View SamplesAnalysis of umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) treated with Egr-3 siRNA under the VEGF treatment for 0,1, and 4 h. Egr-3, a member of early growth response family, is immediately and dramatically induced by VEGF in HUVEC, which regulates expression of many genes related to endothelial activation.
Vascular endothelial growth factor activation of endothelial cells is mediated by early growth response-3.

View SamplesAlthough HSF1 is known to play an important role in regulating the cellular response to proteotoxic stressors, little is known about the structure and function of the HSF1 signaling network under both stressed and unstressed conditions. In this study, we used a combination of chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) microarray analysis and time course gene expression microarray analysis with and without siRNA-mediated inhibition of HSF1 comprehensively identify genes directly and indirectly regulated by HSF1 and examine the structure of the extended HSF1 signaling network. Correlation between promoter binding and gene expression was not significant for all genes bound by HSF1 suggesting that HSF1 binding per se is not sufficient for expression. However, the correlation with promoter binding was significant for genes identified as HSF1-regulated following siRNA knockdown allowing the identification of direct transcriptional targets of HSF1. Among promoters bound by HSF1 following heat shock, a gene ontology (GO) analysis showed significant enrichment only in categories related to protein folding. In contrast, analysis of the extended HSF1 signaling network showed enrichment in a variety of categories related to protein folding, anti-apoptosis, RNA splicing, ubiquitination and others, highlighting a complex transcriptional program directly and indirectly regulated by HSF1.

View SamplesCongenital heart defects (CHDs) occur in 0.51% of live births, yet the underlying genetic etiology remains mostly unknown. Recently, a new source of myocardial cells, namely the second heart field (SHF), was discovered in the splanchnic mesoderm. Abnormal development of the SHF leads to a spectrum of outflow tract defects, such as persistent truncus arteriosus and tetralogy of Fallot. Intracellular Ca2+ signaling is known to be essential formany aspects of heart biology including heart development, but its role in the SHF is uncertain. Here, we analyzed mice deficient for genes encoding inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs), which are intracellular Ca2+ release channels on the endo/sarcoplasmic reticulum that mediate Ca2+ mobilization. Mouse embryos that are double mutant for IP3R type 1 and type 3 (IP3R1/IP3R3/) show hypoplasia of the outflow tract and the right ventricle, reduced expression of specific molecular markers and enhanced apoptosis ofmesodermal cells in the SHF. Gene expression analyses suggest that IP3R-mediated Ca2+ signalingmay involve, at least in part, theMef2CSmyd1 pathway, a transcriptional cascade essential for the SHF. These data reveal that IP3R type 1 and type 3 may play a redundant role in the development of the SHF.

View SamplesTo investigate how the phenotype of macrophages that have engulfed engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) differs from normal macrophages, we conducted Affymetrix microarray studies to identify the gene regulatory pathways affected by the ENPs. To mimic potential occupational exposure scenarios, the experimental design involved pretreatment of mouse primary bone marrow macrophages with the ENPs (25 mg/ml) for 24 hr, followed by removal of residual ENPs and challenging the macrophages with the TLR4 ligand and surrogate bacterial stimulus, lipopolysachharide (LPS) for 4 hr. The 4 hr challenge time was chosen based on preliminary studies which showed many of the proinflammatory gene expression responses peak between 2-6 hr after LPS treatment.
