View SamplesHuman Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) associated nephropathy (HIVAN) is characterized clinically by both nephrosis and by rapidly progressive kidney dysfunction. HIVAN is characterized histologically by both collapsing focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and prominent tubular damage. Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) is known to be rapidly expressed in distal segments of the nephron at the onset of different types of acute kidney injury, but few studies have examined NGAL in chronic kidney disease models. We found that urinary NGAL (uNGAL) was highly expressed by patients with biopsy proven HIVAN, whereas HIV+ patients without HIVAN demonstrated lower levels. uNGAL was also highly expressed in the TgFVB mouse model of HIVAN, which demonstrated NGAL gene expression in dilated, microcystic segments of the nephron. These data show that NGAL is markedly upregulated in the setting of HIVAN, and suggest that uNGAL levels may provide a non-invasive screening test to detect HIVAN related tubular disease.
Urinary NGAL marks cystic disease in HIV-associated nephropathy.

View SamplesPurpose. How vitamin A contributes to the maintenance of the wet-surfaced phenotype at the ocular surface is not well understood. We sought to identify vitamin A responsive genes in ocular surface epithelia using gene microarray analysis of cultures of a human conjunctival epithelial cell line (HCjE) grown with all-trans-retinoic acid (RA). The analysis showed that the membrane-associated mucin MUC16 was induced by RA and that secretory phospholipase A2 Group IIA (sPLA2-IIA), the gene most upregulated by RA, was induced earlier. Since eicosanoids, metabolites of arachidonic acid, which is produced by sPLA2 catalysis of membrane phospholipids, have been demonstrated to affect mucin production, we sought to determine if the sPLA2 induction in HCjE cells was associated with RA induction of MUC16.

View SamplesTranscriptome analysis of neural progenitor/stem cells is limited by the lack of a reliable method for cell isolation. We have designed a genetic dual reporter strategy that can allow prospective isolation of cortical neural progenitor cells and their neuronal progeny form the same animals. These cells should be a good cell source for comparative global analysis.

View SamplesThe transcription factor Nkx2.5 is required for specification of pharyngeal arch second heart field (SHF) progenitors that contribute to outflow tract (OFT) and right ventricle (RV) formation. Multiple sets of microarray data were analyzed to identify genes that are candidate targets of Nkx2.5 in the second heart field. These sets are: 1) publicly available data for cardiothoracic tissue from E9.5 Nkx2.5 wild-type, heterozygous and homozygous embryos; 2) an analysis of mouse E10.5 pharyngeal arch tissue; 3) an analysis of mouse E12.5 heart tissue; and 4) a temporal analysis of the cardiogenic cell line P19CL6. This combined analysis identified 11 genes (Lrrn1, Elovl2, Safb, Slc39a6, Khdrbs1, Hoxb4, Fez1, Ccdc117, Jarid2, Nrcam, and Enpp3) expressed in SHF-containing pharyngeal arch tissue whose regulation is dependent on Nkx2.5 expression.
Jarid2 is among a set of genes differentially regulated by Nkx2.5 during outflow tract morphogenesis.

View SamplesPluripotent P19CL6 embryonic carcinoma cells can be differentiated to a cardiac lineage by culture in the presence of DMSO. The goal of this study was to characterize temporal gene expression patterns associated with cardiogenic differentiation. Gene expression analysis was conducted on differentiating P19CL6 cells at several time points following induction with 1% DMSO. Samples were processed for analysis by Affymetrix GeneChip.
