Project description:Light-controlled in situ synthesis of DNA microarrays (Affymetrix GeneChip® Mouse Genome 430 2.0) were performed to determine the altered gene expression. Affymetrix algorithm and multiple analysis comparison software were used for assessing gene expression differences, and mRNAs that increased or decreased in the brains of NP(α-M)-treated mice relative to that in the brains of Blank-NP-treated mice were identified. For the assay, total RNA was extracted using Takara RNAiso Plus Kit (Cat#9109, Takara, DaLian, LiaoNing, CN) following the manufacturer’s instructions and checked for a RIN number to inspect RNA integrity by an Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent technologies, Santa Clara, CA, US). Qualified total RNA was further purified by RNeasy mini kit (Cat#74106, QIAGEN, GmBH, Germany) and RNase-Free DNase Set (Cat#79254, QIAGEN, GmBH, Germany). Array hybridization and wash was performed using GeneChip® Hybridization, Wash and Stain Kit (Cat#900720, Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, US) in Hybridization Oven 645 (Cat#00-0331-220V, Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, US) and Fluidics Station 450 (Cat#00-0079, Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, US) followed the manufacturer’s instructions. Slides were scanned by GeneChip® Scanner 3000 (Cat#00-00212, Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, US) and Command Console Software 4.0 (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, US) with default settings. Raw data were normalized by MAS 5.0 algorithm, Gene Spring Software12.6.1 (Agilent technologies, Santa Clara, CA, US).

Project description:We have used a tiled microarray based on the D4Z4 sequence, and hybridized amplified transcripts from facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) and control (CTRL) samples to detect D4Z4 related expression. Microarrays were analyzed by GenePix Pro 6 (Axon). Local background corrected, median spot intensities were normalized using VSN in R. Due to this normalization strategy, we have treated the microarrays as single channels. The normalized values are uploaded with each sample. Hybridizations were performed in a dye-swap fashion. Samples GSM306099 and GSM306100 are on a single array, and so are GSM306101 and GSM306102, GSM306103 and GSM306104, GSM306105 and GSM306106.

Project description:Human hepatocellular carcinoma cells, HepG2 , cultured in DMEM containing 10% fetal calf serum. To study gene expression changes induced by Vitamin K2, total RNA was isolated following the Isogen procedure (Nippon-gene, Tokyo, Japan) from HepG2 cells with and without 50 microM of Vitamin K2 treatment for three days. The cDNA microarrays Human Oligo Chip 30K “AceGene” subset A was purchased from Hitachi Software Engineering Co. (Yokohama-City, Japan). This array contains 10368 kinds of gene-specific 50 mer sense oligonucleotides. Subset A contains mainly known function ORF oligo probes. Preparation of fluorescent cDNA targets by an indirect labeling approach was performed using PowerScript reverse transcription kit (Clontech). First-strand cDNAs were synthesized from 30 microg of total RNA from HepG2 cells treated with or without Vitamin K2 using random primer and PoweScript Fluorescent Labelling Kit. Monofunctional, N-hydroxysuccinimide-activated fluorescent dyes (Cy3 and Cy5; Amersham) were coupled to the cDNAs by reaction with the amino functional groups. Untreated cells were labeled with Cy3 as a control and treated cells with Cy5 as a sample. After free dyes were removed using MinElute Purification kit (Qiagen), the targets were mixed together and added to the microarrays, and then incubated overnight (16 hours) at 42?C. The slides were washed at 30?C in each with 2x SSC, 0.1% SDS and 2x SSC for 10 min and 5 min, respectively, and washed in 1x SSC for 5 min. Fluorescent images of the hybridized microarrays were scanned with a fluorescence laser confocal slide scanner (Affymetrix 428 Array Scanner, Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). The Cy3 and Cy5 intensities with background subtraction were determined by ImaGene 4.2 software (BioDiscovery, Marina Del Rey, CA). The expression data were then filtered based on their channel intensities, spot size and flag (missing or inaccurate data), and the Cy5/Cy3 ratios were calculated and normalized by median-centering the log-ratio of all genes.

