Project description:2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT), a nitroaromatic used in industrial and explosive manufacturing processes, is known to contaminate artillery ranges, demilitarization areas and munitions manufacturing facilities. Previous transcriptomic and lipidomic studies identified energy metabolism as a principle biochemical process affected by 2,4-DNT where up-stream effects on PPAR? signaling were hypothesized as themolecular initiating event for these effects. Here, the validity of this hypothetical adverse outcome pathway (AOP) was assessed by testing the hypothesis that 2,4-DNT-induced perturbations in PPAR? signaling and resultant downstream deficits in energy metabolism, especially from lipids, would result in organism-level impacts on exercise endurance. PPAR? knock-out (-/-) and wild-type (WT) mice were exposed for 14 days to vehicle or 2,4-DNT at a dose (134 mg/kg/day) that did not exhibit overt systemic toxicity. Mice performed an exercise challenge (forced swim) 1 day after the last dose. 2,4-DNT decreased swim times in WT and PPAR? (-/-) mice, but the effect was significantly less in PPAR? (-/-) mice indicating the critical of PPAR? in mediating 2,4-DNT-induced energy metabolism deficits. 2,4-DNT caused down-regulation of transcripts involved in fatty acid metabolism, gluconeogenesis, triacylglycerol catabolism, and the pentose phosphate pathway, and 2,4-DNT treated wild-type mice had decreased serum trigylcerides and increased serum glucose versus 2,4-DNT treated PPAR? (-/-) mice. Our results support the hypothesis that 2,4-DNT perturbs PPAR? signaling as a molecular initiating event therefore impacting energy metabolism, especially lipid metabolism, producing reduced exercise endurance in mice. RNA was isolated from liver tissue of vehicle or 2,4-DNT treated wild-type or PPAR? (-/-) mice (n=6) and RT-PCR performed to analyze genes involved in fatty acid metabolism

Project description:2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT), a nitroaromatic used in industrial and explosive manufacturing processes, is known to contaminate artillery ranges, demilitarization areas and munitions manufacturing facilities. Previous transcriptomic and lipidomic studies identified energy metabolism as a principle biochemical process affected by 2,4-DNT where up-stream effects on PPARα signaling were hypothesized as themolecular initiating event for these effects. Here, the validity of this hypothetical adverse outcome pathway (AOP) was assessed by testing the hypothesis that 2,4-DNT-induced perturbations in PPARα signaling and resultant downstream deficits in energy metabolism, especially from lipids, would result in organism-level impacts on exercise endurance. PPARα knock-out (-/-) and wild-type (WT) mice were exposed for 14 days to vehicle or 2,4-DNT at a dose (134 mg/kg/day) that did not exhibit overt systemic toxicity.

Project description:Changes of Cytokines and chemokines profiles were sucessfully determined between mouse non-treated vs LPS treated pregnant uteri using Qiagen PCR array. Pregnant mouse (FVB strain E8.5-9.5) were treated with LPS(2.5ug/mouse) or saline as control. 8h- or 16-h later, uteri tissues (N=3) were collected.

Project description:Ischemic preconditioning (4 cycles of 5 min ischemia and 5 min reperfusion) with a final reperfusion time of 120 minutes was performed in C57BL/6N (The Jackson Laboratory) or Per2-/- mice. Heart tissue was snap-frozen with clamps pre-cooled to the temperature of liquid nitrogen. Micro RNA was isolated with Trizol (Invitrogen) and purified using RT2 qPCR-Grade miRNA Isolation Kit (SABiosciences-Qiagen). cDNA template was generated using RT2 miRNA First Strand Kit (SABiosciences-Qiagen). miRNA expression was performed using RT2 miRNA PCR Array Mouse miFinder (SABiosciences-Qiagen).

Project description:Psoriasis patients exhibit an increased risk of death by cardiovascular disease (CVD) and have elevated levels of circulating intermediate (CD14++CD16+) monocytes. This elevation could represent evidence of monocyte dysfunction in psoriasis patients at risk of CVD, as increases in circulating CD14++CD16+ monocytes are predictive of myocardial infarction and death. An elevation in the CD14++CD16+ cell population has been previously reported in patients with psoriatic disease, which has been confirmed in the cohort of our human psoriasis patients. CD16 expression was induced in CD14++CD16neg classical monocytes following plastic adhesion, which also elicited enhanced β2 but not β1 integrin surface expression, suggesting increased adhesive capacity. Indeed, we found that psoriasis patients have increased monocyte aggregation among circulating PBMCs which is recapitulated in the KC-Tie2 murine model of psoriasis. Visualization of human monocyte aggregates using imaging cytometry revealed that classical CD14++CD16neg monocytes are the predominant cell type participating in these aggregate pairs. Many of these pairs also included CD16+ monocytes, which could account for apparent elevations of intermediate monocytes. Additionally, intermediate monocytes and monocyte aggregates were the predominant cell type to adhere to TNF-α and IL-17A-stimulated dermal endothelium. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) demonstrated that monocyte aggregates have a distinct transcriptional profile from singlet monocytes and monocytes following plastic adhesion, suggesting that circulating monocyte responses to aggregation are not fully accounted for by homotypic adhesion, and that further factors influence their functionality. qRT-PCR Gene Expression Profiling - 30 Samples Analyzed, 10 biological replicates, 10 Control Samples, 20 Test Samples
