Whole genome survey of the obesity model lean congenic mice B6.C-D7Mit353

ABSTRACT: We have analyzed the differential expression between the obesity model lean congenic B6.C-D7Mit353 (1) and the background C57BL/6J strains, in four different tissues of male mice: Brain, GWAT (Gonadal White Adipose Tissue), liver and muscle (gastrocnemius). From the 32,381 mouse genes covered by the Applied Biosystems AB1700 microarray system, we identified 330 genes passing FDR at 5% and 188 genes passing FDR at 1%, in any one of the four tissues examined. None of the genes that passed FDR testing were in the congenic donor region. 65 genes from the 8 megabases congenic region were assayed; only six genes (Thrsp, Kctd14, Myo7a, Capn5, Dgat2 and Mtap6) passed statistical significance filtering but not FDR filtering.

Project description:Bone mineral density and structure candidate gene analysis in alcohol-non-preferring (NP), alcohol-preferring (P), congenic NP (NP.P) and congenic P (P.NP) rats Genetic mapping in alcohol-preferring (P) and alcohol-non-preferring (NP) rats has identified a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) in the region between q22 – q34 on chromosome (Chr) 4 for alcohol preference. In a separate genome-wide linkage study, using inbred Fischer 344 (F344) and Lewis (LEW) rats, several QTL linked to bone density and structure were identified at the same location suggesting that bone mass and strength genes might co-segregate with genes that regulate the alcohol preference trait. The aim of this study is to identify the genes segregating for skeletal phenotypes and alcohol trait in congenic P/NP rats. We compared bone mineral content (BMC), areal/volumetric bone mineral density (aBMD/vBMD) and biomechanical strength at different skeletal sites from 6-month-old inbred and congenic P/NP rats. Transfer of the NP Chr 4 QTL into P background significantly increased body weight but decreased BMC, aBMD/vBMD in whole body, cranium, femur, and lumbar vertebrae. On the other hand, transfer of P Chr 4 QTL into NP background significantly decreased body weight but increased BMC and aBMD in the same skeletal sites. Microarray analysis was performed from the femurs of 4-week-old rats (n = 5 per strain) using Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 arrays. A total of 53 genes, including 41 candidate genes and 12 predicted genes, were differentially expressed among all strains of rats with a false discovery rate (FDR) less than 10%. Several candidate genes from microarray analysis were found to be were strongly correlated (r2>0.50) with different skeletal phenotypes. Gene expression of top 3 candidate genes from microarray profiling was validated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Ingenuity pathway analysis revealed relationships among the candidate genes related to bone metabolism including pathways related to beta-estradiol, tumor necrosis factor and androgen receptor.
