Lacerated muscle gene expression


ABSTRACT: We investigated the inflammatory gene profile of surgically-repaired lacerated muscles during the recovery phase and examined if it was influenced by the integrity/injury of the IM, intramuscular nerve using 3 lacerated rat muscle models: DN, where the IM-nerve was concomitantly cut; RN, where the IM-nerve was crushed but leaving an intact nerve sheath; and PN, a control where the IM-nerve was preserved intact. After 2, 4 and 8 weeks, the animals were sacrificed and their gastrocnemius muscles were removed and total RNA was extracted with Qiagen RNeasy Fibrous Tissue Mini Kit according to manufacturers instructions. Biotin-labelled cRNA probes were synthesized from total RNA by using a TrueLabeling-AMP Linear RNA amplification kit (SABiosciences Corp, Frederick, MD). The labeled cRNA probes were hybridized to oligonucleotide fragments spotted on the gene array membranes. Membranes were washed to remove any unincorporated probe and incubated with alkaline phosphatase-conjugated streptavidin (AP-streptavidin). Relative expression levels of specific genes were detected from signals generated by chemiluminescence from the alkaline phosphatase substrate, CDP-Star. The luminizing blots were used to expose X-ray films and quantified by spot densitometry with the aid of GEArray expression analysis suite (SABiosciences Corp, Frederick, MD). The abundance of each transcript was normalized to the normal un-operated muscle of the opposite limb, and to the housekeeping gene markers on each array (Aldoa, GAPdH and BAS2C). The results were presented as log2-fold expression with PN used as a control, to compare the two different types of nerve injuries (RN and DN).
