Project description:The aim of this study was to identify alterations associated with diabetes-induced functional dysregulation of the retina and the effects of chronic insulin therapy. Transcriptional profiling through microarray analysis was analyzed to find mRNA targets of interest in diabetic samples, as well as in the insulin treated group. Verification of targets shown to be unrecovered in the insulin group was validated. Diabetes was induced in Sprague-Dawley male rats (Charles River Laboratories, Wilmington, MA) by intraperitoneal injection of 65 mg/kg streptozotocin (STZ)(Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) in 10mM sodium citrate pH 4.5 vehicle. Control rats were injected with an equal dose of vehicle only. Rats had free access to food and water, and were maintained on a 12 hour light/dark cycle. Blood glucose level and body weight were measured 6 days post-STZ or vehicle injection, and biweekly throughout the experiment. Only rats with blood glucose levels >250 mg/dL at the time of the original test and throughout the experiment were included in the diabetic groups. The insulin treatment group received one 26mg subcutaneous pellet (LinShin Canada, Scarborough, Canada) delivered via trocar 6 weeks post-STZ injection. An additional 26 mg implant was introduced when body weight exceeded 300 g or when midday non-fasting blood glucose exceeded 250 mg/dL. At the time of retina harvest, rats were given a lethal dose of pentobarbital, 100 mg/kg, (Ovation Pharmaceuticals Inc., Deerfield, IL) by intraperitoneal injection and sacrificed by decapitation. Retinas were rapidly excised snap- frozen in liquid nitrogen for subsequent experimentation.

Project description:To identify the key genes and pathways which might play critical roles in the pathogenesis of experimental DPN via microarray analysis. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (initial weight 250-300g, from the department of laboratory animal science of Fudan University) were randomly assigned into two groups: control rats and diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced with a single intraperitoneal injection of STZ (55mg/kg). Control rats were performed with a single intraperitoneal injection of 0.9% saline solution. Glucose level was evaluated using Sannuo strips on tail vein blood at day 3 after STZ injection and verified again at day 7 after STZ injection. Only rats with blood glucose level 16.7 mmol/L were considered diabetic.Six weeks after diabetes induction, nerve tissue samples (about 1cm long) were harvested from the right sciatic nerve of rats in control (n=3) and diabetic (n=3) groups for total RAN isolation. Microarray hybridization was then performed according to the Agilent One-Color Microarray-Based Gene Expression Analysis protocol (Agilent Technologies). Quantile normalization and subsequent data processing were performed using the GeneSpring GX v12.1 software package (Agilent Technologies). The univariate t-test with a fold-change >2 and P value < 0.001 was applied to identify the DEGs between control rats and diabetic rats. Credibility of the microarray data was validated through qRT-PCR on 4 genes. Total RNA was independently extracted from the right sciatic nerve of rats in both groups (n=3) 6 weeks after diabetes induction.

Project description:Sixteen male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated into 2 groups (8 rats per group) as follows: the control group (CON) and the dexamethasone-treated group (DEXA). Dexamethasone-treated rats received a daily intraperitoneal injection of 1.5 mg/kg of dexamethasone for 5 days. All rats were fasted during the night following the fifth day. On the sixth day, the animals were killed by decapitation. In order to focus our investigation on metabolism-related genes, we developed a metabolism dedicated microarray tool: the Mitoligo. Using this microarray tool, we were able to determine that energy metabolism was deeply modified by dexamethasone treatment. Dexamethasone treatment to rats induces a complete switch of the metabolism toward a maximal rate of ATP synthesis. In this study, we show that substrate supplying for oxidative phosphorylation is greatly enhanced. We also confirm that oxidative phosphorylation capacity is increased by dexamethasone treatment.

Project description:We investigate the direct effects of ARBs on prostate cancer growth and progression. A total of 36 heterozygous male TRAP rats of 3 weeks of age were randomly divided into three groups. Rats in group 1 as a control received basal diet and tap water. The rats in groups 2 and 3 continuously received 2 or 10 mg/kg/day telmisartan in drinking water for 12 weeks, respectively. Total RNAs of both control and telmisartan (10 mg/kg/day) were applied to microarray analysis.

Project description:To examine irreversible changes in the developing brain following seizures, juvenile inbred mice were intraperitoneally injected with kainate and nicotine. Experiment Overall Design: Kainate and nicotine were dissolved in sterile saline, and intraperitoneally injected into postnatal day 23 males at a dose of 15 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg, respectively. Control mice received a comparable injection of saline. The injection was repeated three times at 2-hour intervals in the daytime, and after one week, the P30 survivors were sacrificed for sample preparation. Neocortices and hippocampi were isolated from mice that had received the repeated injections of saline, kainate, and nicotine (n=6, 5, and 6 mice, respectively).

Project description:Male Sprague Dawley rats were treated daily by oral gavage with either corn oil, chlorpyrifos, or PF-04457845 (selective FAAH inhibitor) from postnatal day10-16. The rats were scarified on postnatal day 38, and brains were collected and stored at -80˚C. Amygdala was isolated from the brain, homogenized the tissue, proteins were quantified, trypsin digested, and analyzed by LC ESI MS/MS.

Project description:Background and Aims: It is well demonstrated that in the beta cell population of the pancreas there is a dynamic turnover, which results from the net balance of several processes; beta cell replication, apoptosis and neogenesis. These processes have been studied in partial pancreatectomy and glucagon-like peptide 1 treated animals, where an increase in pancreas regeneration has been observed. Similarly, sodium tungstate, which decreases hyperglycemia in several animal models of diabetes, promotes a rise in the beta cell mass of nSTZ and STZ animals. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this pancreas regeneration remain unknown. Therefore the objective of this study is to identify which genes are up or down regulated in the increase of the beta cell population of STZ rats treated with sodium tungstate. Materials and methods: Adult male Wistar (225-250 g) rats were kept under a constant 12-hour light-dark cycle and rats were kept under a constant 12-hour light-dark cycle and were allowed to eat and drink freely. Diabetes was induced by a single i.p. injection of streptozotocin (STZ) (70 mg/Kg body weight) in 0.9% NaCl with 100 mmol/L sodium citrate buffer (pH 4.5). Diabetes was confirmed by determination of its hyperglycaemia (>500mg/dL [Reflotron, Roche Diagnostic]). Healthy rats received an i.p. injection of the vehicle. Treatment started 7 days after the STZ or vehicle injection. Diabetic and healthy rats were divided into two groups. In the first (untreated), rats received deionized drinking water; in the second (treated) group, they were given a solution of sodium tungstate. During the first week of treatment, the rats received a solution of 0.7 mg/mL and in the next 4-5 weeks, the concentration was increased to 2 mg/mL. At the end of the experiment, the animals were sacrificed and pancreatic RNA isolated. Three chips (Affymetrix RAE-230A) were hybridized for each of the four experimental groups (untreated and treated healthy rats and untreated and treated diabetic rats). The raw intensity data obtained from the microarrays was normalized and summarized using the Bioconductor package RMA.
