Project description:LC-MS data sets of five sub cellular fractions of a Hodgkin lymphoma cell line (KMH2) before and after challenged with glucosamine for 24 hours is provided. Each of the ten samples was run in triplicates to allow variance estimates leading to a data set of 30 LC-MS runs with high mass accuracy and resolution in MS and MSMS.
Project description:We did transcription profiling on the effect of glucosamine in Saccharomyces cerevisiae using Research Genetics strains BY4741 (wild type) and 5251 (fks1). Yeast cells exposed to glucosamine in YPD growth medium show a significant increase in chitin content in the lateral cell wall. Likewise, cell wall stress caused by a gene deletion e.g., fks1 also results in elevated chitin. By comparing our data for fks1 with those from the literature we confirmed a strong induction of genes responsive to cell wall integrity, environmental stress as well as genes involved in cell signaling. Wild type cells treated with 15 mM glucosamine for 2 hours did not show any significant change in their transcription profile although the chitin level doubled during this time. For cells continuously exposed to glucosamine (steady state) there was a moderate transcription response, 105 genes showed a two-fold or higher change. The largest groups of up-regulated genes were those involved in mating, sporulation and cell cycle arrest. The largest group of down-regulated genes pertained to mitochondrial respiration. There was little overlap between those genes that have altered transcription from glucosamine treatment and those responsive to the fks1 mutation.

Project description:Glucosamine proved to be a potent, broad-spectrum inhibitor of IL-1beta. Of the 2,813 genes whose transcription was altered by IL-1beta stimulation (p<0.0001), glucosamine significantly blocked the response in 2,055 (~73%). Glucosamine fully protected the chondrocytes from IL-1-induced expression of inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and growth factors as well as proteins involved in PGE2 and NO synthesis. It also blocked the IL-1-induced expression of matrix specific proteases such as MMPs -3,-9,-10,-12 and ADAMTS-1. Experiment Overall Design: Articular cartilage was isolated from the femoral heads of male Wistar rats under aseptic conditions. Chondrocytes were obtained by sequential digestion of the cartilage with pronase and type II collagenase. After filtration to remove tissue debris, the cells were cultured in 75-cm2 flasks in complete Dulbeccoâs Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM; supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin-streptomycin at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2. Experiments were subsequently performed with second-passage cultures whereby the cells from the large cultures were trypsinized, pooled and seeded into twenty 25 cm2 flasks. These were then divided into 4 treatment groups to evaluate the effects of glucosamine and IL-1 on global transcription patterns.To the culture medium in half of the flasks, glucosamine, HCl was added to a final concentration of 20 mM. Six hours later, IL-1beta was added at 10 ng/ml to 5 of the flasks receiving glucosamine and to 5 of the untreated flasks. Fourteen hours post IL-1beta stimulation, total RNA was isolated individually from the respective cultures and microarray experiments processed.

Project description:Examined the expression effects of supplementing Drosophila food on heart and nephrocyte complexes 30 female flies fed standard diet supplemented with 0.1 M glucosamine were dissected in cold ADH, and heart/nephrocyte complexes were harvested and analyzed. Animals were pre-fed glucosamine or sucrose, and heart/nephrocyte complexes were assessed for differences in gene expression.

Project description:To identify genes and pathways involved in the pathogenesis of Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) and Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (ALCL) , we used the Ontario Cancer Institute (OCI) Human 27k arrays (UNH Homo sapiens 19K8 array), to study the expression profiling in pairs of HL-derived cell lines (KMH2 and L428) and ALCL-derived cell lines (DEL and SR-786).
Project description:Human lymphocyte T cells in vitro were exposed to azaspiracid (1 or 10 nM) for 1, 4, or 24 hours. Time matched controls (methanol 0.1% v/v) was used.
Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the major joint diseases. Glucosamine (GlcN) is widely used as a dietary supplement for OA. However, its precise mechanisms are not well understood. GlcN is utilized for the O-linked-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modification of proteins, which participates in the regulation of cellular functions. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the effect of GlcN and alloxan (O-GlcNAc transferase inhibitor, which prevented O-GlcNAc modification) on the gene expression using DNA microarray. GlcN downregulated or upregulated genes. Furthermore, among the GlcN-downregulated or upregulated genes, the expression of 62.7% of the genes was restored by alloxan.. Thus, it is suggested that GlcN regulates the gene expression by an O-GlcNAc modification-dependent or -independent mechanism.
