Transcription profiling of mouse protocadherin 12 knockout

ABSTRACT: Protocadherin 12 (Pcdh12) is a transmembrane adhesive protein with homophilic adhesive properties and expressed in endothelial cells, the glycogen trophoblast cells of the placenta, and the mesangial cells of kidney glomeruli. Pcdh12-deficient mice are alive although they show alterations in placenta development. To reveal Pcdh12-associated pathways, 45,000 - Affymetrix probe arrays were used on Pcdh12 knockout and control placentas. Experiment Overall Design: To identify genes whos expression was modified by Pcdh12 deficiency, we examined global gene expression profiles of whole E12.5 knockout placentas (Pcdh12 -l-) and their wild-type (WT â Pcdh12+l+ ) littermates, using the Affymetrix Murine Genome 430 2.0 microarrays. Gestation day 12 was chosen as it is the period at which placentas already formed distinct layers, but organogenesis is still very active. Total RNA was extracted from five Pcdh12 knockout embryos and five normal placentas. RNA were tested for integrity on Agilent 2100 BioAnalyzer, prior to cRNA synthesis and chip hybridization (performed by the Institute of Genetics and Molecular and Cellular Biology, Strasbourg, France).

Project description:Background: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are an important class of pervasive genes involved in a variety of biological functions. They are aberrantly expressed in many types of diseases. We want to study the lncRNAs profiles in preeclampsia. Preeclampsia has been observed in patients with molar pregnancy where a fetus is absent demonstrating that the placenta is sufficient to cause the condition. So we analyze the lncRNAs profiles in preeclampsia placentas. In this study, we described the lncRNAs profiles in 6 preeclampsia placentas (T) and 5 matched normal pregnancy placentas (N) tissues by microarray. Methodology/Principal Findings: With abundant and varied probes accounting 33,045 LncRNAs in our microarray, the number of lncRNAs that expressed at a certain level could be detected is 28,443. From the data we found there were 738 lncRNAs that differentially expressed (M-bM-^IM-%1.5 fold-change) among preeclampsia placentas compared with matched controls. Up to 18,063 coding transcripts could be detected in placenta samples through 30,215 coding transcripts probes. Coding-non-coding gene co-expression networks (CNC network) were constructed based on the correlation analysis between the differential expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs. According to the GO-Pathway analysis of differential expressed lncRNAs/mRNAs, we choose three lncRNAs to analyze the relationship between lncRNAs and preeclampsia. LOC391533, LOC284100, CEACAMP8 were evaluated by qPCR in 40 of preeclampsia placentas and 40 of controls. The results showed three lncRNAs were aberrantly expressed in preeclampsia placentas compared with controls. Conclusions/Significance: Our study is the first one to determine genome-wide lncRNAs expression patterns in preeclampsia placenta by microarray. The results displayed that clusters of lncRNAs were aberrantly expressed in preeclampsia placenta compared with controls, which revealed that lncRNAs differentially expressed in preeclampsia placenta may exert a partial or key role in preeclampsia development. Misregulation of LOC391533, LOC284100, CEACAMP8 might be associated with preeclampsia. Taken together, this study may provide potential targets for future treatment of preeclampsia and novel insights into preeclampsia biology.
