Transcription profiling of mouse brain to identify age-related transcriptional changes and the effect of dietary supplementation of vitamin E

ABSTRACT: We established the transcriptional profile of brain aging and examine the global effects of vitamin E supplementation on age-related alterations in expression in the aged mouse brain. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression profiles were obtained from the neocortex tissues of 5-month-old controls, 30-month-old controls and 30-month old B6C3F1 mice with middle age-onset supplementation of alpha-tocopherol or a mixture of alpha and gamma-tocopherol (500mg/kg of each tocopherol).

Project description:The MicroArray Quality Control (MAQC) project was initiated to address these concerns, as well as other performance and analysis issues. We demonstrate the consistency of results within a platform across test sites as well as the high level of cross-platform concordance in terms of genes identified as differentially expressed. The MAQC study provides a rich resource that will help build consensus on the use of microarrays in research, clinical and regulatory settings. Manuscripts related to the MAQC project have been published in Nature Biotechnology, 24(9), September, 2006. More information about the MAQC project can be found at http://edkb.fda.gov/MAQC/.<br><br>Expression data from two distinct reference RNA samples (A and B) in four titration pools were generated at multiple test sites using a variety of microarray-based and alternative technology platforms. Sample A = Stratagene Universal Human Reference RNA (UHRR, Catalog #740000), Sample B = Ambion Human Brain Reference RNA (HBRR, Catalog #6050), Sample C = Samples A and B mixed at 75%:25% ratio (A:B); and Sample D = Samples A and B mixed at 25%:75% ratio (A:B). In general, each microarray platform was tested at three sites and each sample was tested in five replicates at each test site. Samples (hybridizations) were named according to the following convention: Platform_Testsite_SampleRelicate. For example, AFX_2_B1 represents the hybridization (array) from platform AFX processed by test site 2 for the first replicate of sample B. Assignment of platform code: ABI = Applied Biosystems (microarray); AFX = Affymetrix; AG1 = Agilent one-color; AGL = Agilent two-color; GEH = GE Healthcare; ILM = Illumina; NCI = NCI two-color (Operon oligos); EPP = Eppendorf; TAQ = TaqMan (Applied Biosystems); QGN = QuantiGene (Panomics); GEX = StaRT-PCR (Gene Express); H25K = TeleChem two-color; H25K1 = TeleChem one-color; BIO = CapitalBio two-color (Operon oligos); BIO1 = CapitalBio one-color (Operon oligos); OPN = Operon two-color (Operon oligos); NMC = Norwegian Microarray Consortium two-color (Operon oligos).
