Common bile duct ligation time-course

ABSTRACT: Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 250-300 g were purchased from Japan SLC Co. (Shizuoka, Japan). The animals were housed under a daily controlled 12-h light and 12-h dark cycle at 23 °C with free access to rat chow (Japan SLC Co.) and water for 1 week prior to the experiments. Rats were laparotomized under ether anesthesia in each experiment, and the common bile duct of each rat was ligated between the liver hilus and small intestine. Control animals underwent a sham operation with exposure but without ligation of the common bile duct. After the CBDL or sham operation, animals were allowed access to food and water ad libitum. Groups of three rats were sacrificed under ether anesthesia at 1, 3 and 12 hr after the CBDL or sham operation. At the time of sacrifice, the right lateral liver lobe was removed and flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80 °C. Total RNA isolated from frozen livers using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen Co., Carlsbad, CA) was mixed to minimize variation among animals. Poly(A) RNA was purified using Oligotex-dT30 (Takara Shuzo Co., Ltd., Kyoto, Japan) in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. Fluorescence-labeled probes were prepared by reverse transcription using a superscript II reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen Co.) and cyanine-3- and cyanine-5-dUTP (Perkin-Elmer Inc., Wellesley, MA). Poly(A) RNAs derived from rats that has undergone CBDL and from those that has undergone a sham operation were labeled with cyanine-3 and cyanine-5, respectively, and vise varsa. Fluorescence-labeled probes were purified using a MinElute PCR Products Purification Kit (Quiagen GmbH, Hilden, Germany) in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. Each purified probe was suspended in hybridization buffer containing 1.6 mg/mL poly(A) (Roche Diagnostics, Basel, Switzerland) and yeast tRNA (Roche Diagnostics), 0.67 mg/mL herring sperm, 16% 20 x SSC and 0.3% SDS and applied to a cDNA microarray containing 1,800 rat genes on a slide glass (Asahi Technoglass Co., Tokyo, Japan). Three house-keeping genes (GAPDH, HPRT and b-actin) and rat unrelated traits (Lambda DNA) were also spotted on the slide as internal positive and negative controls, respectively. Hybridization was carried out twice to eliminate any dye bias. In one experiment, duplicate slides were hybridized with probes derived from CBDL and control rats that had been labeld with cyanine-3 and cyanine-5, respectively. In a replicate experiment, other duplicate slides were hybridized with probes derived from CBDL rats and control rats that had been labeled with cyanine-5 and cyanine-3, respectively (color swap). Then, the slides were cover-slipped and incubated in a sealed chamber (Asahi Technoglass Co.) for 16 hrs under a humidified (65 °C) condition. After being washed in low-stringency buffer (2 x SSC and 0.1% SDS), high-stringency buffer (0.2 x SSC and 0.1% SDS) and 0.2 x SSC and then rinsing with 99.5% ethanol, the slide was dried by centrifugation at low speed and used for scanning. Fluorescence was scanned by using a ScanArray 4000 (Packard BioChip Technologies, Billerica, MA) and quantified by using QuantArray Software (Packard BioChip Technologies, Billerica, MA).

The animals were housed under a daily controlled 12-h light and 12-h dark cycle at 23 °C with free access to rat chow (Japan SLC Co.) and water for 1 week prior to the experiments. Rats were intraperitoneally injected with 75 mg/kg body weight of ANIT (alpha-naphtylisothiocyanate) dissolved in olive oil (7.5 mg/mL). Control animals received an injection of the same volume of olive oil. Groups of three rats were sacrificed under ether anesthesia at 12, 18, 24 hr after ANIT or olive oil administration. At the time of sacrifice, the right lateral liver lobe was removed and flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80 °C.

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. This GEO Series was created by the GEO staff as part of a cleanup effort to ensure that all GEO Samples are included within a Series entry.
