Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Efferent inhibition of cochlear outer hair cells is mediated by nicotinic cholinergic receptors containing alpha9 (a9) and alpha10 subunits. Mice lacking a9 nicotinic subunits fail to exhibit classic olivocochlear responses and are characterized by abnormal synaptic morphology at the base of outer hair cells. To detail molecular changes induced upon the loss of a9 subunit, we sampled cochlear RNA from wild type and a9 null mice at postnatal (P) days spanning periods of synapse formation and maturation (P3, P7, P13 and P60). Our findings point to a delay in cochlear maturation starting at the onset of hearing (P13), as well as an up-regulation of various GABA receptor subunits in adult mice lacking the a9 nicotinic subunit.

Description
Expression profiles in mouse liver exposed to long-term gamma-irradiation were examined to assess in vivo effects of low dose-rate radiation. Three groups of male C57BL/6J mice were exposed to whole body irradiation at dose-rates of 17-20 mGy/day, 0.86-1.0 mGy/day or 0.042-0.050 mGy/day for 401-485 days (cumulative doses were approximately 8 Gy, 0.4 Gy or 0.02 Gy, respectively).

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430A 2.0 Array (mouse430a2)
Description
The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of TSU68, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFR) and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1), on colon cancer liver metastasis and to test the hypothesis that TSU68 modulates the microenvironment in the liver before the formation of metastasis.
Publication Title
TSU68 prevents liver metastasis of colon cancer xenografts by modulating the premetastatic niche.

- Affymetrix Rat Expression 230A Array (rae230a)
Description
The rat pancreatic cell line AR42J is relatively undifferentiated under normal culture conditions. When the glucocorticoid dexamethasone is added to the medium the cells display a dramatic decrease in proliferative rate and are induced to a more exocrine phenotype that includes increased expression of exocrine pancreas products (digestive enzymes) and more developed regulated secretion. We used microarray to determine changes in gene expression comparing control (without dexamethasone) vs induced (plus dexamethasone).

Description
Total RNA was prepared using TRIzol reagent from the pancreata of eight week old male mice. The genotypes were Control: gastrin+/-, CFTR+/+; and CF: gastrin+/-, CFTR-/-. All mice were on 95% black6, 5% 129Sv background. Mice were fed Peptamen from age 10 days to prevent intestinal obstruction.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene that impair function of this cAMP-regulated Cl- channel. In the small intestine, loss of CFTR function creates a dehydrated, acidic luminal environment which is believed to cause an accumulation of mucus, a phenotype characteristic of CF. CF mice have an innate immune response and impaired intestinal transit as well. We investigated whether lubiprostone, which activates the CLC2 Cl- channel, would improve the CF intestinal phenotype.
Publication Title
Lubiprostone ameliorates the cystic fibrosis mouse intestinal phenotype.

Description
The significant changes of hematopoietic cells induced by Xbp1S expression indicate that there is global alteration in gene expression. UPR induces transcription of Xbp1, and phosphorylation of the ER transmembrane kinase IRE1 initiates UPR-mediated mRNA splicing of Xbp1, resulting in the production of Xbp1S, an active form of a basic leucine zipper transcription factor. In the present study, Xbp1S retrovirus vector infected 32cl3 cells show cell cycle arrest and myeloid differentiation. Xbp1S may modulate important genes of differentiation and the cell cycle.

Description
Cleft palate results from a mixture of genetic and environmental factors and occurs when the bilateral palatal shelves fail to fuse. The objective of this study was to search for new genes involved in mouse palate formation. Gene expression of murine embryonic palatal tissue was analyzed at the various developmental stages before, during, and after palate fusion using GeneChip? microarrays. Ceacam1 was one of the highly up-regulated genes during and after fusion in palate formation, and this was confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR. Immunohistochemical staining showed that CEACAM1 was expressed at a very low level in palatal epithelium before fusion, but highly expressed in the midline of the palate during and after fusion. To investigate the developmental role of CEACAM1, function-blocking antibody was added to embryonic mouse palate in organ culture. Palatal fusion was inhibited by this function-blocking antibody. To investigate the subsequent developmental role of CEACAM1, we characterized Ceacam1-deficient (Ceacam1-/-) mice. Epithelial cells persisted abnormally at the midline of the embryonic palate even on day E16.0, and palatal fusion was delayed in Ceacam1-/- mice. TGF?3 expression, apoptosis, and cell proliferation in palatal epithelium were not effected in the palate of Ceacam1-/-mice. CEACAM1 expression was down-regulated in Tgfb3-/- palate. However, exogenous TGF?3 did not induce CEACAM1 expression. These results suggest that CEACAM1 has roles in both the initiation of palate formation via epithelial cell adhesion and TGF signaling has some indirect effect on CEACAM1.

Regulation of the epithelial adhesion molecule CEACAM1 is important for palate formation.
