Project description:Comparison of gene expression in WT and MAL knockout (MALKO) mouse macrophages treated with 10ng/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS) with that of mock-treated cells incubated for the same time (10 days). Cells from 4 mice of each genotype were used and each individual served as its own control. Hybridizations of treated and control samples were dye swapped.
Project description:Comparison of gene expression in WT and MAL knockout (MALKO) mouse macrophages treated with 10ng/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS) with that of mock-treated cells incubated for the same time (10 days). Cells from 4 mice of each genotype were used and each individual served as its own control. Hybridizations of treated and control samples were dye swapped. Two experiments: WT vs. LPS-treated WT, and MALKO vs. LPS-treated MALKO. 4 individual biological replicates for each genotype, and each mouse served as its own mock control.

Project description:PURPOSE: To provide a detailed gene expression profile of the normal postnatal mouse cornea. METHODS: Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) was performed on postnatal day (PN)9 and adult mouse (6 week) total corneas. The expression of selected genes was analyzed by in situ hybridization. RESULTS: A total of 64,272 PN9 and 62,206 adult tags were sequenced. Mouse corneal transcriptomes are composed of at least 19,544 and 18,509 unique mRNAs, respectively. One third of the unique tags were expressed at both stages, whereas a third was identified exclusively in PN9 or adult corneas. Three hundred thirty-four PN9 and 339 adult tags were enriched more than fivefold over other published nonocular libraries. Abundant transcripts were associated with metabolic functions, redox activities, and barrier integrity. Three members of the Ly-6/uPAR family whose functions are unknown in the cornea constitute more than 1% of the total mRNA. Aquaporin 5, epithelial membrane protein and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) omega-1, and GST alpha-4 mRNAs were preferentially expressed in distinct corneal epithelial layers, providing new markers for stratification. More than 200 tags were differentially expressed, of which 25 mediate transcription. CONCLUSIONS: In addition to providing a detailed profile of expressed genes in the PN9 and mature mouse cornea, the present SAGE data demonstrate dynamic changes in gene expression after eye opening and provide new probes for exploring corneal epithelial cell stratification, development, and function and for exploring the intricate relationship between programmed and environmentally induced gene expression in the cornea.

Project description:To further understanding the function of cullin 3 during inflammation in macrophages, we have employed mouse bone marrow derived macrophages microarray expression profiling to identify the gens that involve in regulationg inflammatory respones upon LPS challenge. Mouse BMM were stimulated with LPS for 6 hours and RNA was extracted for microarray. Ogt was indentified by comparison between wildtype and Cullin 3 knockout BMM.