Project description:Nocardioform placentitis (NP) continues to result in episodic outbreaks of abortion and preterm birth in mares and remains a poorly understood disease. The objective of this study was to characterize the transcriptome of the chorioallantois (CA) of mares with NP. Term CA were collected from mares with gross lesions consistent with NP, and NP was subsequently confirmed in four CA based upon pathology and PCR for Amycolatopsis spp. CA samples were collected from the margin of the NP lesion (NPL, n=4) and grossly normal region (NPN, n=4). Additionally, CA samples were collected from normal postpartum mares (Control; CRL, n=4). Transcriptome analysis identified 2,892 DEGs in CRL vs. NPL and 2,450 DEGs in NPN vs. NPL. Functional genomics analysis elucidated that inflammatory signaling, toll-like receptor signaling, inflammasome activation, chemotaxis, and apoptosis pathways dominate NP. The increased leukocytic infiltration in NPL was associated with the upregulation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP1, MMP3, and MMP8) and apoptosis-related genes, such as caspases (CASP3 and CASP7), which could explain placental separation associated with NP. Also, NP was associated with downregulation of several placenta-regulatory genes (ABCG2, GCM1, EPAS1, and NR3C1), angiogenesis-related genes (VEGFA, FLT1, KDR, and ANGPT2), and glucose transporter coding genes (GLUT1, GLUT10, and GLUT12), as well as upregulation of hypoxia-related genes (HIF1A and EGLN3), which could elucidate placental insufficiency accompanying NP. In conclusion, our findings revealed for the first time, the key regulators and mechanisms underlying placental inflammation, separation, and insufficiency during NP.

Project description:A total of 10 male Fischer 344 rats, 5 weeks old, were purchased from Charles River Japan, Incorporated, Atsugi, Kanagawa, Japan. Rats were divided into 2 groups each consisting of 5 animals housed in a plastic cage with white flake bedding in an air-conditioned room. Rats were used for the experimentation after a 1-week acclimation on a basal diet (CRF-1, Oriental Yeast Corporation, Itabashi, Tokyo, Japan) and allowed free access to food and tap water throughout the acclimation and experimental periods. Body weight, food consumption, and water intake were monitored weekly. The CDAA diet was obtained from Dyets, Bethlehem, PA. After acclimation, group 1 rats were administered the basal diet, while group 2 rats were placed on the CDAA diet for 70 weeks and then sacrificed. The livers were taken and macroscopically examined. Portions of group 1 livers, as well as the macroscopic tumors and their surrounding, non-cancerous tissues of group 2 livers were fixed in 10% neutrally-buffered-formalin for 24 hours, embedded in paraffin, processed for the routine hematoxylin-and-eosin staining procedure, and histologically examined. Remaining portions of these 3 types of liver tissues were immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80C. Group 1 liver tissues, group 2 liver tissues from non-cancerous areas, and group 2 liver tissues from tumors (after histologically diagnosed as HCCs; see the results section) were used as normal liver samples, surrounding non-cancerous liver samples, and HCC samples, hereafter referred to as CON, NC, and CA, respectively. The microarray and RT-PCR experiments and the subsequent data analysis were performed using 5 CON samples from individual group 1 rats and 5 matched pairs of NC and CA samples from individual group 2 animals. RNA Isolation and Probe Labeling. Total RNA from liver tissues was isolated using RNeasy Midi kits (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany). The integrity of the RNA was checked by electrophoresis on 1% agarose-formaldehyde gels. Five micrograms of total RNA from individual samples were labeled with Cy3 (Amersham Biosciences, Uppsara, Sweden) using BD Atlas Powerscript Fluorescent Labeling kits (BD Biosciences Clontech, Palo Alto, CA) according to the manufacturer’s protocols. Hybridization, Scanning, and Quantification. Cy3-labeled probes were hybridized to Atlas Rat 3.8 I microarrays (BD Biosciences Clontech) containing 3757 genes for 16 hours at 50C. After hybridization, microarrays were washed, dried, and scanned using a GMS 418 confocal laser scanner (Genetic MicroSystems, Woburn, MA). Fluorescence intensities of the Cy3 channels were quantified using ImaGene 4.0 software (BioDiscovery, El Segundo, CA). Data analysis was performed using the GeneSpring software, version 5.1 (Silicon Genetics, Redwood City, CA), including appropriate statistics. Dividing by the median calculated from all of the signal intensities for the Cy3 in a given sample normalized the fluorescence signal for each gene. The VALUEs for each gene was then calculated by dividing the normalized signal by the median of each gene to offset differences in expression levels between genes. Keywords: parallel sample

