Project description:We identified a congenic mouse with an introgressed region from the A/J donor inbred strain on an inbred C57BL/6J background that showed a reduced locomotor stimulant response to methamphetamine. We conducted microarray analysis of the striatum from drug-naive female and male mice that were 6-9 weeks old. The congenic region is on chromosome 11 and spans approximately 84-96 Mb. There were two groups of mice used in the analysis: B6 control mice versus congenic mice. Congenic mice were collapsed across heterozygous and homozygous genotypes. All mice are on a C57BL/6J background. Congenic mice differ only on chromosome 11 where they contain the introgressed A/J alleles from 84-96 Mb.

Project description:Previous studies of congenic lines of C57BL/6J-DBA/2J mice compared to C57BL/6 mice revealed a 0.23 QTL for sensitivity to methamphetamine on chromosome 11, which contains two protein coding genes, Rufy1 and Hnrnph1. Subsequent transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs)-mediated introduction of frameshift deletions in the first coding exon of one copy of Hnrnph1 of C57BL/6J mice, revealed comparable association to phenotype. Analysis of the transcriptome and splicesome between these Hnrnph1 heterozygous knockouts and C57BL/6J mice revealed genome-wide differentially expression and exon usage of more than 1000 genes in either.

Project description:OBJECTIVE: To understand the molecular pathways underlying the cardiac preconditioning effect of short-term caloric restriction (CR). BACKGROUND: Lifelong CR has been suggested to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease through a variety of mechanisms. However, prolonged adherence to a CR life-style is difficult. Here we show how short-term CR protects the mouse heart from ischemia. METHODS: Male 10-12 wk old C57bl/6 mice were randomly assigned to an ad libitum (AL) diet with free access to regular chow, or CR, receiving 30% less food over a period of 7 days (d), prior to myocardial infarction (MI) via permanent coronary ligation. Prior to MI (d8), the left ventricles (LV) of AL and CR mice were collected for Western blot, DNA and microRNA (miR) analyses. In separate groups, infarct size, cardiac hemodynamics and protein abundance of caspase 3 was measured at d2 post-MI. RESULTS: This short-term model of CR was associated with cardio-protection, as evidenced by decreased infarct size (18.5±2.4% vs. 26.6±1.7%, N=10/group; P=0.01). cDNA and miR profiles pre-MI (N=5/group) identified genes modulated by short-term CR to be associated with circadian clock, oxidative stress, immune function, apoptosis, metabolism, angiogenesis, cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix (ECM). Western blots pre-MI revealed CR-associated increases in phosphorylated Akt and GSK3ß, reduced levels of phosphorylated AMPK and mitochondrial related proteins PGC-1?, cytochrome C and cyclooxygenase (COX) IV, with no differences in the levels of phosphorylated eNOS or MAPK (ERK1/2; p38). CONCLUSIONS: Short-term CR for only 7d represents a preconditioning strategy that limits infarct size. It is associated with a unique gene and miR signature, including the activation of specific pro-survival kinases. These findings may have implications for therapeutic use of short-term CR. . Male 12 wk-old C57Bl/6 mice were obtained from Charles River (Montreal, PQ, Canada) and maintained for at least 2 weeks before experimentation. Animals were randomly assigned to AL, CR and Lira groups with no initial differences in body weights. AL group mice were allowed ad libitum diet. Lira group mice were injected with Liraglutide (Glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist) at a dose of 200 µg/Kg i.p., twice daily for 7 days which is a mild weight-loss inducing dose and had access to ad libitum food and water. CR group mice were put on a Caloric restriction diet (30% less than normal ad libitum caloric intake) for 7 days to induce weight loss comparable to Lira group mice. Mice for CR and AL were individually caged and their food intake was measured everyday between 10-11 am for 1 week to calculate the average daily food intake. CR mice were fed 30% less than the calculated mean daily AL food consumption. CR cages were inspected daily for any remaining food, and transferred to a new cage every day. For CR group, pre-weighed mouse chow pellets were placed in cages between 10-11 am every day. Body weights were recorded between 10-11 am before and after the 7 day study period. For pre-ischemic assessments, animals (n=5/group/assessment) were sacrificed on day-8 (pre-MI), hearts were immediately extracted, washed in sterile phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), with LV free walls dissected, snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80o C.

