Affymetrix Rat Genome U34 Array (rgu34a)
Description
Summary: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a damage to the spinal cord induced by trauma or desease resulting in a loss of mobility or feeling. SCI is characterized by a primary mechanical injury followed by a secondary injury in which several molecular events are altered in the spinal cord often resulting in loss of neuronal function.

Summary: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a damage to the spinal cord induced by trauma or disease resulting in a loss of mobility or feeling. SCI is characterized by a primary mechanical injury followed by a secondary injury in which several molecular events are altered in the spinal cord often resulting in loss of neuronal function. Analysis of the areas directly (spinal cord) and indirectly (raphe and sensorimotor cortex) affected by injury will help understanding mechanisms of SCI.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133A Array (hgu133a)
Description
Summary: Genetic disorders of muscle cause muscular dystrophy, and are some of the most common inborn errors of metabolism. Muscle also rapidly remodels in response to training and innervation. Muscle weakness and wasting is important in such conditions as aging, critical care medicine, space flight, and diabetes. Finally, muscle can also be used to investigate systemic defects, and the compensatory mechansisms invoked by cells to overcome biochemical and genetic abnormalities. Here, we provide a 13 group data set for comparative profiling of human skeletal muscle. Groups studied are: Normal human skeletal muscle, Acute quadriplegic myopathy (AQM; critical care myopathy), Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM), Amyotophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), spastic paraplegia (SPG4; spastin), Fascioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), Emery Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (both X linked recessive emerin form; autosomal dominant Lamin A/C form), Becker muscular dystrophy (partial loss of dystrophin), Duchenne muscular dystrophy (complete loss of dystrophin), Calpain 3 (LGMD2A), dysferlin (LGMD2B), FKRP (glycosylation defect; homozygous for a missense mutation). U133A and U133B microarrays are both available.

Description
This project is based on the hygiene hypothesis that exposure to TB provides a protective mechanism against asthma through specific cytokines and the balance of Th1, Th2 cells. Additionally, expression changes are examined in patients with and without atopy in combination with asthma and PPD status. Expression levels were evaluated in CD4+ cells isolated from peripheral blood of 30 patients. Each patient was evaluated on the entire U133 Affymetrix GeneChip set.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Skeletal muscle adapts to exercise training of various modes, intensities and durations with a programmed gene expression response. This study dissects the independent and combined effects of exercise mode, intensity and duration to identify which exercise has the most positive effects on skeletal muscle health. Full details on exercise groups can be found in: Kraus et al Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2001 Oct;33(10):1774-84 and Bateman et al Am J Cardiol. 2011 Sep 15;108(6):838-44.
Publication Title
Metabolite signatures of exercise training in human skeletal muscle relate to mitochondrial remodelling and cardiometabolic fitness.

Description
The goals and objectives: To study Type 2 diabetes progression and the development of insulin resistance in two animal models with and without a high fat diet superimposed on these models. Background: Diabetes is a systemic metabolic imbalance involving multiple tissues/organs, and an early hallmark feature of this disease state is insulin resistance. Multifactorial interactions of genetics, prenatal environmental factors (fetal programming) and postnatal environmental factors (nutrition and activity) likely contribute to the diabetic phenotype.Animal models can serve as a valuable tool for studying diabetes disease progression and for identifying useful biomarkers of type 2 diabetes. Several inbred rodent models are available for diabetes related studies. The GK rat is an obvious choice among available inbred models as the genetic basis for this inheritable form of diabetes is polygenic (5), unlike most other inbred rodent models that exhibit single gene defects. Many of the characteristics of the GK rat mirror human diabetes (hyperglycemia, glucose intolerance, insulin resistance), although hyperlipidemia does not appear to be prominent in the GK rat. Due to its polygenic mode of inheritance and 100% penetrance, the GK rat may be a useful model for human diabetes. Induced animal models can also be useful in diabetes studies. One such model is metabolic syndrome resulting from experimentally induced fetal programming (produced by maternal malnutrition or by exposure to corticosteroids in the third trimester). Both in humans and animals, accumulating evidence suggests that alterations in the human fetal environment can result in permanent physiologic changes that manifest as increased incidence of adult onset pathology. Numerous epidemiological studies have forged a strong link between low birth weight and the development of metabolic syndrome in adulthood. From such observations has arisen the concept of fetal programming whereby exposure to some factor(s) during crucial stages in development can permanently alter or reset physiologic/metabolic functions. In the rat, exposure to corticosteroids during a window in third trimester gestation (CS programming) results in fetal growth retardation and insulin resistance in adult offspring. Genetic factors play a primarily role in the etiology of diabetes in the GK rat, whereas fetal environmental factors are causative in CS programming. (It should be noted that although altered fetal environmental effects, most likely stemming from maternal hyperglycemia, have been implicated to play some role in the decreased pancreatic B cell mass in GK rats, these effects occur earlier in gestation and therefore differ from programming by CS in late gestation.) A comparison of the development of insulin resistance in the GK rat with development in the CS programmed rat will provide insight into genetic and fetal environmental factors in disease development. Superimposing dietary alterations (i.e., high fat feeding) (11) on both animal models may aid in the dissection of multiple interacting factors (genetic, fetal environmental factors, postnatal environmental factors) on the development and progression of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Such studies may also aid in the identification of useful biomarkers for insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes in humans.
