Comparative global gene expression profiling of mice liver and spleen fed with nucleoprotein (NP) diets

ABSTRACT: A diet rich in nucleic acids and protamin protein, termed as nucleoprotein was used for the study. Mice were fed with NP diets for 4 weeks followed by removal of the liver and spleen. Total RNA extracted from livers and spleens was pooled in each group (low NP or LNP-control, and 1.2% NP-treatment, diets), prior to DNA microarray analysis (Agilent mouse whole genome 4 x 44K). Results revealed 1373 & 3386 up (>1.5 fold)- and down (<0.75 fold)-regulated genes in the liver, and 252 & 1838 up- and down-regulated genes in the spleen, respectively following 1.2%NP diet. Analysis of genes related to NP diets will be discussed. To investigate the effect of NP, we added S-nuclegen® at a concentration of 1.2% into CLEA basic purified diet (CLEA JAPAN, Inc., Tokyo, Japan) known to include nucleic aci
