Project description:Transcriptional Profiling of mouse liver tissues comparing normal tissues, livers arising from transgene expression after hepatocy transplantation using the comparative hepatocyte growth assay, and livers with transgene turned off for 4 and 12 weeks. Experimental groups: Control normal liver; Endstage liver tumors, livers with transgene turned off for 4 weeks, and livers with transgene turned off for 12 weeks.
Project description:Transcriptional Profiling of mouse liver tissues comparing normal tissues, tissues with two weeks expression of transgene, and tumors arising from transgene expression after hepatocy transplantation using the comparative hepatocyte growth assay Experimental groups: Control (hPAP marker gene); Normal Liver Expressing Transgene for Two Weeks; Liver Tumors Expressing Transgene
Project description:To investigate the differences in microRNA expression profiles between fibrotic and normal livers, we performed microRNA microarrays for total RNA extracts isolated from mouse livers treated with carbontetrachloride (CCl4) or corn-oil for 10 weeks (n=3/group). MicroRNAs were considered to have significant differences in expression level when the expression difference showed more than two-fold change between the experimental and control groups at p<0.05. We found that 12 miRNAs were differentially expressed in CCl4-induced fibrotic liver.

Project description:To investigate the differences in microRNA expression profiles between fibrotic and normal livers, we performed microRNA microarrays for total RNA extracts isolated from mouse livers treated with carbontetrachloride (CCl4) or corn-oil for 10 weeks (n=3/group). MicroRNAs were considered to have significant differences in expression level when the expression difference showed more than two-fold change between the experimental and control groups at p<0.05. We found that 12 miRNAs were differentially expressed in CCl4-induced fibrotic liver. To induce chronic liver fibrosis, seven-week-old mice received 0.6 ml/kg body weight of carbon-tetrachloride (CCl4) dissolved in corn-oil by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection, twice a week for 10 weeks (n=3). As a control, same number of mice was injected with equal volume of corn-oil for 10 weeks.
Project description:This study sought to interrogate the effects of lipids and lipid metabolites on the hepatic proteome. Protein expression in high-fat diet (HFD) mouse livers vs. livers of normal chow fed (NC) mice were investigated using multiplexed quantitative LC-MS/MS (TMT labeling). This experiment contains additional replicates for normal chow and mice on high-fat diet for 16 weeks.
Project description:The gene expression in the liver tumor tissues or non-tumor tissues of DMBA-treated, high fat diet-fed mouse livers compared with those of DMBA-treated, normal diet-fed mouse liver tissues were successfully analyzed through the expression profiling of a total of 23473 genes in mouse livers (three tumor bearing livers vs two normal mouse livers).