Project description:Confluent human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were exposed to Thrombin (2 U/mL) for 2 hours. Ribosomal profiling via gradient centrifugation and fractionation was used to separate monosome, or under-translated, and polysome, or actively translated, mRNA species that were then used to probe cDNA arrays, a process known as Translation State Array Analysis (TSAA). Four samples were obtained from these experiments, Control Monosome, Control Polysome, Thrombin Monosome, and Thrombin Polysome. Using the normalized signal intensities from the GeneFilters, we calculated a translation index, or measure of movement of an mRNA molecule from the monosome to the polysome fraction upon stimulation. This calculation was made as follows: (thrombin polysome/thrombin monosome)/(control polysome/control monosome). Translational indices greater than 2.5 (upregulated) or lower than 0.4 (downregulated) were chosen for further study. TSAA data suggests that JunB is translationally regulated by thrombin stimulation. Immunocytochemistry, western blotting and RT-PCR were used to verify the results of TSAA. Polysome Profiling. HUVECs were stimulated with thrombin (2 U/mL) for 2 hours. Cycloheximide (CHX) was added to a final concentration of 100 ng/mL for 5 minutes and cells were then rinsed with cold HBSS containing CHX (100 ng/mL) and scraped from the dish and pelleted by centrifugation (2000 x g, 5 minutes). The supernatant was removed and cells were carefully resuspended in 375 microL Low Salt Buffer (LSB; 20 mM Tris, 10 mM NaCl, 3 mM MgCl2, pH 7.4) + RNasin (40 U/mL) + DTT (10 nM) for 3 minutes on ice. 125 microL LSB Lysis buffer (LSB containing 200 mM sucrose and 1.2% Triton-X100) was then added and cells disrupted by pipetting. The mixture was then transferred to 1.7 mL microfuge tubes and centrifuged (20,000 x g, 1 minute, 4 degrees C) to remove nuclei and cellular debris. The supernatant was transferred to a new tube containing 50 microL LSB + RNasin (40 U/mL) + DTT (10 nM) and 15 microL 5M NaCl. This mixture was then layered onto prepoured gradients (15-50% sucrose in LSB). Gradients were spun at 43,700 rpm for 90 minutes (4 degrees C) and then run on a density gradient flow cell fractionator (Isco) to obtain ribosomal profiles. Ribosomal fractions corresponding to monosomes (M) and polysomes (P) (Figure 1) were collected into Trizol LS (Invitrogen) and total RNA isolated according to the directions of the manufacturer. Total RNA was reverse transcribed using oligo dT primers in the presence of 33P dCTP to generate labeled cDNA probes from the M and P associated mRNA fractions of control and stimulated cells and these probes used to detect specific array elements on four identical Research Genetics (ResGen) Named Human Gene cDNA GeneFilters (GF 211, Invitrogen). These filters were washed using high stringency conditions and exposed to phosphorimaging screens for analysis using Pathways 3, proprietary software included with the ResGen filters. Hybridization signals were normalized to the average intensity of the hybridization signals from the particular array filter to correct for differing global hybridization efficiencies between filters. To determine if a particular hybridization signal was significantly above background levels, an initial screen of the array elements was conducted by dividing the hybridization signal of an individual cDNA spot by the background signal on particular filter. Background signal levels were determined using the Pathways 3 analysis software that measures the signal intensity of the area between cDNA spots and averages that signal over the area of the entire array. Array elements were considered to be distinguishable from background if the hybridization signal/background ratio was greater than 1.1. Signal intensities from each filter were normalized by dividing the raw signal intensity of the cDNA spot by the average signal intensity for the entire filter. The translation state (TS) of each qualifying array element was determined by dividing the normalized signal intensity of the element in the polysome fraction by the normalized signal intensity of the element in the monosome fraction: TS=P/M. The Translation Index (TLI), a measure of the change of translation states of individual genes, was determined by calculating the ratio of the treated cell TS to the control cell TS; TLI = TSe/TSc where e represents experimental or treated conditions and c represents controls. In this scenario, a gene that is not regulated by translation would have a TLI value of 1, actively translated genes would have a TLI value greater than 1, whereas a poorly translated or under-translated gene would have a TLI value less than 1. Arbitrary TLI values of 2.5 and 0.4 were used to categorize individual array elements as being translationally regulated. A measure of transcriptional activity was also determined from the signal intensities of the array elements. Summing the normalized signal intensities from the M and P fractions of the experimental cells and dividing that value by the sum of the normalized signal intensities from the control fractions calculated the Transcription Index (TCI). Therefore, TCI = (Me + Pe)/(Mc + Pc). If transcript levels for a specific gene do not change, the TCI value for that gene will be 1. Genes that are transcribed upon stimulation of the cells will have a TCI value greater than 1, while genes that are not transcribed or transcription is down-regulated upon stimulation will have a TCI value less than 1. Arbitrary values of 2 and 0.5, a doubling or halving of the amount of mRNA for that element, respectively, were used to categorize individual array elements as being transcriptionally regulated.

