Project description:B cells expand during the recovery after DSS-induced colonic inflammation and might play a role in influencing tissue repair. To analyze the impact B cells might have on intestinal epithelial cells and stromal cells during recovery after intestinal injury the transcriptional profile of these mice was analysed in mice depleted of B cells and control mice on day 14 after DSS colitis.
Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease is characterized by chronic relapsing idiopathic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract and persistent inflammation. Studies focusing on the immune-regulatory function of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are still largely missing. In this study, we analyzed an ROS-deficient mouse model leading to colon adenocarcinoma. Colitis was induced with dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) supplied via the drinking water in wild-type (WT) and Ncf1-mutant (Ncf1) B10.Q mice using two different protocols, one mimicking recovery after acute colitis and another simulating chronic colitis. Disease progression was monitored by evaluation of clinical parameters, histopathological analysis, and the blood serum metabolome using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. At each experimental time point, colons and spleens from some mice were removed for histopathological analysis and internal clinical parameters. Clinical scores for weight variation, stool consistency, colorectal bleeding, colon length, and spleen weight were significantly worse for Ncf1 than for WT mice. Ncf1 mice with only a 7-day exposure to DSS followed by a 14-day resting period developed colonic distal high-grade dysplasia in contrast to the low-grade dysplasia found in the colon of WT mice. After a 21-day resting period, there was still β-catenin-rich inflammatory infiltration in the Ncf1 mice together with high-grade dysplasia and invasive well-differentiated adenocarcinoma, while in the WT mice, high-grade dysplasia was prominent without malignant invasion and only low inflammation. Although exposure to DSS generated less severe histopathological changes in the WT group, the blood serum metabolome revealed an increased fatty acid content with moderate-to-strong correlations to inflammation score, weight variation, colon length, and spleen weight. Ncf1 mice also displayed a similar pattern but with lower coefficients and showed consistently lower glucose and/or higher lactate levels which correlated with inflammation score, weight variation, and spleen weight. In our novel, DSS-induced colitis animal model, the lack of an oxidative burst ROS was sufficient to develop adenocarcinoma, and display altered blood plasma metabolic and lipid profiles. Thus, oxidative burst seems to be necessary to prevent evolution toward cancer and may confer a protective role in a ROS-mediated self-control mechanism.
Project description:Colonic gene expression profiles of mice with DSS-induced colitis treated with apple peel polyphenolic extract Four-condition experiment: control, DSS-induced colitis, and mice treated with DAPP (two different doses (200 and 400 mg/kg/day) before or during induction and development of DSS-induced colitis.
Project description:To find out which miRNAs are significantly differential expression and potentially involved in the process of inflammation promoting carcinogenesis of colorectal cancer (CRC). We established a colitis-associated CRC (AOM/DSS, Azoxymethane/Dextran sulfate sodium salt) model, colitis (DSS) model and high dose carcinogen (AOM, about 5 times AOM amount given than AOM/DSS model) model. At day 100 when tumor formed in AOM/DSS bearing mice (colitis-associated CRC mice) but no tumor was found in AOM (high dose carcinogen) and DSS model, we employed miRNA microarray as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to involve in the progression of CRC promoted by inflammation. 5-7 weeks female BALB/c mice, (1) AOM/DSS group: AOM 12.5mg/kg i.p. at day 1, DSS drinking 5d/21dx3circles from day 5; (2) AOM group: AOM 10mg/kg i.p. 1/weekx6 from day 1; (3) DSS group: DSS drinking 5d/21dx3circles from day 5. The distal colon epithelial tissues were collected at day100 when tumor formed in AOM/DSS bearing mice. The miRNA microarray experiments were performed together.
Project description:Adamts12-deficient mice undergo more severe colitis than WT mice after induction with DSS. We used microarrays to determine the gene expression differences between Adamts12-deficient and WT mice during ulcerative colitis induced with DSS (dextran sodium sulfate) Fragments of distal colon from DSS-treated (2% DSS during 7 days and 1 day of recovery) and untreated Adamts12-deficient and WT mice were obtained for RNA extraction and hybridiztion with Affymetrix microarrays
Project description:Temporal genome profiling of DSS colitis The DSS induced mouse colitis model is often used to emulate Ulcerative Colitis (UC) in order understand pathophysiological mechanism of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Given the progressive nature of IBD, colon tissue gene expression changes during the evolution of disease, and knowing the changes in gene expression profiles could indentify potential diagnostic markers or additional therapeutic targets for colitis. Therefore, we performed temporal genome expression profiling analysis using the Affymetrix genome wide microarray system to identify broad scale changes in gene expression associated with the development of colitis. Keywords: Expression time course of mouse colon tissue induced by 3% DSS. C57BL/6J mice were given 3% DSS in the drinking water and tissues from individual cohorts were collected at days 0, 2, 4 and 6. Total RNA were extracted from the colon tissue and detected by Affymerix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array.
