Project description:cDNA macroarray expression profiling was carried out in poplar roots in order to identify genes regulated in response to exposition to copper stress. For this purpose, plants of a Populus deltoides clone grown in a hydroponic system during four weeks were incubated in a nutrient solution (Hoagland's modiefied salt, ¼ strength) supplemented with copper (0 µM (control), 30 µM and 60 µM). Roots were sampled at 12 and 24 h after exposition in a time-course experiment.

Project description:Trout spermatogenesis proceeds seasonally in a way that all morphological and cellular events tend to be synchronized. We thus used gonads at key stages of the male reproductive cycle together with isolated germ cell populations to study the changes in gene expression underlying testis development. Statistical analysis followed by clustering of expression profiles allowed the discrimination of sequential events of gene activation or repression during testis development and/or throughout the germline. 38 samples covering 6 developmental stages (as defined in Gomez et al. 1998 Biol. Reprod. 58, 483-491) and 3 isolated germ cell populations were analysed. This included: - Testes at early stages containing slowly-dividing type A spermatogonia (Stage_I, n=5) or growing numbers of actively-dividing type B spermatogonia (Stages_IIa, n= 4; Stage_IIb, n= 4) - Maturing testes containing in addition large numbers of meiotic spermatocytes (Stage_IIIb, n=3) and post-meiotic spermatids (Stage_V, n=4) - Spawning testes containing essentially mature spermatozoa (Stage_VIII, n=3) - Fractions of isolated germ cells enriched in spermatogonia (Spermatogonia, N=6), spermatocytes (Spermatocyte, N=6) and spermatids (Spermatid, N=3).

Project description:Background - Mammalians gamete production takes place in the testis but when they exit this organ, although spermatozoa have a specialized and distinct morphology, they are immotile and infertile. It is only after their travel in the epididymis that sperm acquire their motility and fertility. Epididymis can be divided in three gross morphological regions, head (caput), body (corpus) and tail (cauda), containing a long and unique convoluted tubule connecting the testis to the vas deferens. Results - In this study, the testis, the efferent ducts (vas efferens, VE), nine distinct successive epididymal segments and the deferent duct (vas deferens, VD) of four adult boars of known fertility were isolated and their mRNA extracted. The gene expression of each of these samples was analyzed using a pig generic 9K nylon microarray (AGENAE program; GEO accession number: GPL3729) spotted with 8931 clones derived from normalized cDNA banks from different pig tissues including testis and epididymis. Differentially expressed transcripts were obtained with moderated t-tests and F-tests and two data clustering algorithms based either on partitioning around medoïds (top down PAM) or hierarchical clustering (bottom up HCL) were combined for class discovery and gene expression analysis. Tissue samples analysis defined seven transcriptomic units: testis, vas efferens and five epididymal transcriptomic units. Meanwhile transcripts formed only four clusters related to the tissues. We have then used a specific statistical method to sort out genes specifically overexpressed (markers) in testis, VE or in each of the five transcriptomic units of the epididymis (including VD). Among these markers some well-known epididymal genes were retrieved while some were new genes or genes not yet reported in these boar tissues. The specific regional expression of some of these genes was further validated by PCR and Q-PCR. We also searched for specific pathways and functions using available gene ontology information. Conclusions - This study fulfilled the gap between those done in rodents and human, and provides tools that will be useful for further studies on the biochemical processes responsible for the formation and maintain of the epididymal regionalization and the development of a fertile spermatozoa.

Project description:Thermomacidophilic archaea, such as Metallosphaera sedula, are lithoautotrophs that occupy metal-rich environments. In previous studies, a M. sedula mutant lacking the primary copper efflux transporter, CopA, became copper sensitive. In contrast, the basis for supra-normal copper resistance remained unclear in the spontaneous M. sedula mutant, CuR1. Here, transcriptomic analysis of copper-shocked cultures indicated that CuR1 had a unique regulatory response to metal challenge corresponding to up-regulation of 55 genes. Genome re-sequencing identified 17 confirmed mutations unique to CuR1 that were likely to change gene function. Of these, 12 mapped to genes with annotated function associated with transcription, metabolism or transport. These mutations included 7 non-synonymous substitutions, 4 insertions and 1 deletion. One of the insertion mutations mapped to pseudogene, Msed_1517, and extended its reading frame an additional 209 amino acids. The extended mutant allele was identified as a homolog of Pho4, a family of phosphate symporters that include the bacterial PitA proteins. Orthologs of this allele were apparent in related extremely thermoacidophilic species, suggesting M. sedula was naturally lacking this gene. Phosphate transport studies combined with physiologic analysis demonstrated M. sedula PitA was a low affinity high velocity secondary transporter implicated in copper resistance and arsenate sensitivity. Genetic analysis demonstrated spontaneous arsenate resistant mutants derived from CuR1 all underwent mutation in pitA and non-selectively became copper resistant. Taken together, these results point to archaeal PitA as a key requirement for the increased metal resistance of strain CuR1 and its accelerated capacity for copper bioleaching. The study comprises 5 samples, described in detail below. WT_CuR1: Differential transcriptional response of Metallosphaera sedula DSM 5348, WT, to the supra-normal copper resistant spontaneous Metallosphaera sedula mutant, CuR1 under normal growth conditions. This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of WT cells compared with CuR1 cells at mid log phase. WT-15_CuR1-15: Differential transcription of Metallosphaera cells under sub-inhibitory copper challenge (2.0 mM). This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Metallosphaera sedula WT and CuR1 15 minutes post copper challenge. The copper cultures were harvested 15 minutes after the shock. WT-60_CuR1-60: Differential transcription of Metallosphaera cells under sub-inhibitory copper challenge (2.0 mM). This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Metallosphaera sedula WT and CuR1 60 minutes post copper challenge. The copper cultures were harvested 60 minutes after the shock. WT-15_WT-60: Differential transcription of Metallosphaera cells under sub-inhibitory copper challenge (2.0 mM). This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Metallosphaera sedula WT 15 and 60 minutes post copper challenge. The copper cultures were harvested 15 and 60 minutes after the shock, respectively. CuR1-15_CuR1-60: Differential transcription of Metallosphaera cells under sub-inhibitory copper challenge (2.0 mM). This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Metallosphaera sedula CuR1 15 and 60 minutes post copper challenge.

