Illumina HiSeq 2500
Description
Environmental enrichment (EE) replicates mind-body therapy by providing complex housing to laboratory animals to improve their activity levels, behavior and social interactions. Using a Tcf4Het/+ ApcMin/+-mediated model of colon tumorigenesis, we found that EE vastly improved the survival of tumor-bearing animals, with differential effect on tumor load in male compared to female animals. Analysis of Tcf4Het/+ ApcMin/+ males showed drastically reduced expression of circulating inflammatory cytokines and induced nuclear hormone receptor signaling, both of which are common in the wound repair process. Interestingly, EE provoked tumor wound repair resolution through revascularization, plasma cell recruitment and IgA secretion, replacement of glandular tumor structures with pericytes in a process reminiscent of scarring, and normalization of microbiota. These EE-dependent changes likely underlie the profound improvement in survival of colon-tumor-bearing Tcf4Het/+ ApcMin/+ males. Our studies highlight the exciting promise of EE in the design of future therapeutic strategies for colon cancer patients. Overall design: Four samples from EE and NE (non-enriched controls) were analyzed

Description
These experiments were designed to detect transcript (mRNA) changes in whole circulating blood in animals exposed to D-amphetamine under neurotoxic and non-neurotoxic conditions, or subjected to elevated environmental temperatures that produced a hyperthermia very similar to heat stroke. The study objectives were: 1) to detect transcript changes in blood due to life-threatening hyperthermia produced by elevated environmental temperatures (39°C, produces no or minimal neurotoxicity); 2) detect transcripts that could serve as biomarkers specific for neurotoxic amphetamine exposures and not seen with environmentally-induced hyperthermia; and 3) determine the transcript changes related to the immune system in circulating blood produced by either non-neurotoxic or neurotoxic amphetamine exposures. Amphetamine effects on gene expression are dependent on body temperature and indicate that many significant changes in genes related to the immune system occur, some likely in response to damage, even when animals remain normothermic during amphetamine exposure. Also, hyperthermia alone produces many changes in immune related genes in blood Overall design: Five groups of animals were necessary to meet the study objectives. All groups were given 4 injections of either normal saline or amphetamine, and the injections were sequentially given with 2 h between each injection. Dosing started at 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. The groups are: 1) normothermic controls given normal saline in a 22.5°C environment; 2) controls given normal saline in a 16°C environment (also remained normothermic); 3) environmentally-induced hyperthermia given saline in a 39°C environment; 4) non-neurotoxic amphetamine given in a 16°C environment and 5) neurotoxic amphetamine group given amphetamine in a 22.5°C environment. Note the the saline controls (normothermic data) is contained in a separate but linked GEO file GSE62368

- Affymetrix Rat Genome U34 Array (rgu34a)
Description
Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is the most common medically refractory epilepsy syndrome; kainic acid (KA) induced seizures have been studied as a MTLE model as limbic seizures produced by systemic injections of KA result in a distinctive pattern of neurodegeneration in the hippocampus that resembles human hippocampal sclerosis. In our "2-hit" seizure model, animals subjected to seizures during week 2 of life become more susceptible to seizures later in life and sustain extensive hippocampal neuronal injury after second KA seizures in adulthood. Using high-density oligonucleotide gene arrays, we began to elucidate the molecular basis of this priming effect of early-life seizures and of the age-specific neuroprotection against seizure-induced neuronal injury. We seek to identify target genes for epileptogenesis and cell death by selecting transcripts that are differentially regulated at various times in the P15 and P30 hippocampus.

Description
Early childhood convulsions have been correlated with hippocampal neuron loss in patients with intractable temporal lobe epilepsy. Using a "two-hit" rat seizure model, we have shown that animals subjected to kainate (KA)- or hypoxia-induced seizures during early postnatal period showed no cell death, yet sustained more extensive neuronal death after second seizures in adulthood. An early life seizure, without causing overt cellular injury, predisposes the brain to the damaging effect of seizures in later life. Cellular and molecular changes that accompany early seizures and that lead to subsequent epileptogenesis and increased susceptibility to seizure-induced neuronal injury, however, remain poorly understood. We propose to investigate age-specific, time-dependent changes in gene expression that may underlie this priming effect of early-life seizures.

Description
The study recapitulates, through in vitro micropatterned co-cultures, interactions between HIV-infected T-lymphocytes and intestinal epithelial cells in order to investigate the mechanisms underlying the disruption of normal epithelial cell and barrier function during HIV infection. The co-culture method simplifies observation/monitoring of the two cell types and is particularly suited for laser microdissection-based retrieval of the epithelial cells for downstream gene expressions studies.

- Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (rat2302)
Description
Test compound one, 5,6-benzoflavone (BNF), was known to act through both the Ah receptor and Nrf2 receptor pathways, while test compounds two and three, 3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione (D3T) and 4-methyl-5-pyrazinyl-3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione (OLT), were known to act through the Nrf2 receptor pathway. Furthermore, D3T is known to be more potent and efficacious than OLT for Nrf2 activation. OLT has been shown to exhibit 20-50% of the efficacy of D3T for inhibition of alfatoxin-induced heptic foci. Nonetheless, because OLT is an approved drug, it is currently being evaluated in human phase II intervention trials of biomarkers of alfatoxin-related hepatocellular carcinoma. More recently, BNF was shown to be an effective chemopreventive agent in the rat mammary carcinogen model, inhibiting 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene DNA adduct formation in liver and mammary cells by 96 and 83% respectively.
