CTSK-mGFP positive cells from Day 6 old mouse femurs were sorted as single cells into 384 well plates pre-loaded with unique barcoded RT-primers. After sorting, cells were snap frozen on dry ice before being submitted to the New York Genome Center (NYGC) for cDNA synthesis and library preparation. The FACS profile for all the sored cells were collected to co-relate with gene expression. Overall design: Mouse femur was obtained from mice within the same litter. Femur samples was subjected to collagenase digestion, and single cell suspension was obtained. The samples were stained for FACS antibodies and single cell sorting was performed into two individual 384 well plates. The experiment has two replicates from two independant animals. The samples were always kept discrete.

View SamplesFollowing myocardial infarction, the prognosis for females is better than males. Estrogen is thought to be protective, but clinical trials with hormone replacement failed to show protection. Here, we sought to identify novel mechanisms that might explain this sex-based difference. By diverging from the traditional focus on sex hormones, we employed a conceptually novel approach to this question by using a non-biased approach to measure global changes in gene expression following infarction.

View Samples-chloroprene (2-chloro-1,3-butadiene), a monomer used in the production of neoprene elastomers, is of regulatory interest due to the production of multi-organ tumors in mouse and rat cancer bioassays. A significant increase in female mouse lung tumors was observed at the lowest exposure concentration of 12.8 ppm while a small, but not statistically significant, increase was observed in female rats only at the highest exposure concentration of 80 ppm. The metabolism of chloroprene results in the generation of reactive epoxides and the rate of overall chloroprene metabolism is highly species dependent. To identify potential key events in the mode-of-action of chloroprene lung tumorigenesis, dose response and time course gene expression microarray measurements were made in the lungs of female mice and female rats. The gene expression changes were analyzed using both a traditional analysis of variance approach followed by pathway enrichment analysis and a pathway-based benchmark dose (BMD) analysis approach. Pathways related to glutathione biosynthesis and metabolism were the primary pathways consistent with cross-species differences in tumor incidence and transcriptional BMD values for the pathway were more similar to differences in tumor response than were estimated target tissue dose surrogates based on the total amount of chloroprene metabolized per unit mass of lung tissue per day. The closer correspondence of the transcriptional changes with the tumor response are likely due to their reflection of the overall balance between metabolic activation and detoxication reactions whereas the current tissue dose surrogate reflects only oxidative metabolism.

View SamplesEnhanced understanding of differential gene expression and biological pathways associated with distinct phases of intramembranous bone regeneration following femoral marrow ablation surgery will improve future advancements regarding osseointegration of joint replacement implants, biomaterials design, and bone tissue engineering. A rat femoral marrow ablation model was performed and genome-wide microarray data were obtained from samples at 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 28, and 56 days post-ablation, with intact bones serving as controls at Day 0. Bayesian model-based clustering produced eight distinct groups amongst 9,062 significant gene probe sets based on similar temporal expression profiles, which were further categorized into three major temporal classes of increased, variable, and decreased expression. Differential biological processes and pathways associated with each major temporal group were identified, and significantly expressed genes involved were visually represented by heat maps. It was determined that the increased expression group exclusively contains genes involved in pathways for matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), Wnt signaling, TGF- signaling, and inflammatory pathway. Only the variable expression group contains genes associated with glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, Notch Signaling Pathway, natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity, and B cell receptor signaling pathway, among others. The decreased group exclusively consists of genes involved in heme biosynthesis, p53 signaling pathway, and hematopoietic cell lineage. Significant biological pathways and transcription factors expressed at each time point post-ablation were also identified.

View SamplesMicroarrays have been widely used for the analysis of gene expression and several commercial platforms are available. The combined use of multiple platforms can overcome the inherent biases of each approach, and may represent an alternative that is complementary to RT-PCR for identification of the more robust changes in gene expression profiles.