Project description:Glycine betaine (GB) is a potent osmoprotectant for salt stressed Bacillus subtilis cells, which possess three high-affinity uptake systems for GB. OpuA is the dominant transporter for this compatible solute. Northern blot analysis, primer extension experiments and opuA-treA reporter gene fusion studies demonstrated that opuA expression is strongly induced at high osmolality from a single SigA-type promoter. Promoter mutations that improve the match of the opuA promoter to the consensus sequence substantially increase basal-level expression but reduce inducibility by high salinity. Expression of opuA is sensitively controlled by GB, which causes significant repression of opuA transcription at low and high salinity. GB influences the kinetics as well as the final level of high salinity induction of opuA in a concentration-dependent fashion. The repressing effect of GB on opuA transcription requires the intracellular presence of GB, regardless whether it is taken up via OpuA or other transporters or synthesized from choline. Genome-wide transcriptional profiling of salt-stressed B. subtilis cells demonstrated that the repressive effect of GB targets only a subset of high-salinity induced genes. This group of GB-responsive genes comprises in essence the full set of genes with demonstrated functions in either the uptake or synthesis of compatible solutes. Four different samples (untreated, GB, NaCl, and GB + NaCl treated) were analyzed and each sample was hybridized in triplicate.

Project description:Role of PPARalpha in the effects of DEHP on the hepatic expression of a selection of mouse genes related to nuclear receptor signaling. Di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP), a widely used plasticizer, is detected in consumerâs body fluids. Contamination occurs through environmental and food chain sources. In mouse liver, DEHP activates the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) and regulates the expression of its target genes. Several in vitro investigations support the simultaneous recruitment of additional nuclear receptor pathways. We investigated, in vivo, the hepatic impact of low doses of DEHP on PPARalpha activation, and the putative activation of additional signalling pathways. Wild-type and PPARalpha-deficient mice were exposed to different doses of DEHP. Gene expression profiling delineated the role of PPARalpha and revealed a PPARalpha-independent regulation of several prototypic Constitutive Androstane Receptor (CAR) target genes. This finding demonstrates that CAR also represents a transcriptional regulator sensitive to phthalates. CAR-mediated effects of DEHP provide a new rationale for most endpoints of phthalates toxicity described previously, including endocrine disruption, hepatocarcinogenesis and the metabolic syndrome. Keywords: Treatment effect One-color macroarrays, 6 experimental conditions: Wild type (WT) and PPARalpha-deficient mice (PPAR) were treated with vehicle (Ctrl) or with di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP) at 20 mg/kg/day (D20) or 200 mg/kg/day (D200) for 21 days, Biological replicates: 10 for each group, One replicate per array

Project description:Phthalates are industrial additives widely used as plasticizers. In addition to deleterious effects on male genital development, population studies have documented correlations between phthalates exposure and impacts on reproductive tract development and on the metabolic syndrome in male adults. In this study we investigated potential mechanisms underlying the impact of di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP) on adult mouse liver in vivo. A parallel analysis of hepatic transcript and metabolic profiles from adult mice exposed to varying DEHP doses was performed. Hepatic genes modulated by DEHP are predominantly PPARα targets. However, the induction of prototypic cytochrome P450 genes strongly supports the activation of additional NR pathways, including Constitutive Androstane Receptor (CAR). Integration of transcriptomic and metabonomic profiles revealed a correlation between the impacts of DEHP on genes and metabolites related to heme synthesis and on the Rev-erbα pathway that senses endogenous heme level. Keywords: Treatment effect One-color macroarrays, 4 experimental conditions: Control mice (vehicle treated), mice treated with di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP) at 30 mg/kg/day (D30), 180 mg/kg/day (D180) or 1100 mg/kg/day (D1100) for 14 days, Biological replicates: 6 controls, 4 D30, 4 D180, 5 D1100, One replicate per array

Project description:Flaxseed (FS), a nutritional supplement consisting mainly of omega-3 fatty acids and lignan phenolics, has potent anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic and antioxidant properties. We have shown that dietary FS supplementation ameliorates oxidative stress and inflammation in experimental models of acute and chronic lung injury in mice resulting from diverse toxicants. The development of lung tissue damage in response to direct or indirect oxidant stress is a complex process, associated with changes in expression levels of a number of genes. We therefore postulated that flaxseed may modulate gene expression of vital signaling pathways, thus interfering with the development of tissue injury. We evaluated gene expression in lungs of flaxseed-fed (10% FS) mice under unchallenged, control conditions and 48hrs post-radiation treatment (13.5 Gy). Gene expression levels in lung tissues were analyzed using three arrays for each sample, whereby a total of 28,800 genes were evaluated. C57BL/6 black mice were fed a 10% flaxseed diet for 21 days and/or given 13.5Gy thoracic radiation and sacrificed 48hrs post radiation.
