Transcription profiling by array of mouse wild type and Fibroblast specific protein 1 expressing liver

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to investigate FSP1 in human and experimental liver disease, and to characterize FSP1-positive cells. Results: FSP1-positive cells are increased in human and experimental liver diseases including liver cancer but do not synthesize type I collagen or express other classical markers of myofibroblasts including aSMA and desmin. Surprisingly, FSP1 positive cells express F4/80 and other markers characteristic of the myeloid-monocytic lineage as evaluated by double-immunofluorescence staining, cell fate tracking, flow cytometry andtranscriptional profiling. Conclusion: These findings suggest that FSP1 is a marker of a subset of macrophages in liver injury, fibrosis and cancer.

Biological effects of marine contaminated sediments on Sparus aurata juveniles

Project description:Chemical analysis of the compounds present in sediment, although informative, often is not indicative of the downstream biological effects that these contaminants exert on resident aquatic organisms. More direct molecular methods are needed to determine if marine life is affected by exposure to sediments. In this study, we used an aquatic multispecies microarray and q-PCR to investigate the effects on gene expression in juvenile sea bream (Sparus aurata) of two contaminated sediments defined as sediment 1 and 2 respectively, from marine areas in Northern Italy.

Transcription profiling of hornyhead turbot collected from polluted and clean coastal waters in southern California and zebrafish treated with estradiol and 4 nonylphenol

Project description:A custom multi-species microarray was used to study gene expression in wild hornyhead turbot (Pleuronichthys verticalis), collected from polluted and clean coastal waters in Southern California and in laboratory male zebrafish (Danio rerio) following exposure to estradiol and 4-nonylphenol. A multi-gene cross species microarray was fabricated as a diagnostic tool to screen the effects of environmental chemicals in fish, for which there is minimal genomic information. The microarray measurement of gene expression in zebrafish, which are phylogenetically distant from turbot, indicates that this multi-species microarray will be useful for measuring endocrine responses in Pleuronectiformes and other fish for which there is minimal genomic sequence information.

Identification of Sox9-Regulated Pathways During the Secondary Transition Stage of Pancreas Development

Project description:Sox9 target genes were identified during the secondary transition stage of pancreas development by comparing gene expression in Sox9-ablated versus wild-type pancreata using microarray analysis. Sox9 was conditionally ablated during the secondary transition in the developing pancreas via recombination of a Sox9-flox allele (Kist et al., 2002) using the tamoxifen-inducible Rosa26-CreER allele (Vooijs et al., 2001). Dams were injected with 6 mg/40 g tamoxifen in corn oil at e12.5. Pancreata were manually microdissected at e15.5. Total RNA was isolated and pooled from pancreata of e15.5 Sox9fl/fl; Rosa26-CreER (mutant) versus Rosa26-CreER (wild-type) littermates for four biological replicates.

Identification of a pro-angiogenic functional role for FSP1 positive fibroblast subtype in wound healing

Project description:RNA sequencing was performed on uninjured, and injured (FSP1, and aSMA expressing) fibroblasts from mice hearts. Fibrosis accompanying wound healing can drive the failure of many different organs. Activated fibroblasts are the principal determinants of post-injury pathological fibrosis as well as physiological repair, making them a difficult therapeutic target. Fibroblasts are a heterogeneous cell population lacking unique functional classification. We demonstrated that FSP1 and αSMA expressing cells are distinct, post-injury fibroblasts in the heart, kidney, and skin and exhibit unique temporal expression patterns. Using mice that express GFP under the FSP1 or αSMA promoters, we isolated these fibroblasts from mouse hearts after myocardial infarction. Protein and transcript arrays, cellular assays as well as in vivo granulation tissue formation were used to determine their functional role(s) in healing and fibrosis. Whereas αSMA+ fibroblasts predominated in producing matrix proteins, FSP1+ fibroblasts significantly promoted angiogenesis. These studies have the potential to shift our focus towards viewing fibroblasts not only molecularly but also as functionally heterogeneous and provide a new paradigm with which to approach treatment for organ fibrosis.

