Project description:Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibition reduces stroke and improves brain capillary integrity in stroke prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP). We tested the hypothesis that treatment with an angiotensin II receptor subtype 1 (AT1R) antagonist has different effects, compared to an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, on gene expression in blood-brain barrier (BBB) capillaries. Six weeks old SHRSP were treated with either olmesartan (4 mg/kg, n=20), lisinopril (6 mg/kg , n=20) or remained untreated (n=20). Blood pressure was controlled by tail-cuff measurement. After 5 weeks the animals were sacrificed and cerebral capillaries were isolated. mRNA was extracted and analyzed with rat GeneChip DNA arrays. Additionally, brain histology and monocyte/macrophage infiltrates were determined. Both treatments similarly reduced neurological signs of stroke, stroke mortality, and monocyte/macrophage infiltration, compared to controls. Blood pressure was not influenced significantly by both drugs. We found 42 transcripts that were regulated by both treatments in the same manner. These genes were mostly related to inflammation. We also observed 39 differentially expressed genes between the two treatment groups that typically contribute to cell growth and differentiation. This study demonstrates that, despite similar effects on cerebral pathology and outcome, ACE inhibition and AT1R blockade have distinct molecular effects on gene expression in BBB capillaries.

Project description:In hypertension, abnormal regulation of microcirculation and endothelial dysfunction enhances vulnerability to hypertensive brain damage. In addition to lowering blood pressure, blockade of Angiotensin II AT1 receptors protects against stroke and stress in different animal models and this treatment may be of therapeutic advantage. We studied gene expression using Affymetrix Rat Genome U34A arrays from brain microvessels of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and their normotensive Wistar Kyoto controls (WKY) rats treated with an AT1 antagonist (candesartan, 0.3 mg/kg/day) or vehicle via osmotic minipumps for 4 weeks.

Project description:To determine if there exists a consistent gene signature associated with vascular hypertrophy among different rat hypertensive models: treated and untreated Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats and treated and untreated Spontaneous Hypertensive Rat (SHR) rats. Experiment Overall Design: Two strains of rat were studies: WKY which are normotensive and SHR which are hypertensive. Aortic tissue was taken from 6 untreated WKY rats and 6 WKY rats treated with angiotensin. Aortic tissue was taken from 6 untreated SHR rats, 6 treated with nifedipine for two weeks and 5 treated with nifedipine for two weeks and then washed out for three weeks. There was a total of 29 samples. A pool of RNA from 6 untreated WKY rats was used as a reference. Hybridizations were performed in duplicate with a dye-flip and always with the reference as the second color.

Project description:Over-expression of human angiotensin-II receptor type1 (hAT1R) may cause pathological outcomes due to overactivation of renin-angiotensin system. Transgenic (TG) mice containing Hap-I (hypertensive genotype) of human hAT1R gene are more prone to develop metabolic syndrome disorders as compared to TG mice with Hap-II (normotensive genotype). This gene variant associated risk of hypertension together with Western diet and aging may lead to renal disorders. However, mechanisms underlying this process are not well examined. For this purpose, we studied the renal gene expression alterations in aged TG mice containing either Hap-I or Hap-II of hAT1R gene. Aged mice (20-24 months of age) were maintained on a regular diet or high fat diet with 2% NaCl (Western diet, WD) for 16 weeks. On a regular diet, aged Hap-I mice presented higher (~9 mmHg) systolic blood pressure with respect to age-matched Hap-II animals. Following administration of Western diet, blood pressure increased in both groups of mice, but to a larger extent in Hap-I animals (~15 mmHg in comparison to ~7 mmHg in Hap-II). Aged Hap-I mice on Western diet showed increased renal fibrosis. RNA-seq data from renal tissue of Hap-I aged mice revealed that WD significantly altered the expression of >400 genes (p-adj. <0.05). Bioinformatics analysis (Qiagen IPA software) identified major alterations in main canonical pathways involved in renal function and oxidative damage. These changes in turn resulted in kidney failure, renal tubular injury, and renal proliferation. In addition, post WD treatment, RNA seq. analysis from Hap-I and Hap-II kidneys also reveals haplotype specific regulation of genes associated with blood pressure regulation and kidney disorders. Overall, these results indicate that Western diet promotes hypertension and fibrosis in the kidneys of aged mice. These alterations are paralleled by perturbation of renal transcriptional profile. Overall, these studies will assist in the identification of novel mechanisms and molecules involved in hypertension and associated kidney pathophysiology.

Project description:Angiotensin II stimulates fibroblast proliferation and substantially alters gene expression patterns leading to cardiac remodeling, but the mechanisms for such differences are unknown. MicroRNAs are a novel mechanism for gene expression regulation. Herein we tested the miRNAs patterns in mouse heart using microarray assay, and investigated their role in angiotensin II-induced cardiac remodeling. In this study, nine samples (three groups) from mouse were used to acquire the miRNA expression profiling and the function of the abudant miRNAs in the heart were analyzed by bioinformatic methods.

Project description:This study examined the renal gene expression profiles between spontaneously-hypertensive rats (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats at a pre-hypertensive stage (3 weeks of age) and hypertensive stage (9 weeks of age). In addition, age-related changes in gene expression patterns were examined from 3 to 9 weeks in both WKY and SHR. Five to six individual kidney samples of the same experimental group were pooled together and quadruplicate hybridizations were performed on the NIEHS Rat v2.1, 2.2 and 3.0 arrays. Keywords: other