Project description:Ferric uptake regulator (Fur) is the major regulator of iron acquisition in Escherichia coli and other bacteria. In the present study, the role of Fur in anaerobic S. enterica serovar Typhimurium was determined by transcriptome analysis, reporter assays, and enzymatic assays. In anaerobic ?fur, 298 genes were differentially expressed. In general, Fur repressed genes required for iron acquisition/storage, metabolism, electron transport, oxidative/nitrosative stress, and modulators of virulence. There were 73 genes whose expression required Fur, eleven of which contain a putative Fur box 5? of the gene. Transcription of sodA was >9-fold higher in ?fur but there was no corresponding increase in the activity of SodA. Anaerobic cultures of the fur mutant and the WT were used to inoculate two sets of three independent flasks each containing 150 ml of anoxic LB-MOPS-X. The three independent cultures were grown to an optical density at 600 nm (OD600) of 0.25 to 0.35, pooled, and treated with RNAlater (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA) to fix the cells and preserve the quality of the RNA. Total RNA was extracted with the RNeasy RNA extraction kit (QIAGEN), and the samples were treated with RNase-free DNase (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). The absence of contaminating DNA and the quality of the RNA was confirmed by PCR amplification of known genes and by using agarose gel electrophoresis. Aliquots of the RNA samples were kept at –80°C for use in the microarray and quantitative real-time reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR) studies. The SuperScript Indirect cDNA labeling system (Invitrogen) was used to synthesize the cDNA for the hybridizations. Each experiment consisted of two hybridizations, on two slides, and was carried out in Corning Hybridization Chambers at 42°C overnight. Dye swapping was performed to avoid dye-associated effects on cDNA synthesis. The slides were washed at increasing stringencies (2x SSC [1x SSC is 0.15 M NaCl plus 0.015 M sodium citrate], 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate [SDS], 42°C; 0.1% SSC, 0.1% SDS, room temperature; 0.1% SSC, room temperature). Following hybridization, the microarrays were scanned for the Cy3 and Cy5 fluorescent signals with a ScanArray 4000 microarray scanner from GSI Lumonics (Watertown, MA). The intensity of every spot was codified as the sum of the intensities of all the pixels within a circle positioned over the spot itself and the background as the sum of the intensities of an identical number of pixels in the immediate surroundings of the circled spot. Cy3 and Cy5 values for each spot were normalized over the total intensity for each dye to account for differences in total intensity between the two scanned images. The consistency of the data obtained from the microarray analysis was evaluated by a pair-wise comparison, calculated with a two-tailed Student's t test and analyzed by the MEAN and TTEST procedures of SAS-STAT statistical software (SAS Institute, Cary, NC) . The signal intensity at each spot from the fur mutant and the WT were background subtracted, normalized, and used to calculate the ratio of gene expression between the two strains. All replicas were combined, and the median expression ratios and standard deviations were calculated for open reading frames (ORFs) showing 2.5-fold change.

Project description:Transcriptome changes were investigated for Euphorbia esula (leafy spurge) seeds with a focus on the effect of constant and diurnal fluctuating temperature on dormancy and germination. Leafy spurge seeds do not germinate when incubated for 21 days at 20°C constant temperatures, but nearly 30% germinate after 21 days under fluctuating temperatures 20:30°C (16:8 h). Incubation at 20°C for 21 followed by 20:30°C resulted in approximately 63% germination in about 10 days. A cDNA microarray representing approximately 22,000 unique sequences was used to profile transcriptome changes. Labeled cDNA was prepared from total RNA using the Alexa Fluor cDNA labeling kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) according to manufacture's protocols. Labeled cDNAs were hybridized to a custom made 23 K element microarray that contained 19,808 unigenes from the leafy spurge EST database and an additional 4,129 unigenes from a cassava EST database. A rolling circle dye swap hybridization scheme was used to compare gene expression between samples. There were three biological and two technical replications for each treatment. Microarray hybridization was visualized using a GenPix 4000B scanner (Axon Instruments/Molecular Devices Corp., Sunnyvale, CA) and spot intensities and background was quantified using GenPix Pro software. Hybridization intensities were log2 transformed, and arrays were centered and normalized against each other.