Microarray analysis of brain macrophage subsets and peripheral blood monocytes in traumatic brain injury

Project description:We compared arginase-1+ macrophages (macrophages were defined by flow cytometry as CD45hi CD11b+ Ly6G-) with arginase-1- brain macrophages following traumatic brain injury (TBI) by isolating these cells from YARG transgenic mice, which express YFP under the arginase-1 promoter. Both cell populations were isolated from YARG brain tissues one day following TBI. We also examined the expression profile of peripheral blood monocytes (monocytes were defined by flow cytometry as CD11bhi F4/80+) from injured YARG mice and from normal YARG mice. Peripheral blood samples were compared to TBI brain macrophages to assess gene expression changes before and after infiltration into the brain. TBI macrophage subsets were identified by using a reporter mouse strain (YARG) that expresses eYFP from an IRES inserted at the 3' end of the gene for arginase-1 (Arg1), a hallmark of alternatively activated (M2) macrophages. One day after TBI, 21Â±1.5% of ipsilateral brain macrophages expressed relatively high levels of Arg1 as detected by YFP. Gene expression analysis of Arg1+ and Arg1- brain macrophage populations revealed that these populations were distinct from either classically activated (M1) macrophages or M2 macrophages, with features of both. The Arg1+ cells differed from Arg1- cells in multiple aspects, most notably in their chemokine repertoires. Thus, the macrophage response to TBI involves recruitment of at least two major macrophage subsets. Overall, our data indicate that the macrophage response to TBI is heterogeneous and unique. Four groups (Arg1- brain macrophages post-TBI, Arg1+ brain macrophages post-TBI, normal blood monocytes, blood monocytes post-TBI) were analyzed. Four replicates of each group were analyzed for a total of 16 samples (only 3 replicates of the blood monocyte groups are included in this submission).

microRNA expression in thymic epithelial cells

Project description:Thymic epithelial cells (TECs) support T cell development in the thymus. Cortical thymic epithelial cells (cTECs) facilitate positive selection of developing thymocytes whereas medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs) facilitate the deletion of self-reactive thymocytes in order to prevent autoimmunity. The mTEC compartment is highly dynamic with continuous maturation and turnover, but the genetic regulation of these processes remains poorly understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of TEC genetic programs since miRNA-deficient TECs are severely defective. However, the individual miRNAs important for TEC maintenance and function and their mechanisms of action remain unknown. Here, we demonstrate that miR-205 is highly and preferentially expressed in mTECs during both thymic ontogeny and in the postnatal thymus. This distinct expression is suggestive of functional importance for TEC biology. Genetic ablation of miR-205 in TECs, however, neither revealed a role for miR-205 in TEC function during homeostatic conditions nor during recovery from thymic stress conditions. Thus, despite its distinct expression, miR-205 on its own is largely dispensable for mTEC biology. In order to identify miRNAs differentially expressed in mTECs, we purified cortical thymic epithelial cells (cTECs), mTECs and CD45+ cells as three distinct populations and prepared RNA for microarray analysis. Thymic subsets were FACS-purified from 4-week old NOD wildtype mice. Thymi from 10-12 female mice were pooled together for stromal cell isolation for a total of 3 CD45+, 2 cTEC and 3 mTEC biologic replicates.

RET Kinase Inhibition in Neuroendocrine Prostate Cancer, part 2

Project description:Increased treatment of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with second-generation anti-androgen therapies (ADT) has coincided with a greater incidence of lethal, aggressive variant prostate cancer (AVPC) tumors that have lost androgen receptor (AR) signaling. AVPC tumors may also express neuroendocrine markers, termed neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC). Recent evidence suggests kinase signaling may be an important driver of NEPC. To identify targetable kinases in NEPC, we performed global phosphoproteomics comparing AR-negative to AR-positive prostate cancer cell lines and identified multiple altered signaling pathways, including enrichment of RET kinase activity in the AR-negative cell lines. Clinical NEPC and NEPC patient derived xenografts displayed upregulated RET transcript and RET pathway activity. Pharmacologically inhibiting RET kinase in NEPC models dramatically reduced tumor growth and cell viability in mouse and human NEPC models. Our results suggest that targeting RET in NEPC tumors with high RET expression may be a novel treatment option.