Project description:The goal of this experiment was to study the alterations that occur in the adipose tissue of mice during a T. brucei infection. Gonadal adipose tissue from C57BL/6J mice infected with T. brucei AnTat 1.1E 90-13 parasites was collected at day 0 and 26 post-infection. Total RNA was extracted from 3 samples of non-infected adipose tissue and 2 samples of adipose tissue on day 26 post-infection. Day 6 post-infection adipose tissue samples (n=3) were already published (E-MTAB-4061).

Project description:The BcA86 strain is a unique recombinant congenic strain created from parental strains A/J and C57BL/6J. Naive mice from the BcA86 strain have a lung responsiveness phenotype resembling mice from airway hyperresponsive strain A/J. However, majority of the BcA86 genome is from the hyporesponsive strain C57BL/6J. Our goal was to identify the genomic regions that are associated with this BcA86 phenotype. Using F2 mice generated from BcA86 backcrossed to C57BL/6J, we identified a QTL for airway hyperresponsiveness on mouse chromosome 12. We validated the importance of mouse chromosome 12 in airway responsiveness using a chromosome 12 substitution strain (CSS12) which contains A/J chromosome 12 on a C57BL/6J background. The CSS12 strain also had a lung responsiveness phenotype similar to A/J. We selected genes within our QTL as candidates for airway hyperresponsiveness if they contained a deleterious coding variant (based on PROVEAN analysis) or if they were differently expressed between hyperresponsive (A/J, BcA86, CSS12) and hyporesponsive (C57BL/6J) strains.

Project description:Histone acetylation and other modifications of the chromatin are important regulators of gene expression and, consequently, may contribute to drug-induced behaviors and neuroplasticity. Previous studies have shown that a reduction on histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity results on the enhancement of some psychostimulant-induced behaviors. In the present study, we extend those seminal findings by showing that the administration of the HDAC inhibitor sodium butyrate enhances morphine-induced locomotor sensitization and conditioned place preference. In contrast, this compound has no effects on the development of morphine tolerance and dependence. Similar effects were observed for cocaine and ethanol-induced behaviors. These behavioral changes were accompanied by a selective boosting of a component of the transcriptional program activated by chronic morphine administration that included circadian clock genes and other genes relevant in addictive behavior. Our results support an specific role for histone acetylation and the epigenetic modulation of transcription at a reduced number of biologically relevant loci on non-homeostatic, long lasting, drug-induced behavioral plasticity. To further investigate the molecular bases of sodium butyrate action on long-lasting behavioral responses to morphine, we screened for potential substrates of their interaction by performing a genome-wide comparison of the striatal transcriptome after chronic administration of morphine in the absence or presence of sodium butyrate. Striatal tissue was dissected from two months-old Swiss-Albino male mice subjected to behavioral sensitization. Behavioural sensitization: Locomotor sensitization induced by morphine was evaluated using a protocol divided into two phases: induction and challenge. The induction phase involved six trials on alternate days, one trial per day. On each one of these trials, mice received and injection of saline or sodium butyrate (300 mg/kg) immediatedly followed by a second injection of morphine (20 mg/kg). The challenge phases consisted of a single trial conducted 7 days after the last test of the induction phase. In this case, all animals received a single injection of morphine (20 mg/kg). Striatal RNA was extracted 1h after the morphine challenge in groups of four animals that received either saline (N=6) or morphine (N=3), or the sodium butyrate-morphine (N=3) co-treatment during the sensitization induction phase.
