CCR4-NOT deadenylase, we hypothesized that the levels of CCR4-NOT target mRNAs would be lower in fed mice than in fasted mice. We compared the gene expression profiles of fed and fasted wild-type mice. Microarray analysis revealed that approximately 1,200 mRNA transcripts were down-regulated in the livers of fed mice. Of these mRNAs, 68 corresponded to the genes up-regulated in the livers of Cnot3+/- mice and fasted wild-type mice. A large number of the 68 identified genes encoded proteins involved in metabolism, especially lipid metabolism and growth. The livers were isolated from 8-week-old fed wild-type, fasted wild-type and fasted Cnot3+/- mice (n = 2 for each genotype).

Project description:The reprogramming of human fibroblasts to generate induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) has been achieved through the expression of only a few exotic factors1-8, which is morphologically and molecularly verified in outer cellular states by characteristic markers, due to the remodeling of the somatic cell transcription programs in inner cellular states to the ES-like condition. Transcription factor-induced reprogramming to self-renewal and pluripotency raises the question as to how the exotic factors act to bring about these changes in the two cellular states9-11. Here, we applied RNA profiling to uncover gene expression changes and glycan profiling12 to survey structural changes in glycans, to compare hiPSCs and parental somatic cells, in total 51 cells, which were originally cultured and established, and the changes were analyzed by the combination of standard statistical techniques and a network approach13. We fist found a gene expression signature of 2502 genes with significant difference between iPSCs and SCs, and by the following network analysis by considering the expression signature, we found a network signature of 28 regulatory networks of 76 genes, which were related to the glycan biosynthetic pathways including 3 glycosyltransferase, in addition to well known signal pathways and cell-cell interaction pathways. Concomitantly, we found a glycan signature of six glycan structures characterized 16 lectins on lectin microarray by the correspondence with 12 glycosyltransferases in expression signature. In particular, the correspondence detected between the three expression signatures revealed 14 candidate glycosyltransferase, which are responsible for glycan transfer related to known epitopes for the differentiation such as SSEA epitope family in glycan biosynthesis pathway, based on characteristic changes in the cellular surface states of the hiPSCs. This sheds new light on a possible linkage between the inner and outer cellular states for reprogramming to self-renewal and pluripotency in hiPSC. Gene expressions in human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells and the provenance somatic cells . iPS cells were induced from four different somatic cells by infection of the retroviral vectors pMXs encoding OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC, simultaneously.
