The transcriptome changes of the ileal mucosa in suckling piglets during early postnatal life were analysed to contribute to the knowledge of a pigs gut development. In addition, the ileal transcriptome of suckling piglets was compared with that of age-matched weaned piglets (weaned at the age of 21 days) to elucidate the effect of weaning on the developing gut.

View SamplesAn alternative promoter of the PGC-1alpha gene gives rise to three new PGC-1alpha isoforms refered to as PGC-1a2 (A2), PGC-1a3 (A3) and PGC-1a4 (A4). The proximal PGC-1 alpha promotor transcribes the canonical PGC-1 alpha which is refered to as PGC-1a1 (A1).G1/G2/G3 samples refer to the Green fluorescent protein (GFP) control samples used in this experiment. Forced expression of the PGC-1a4 isoform results in muslce hypertrophy associated with increased IGF-1 signaling and repression of myostatin signaling.

View SamplesMicroRNAs are small non-coding RNA species, some of which are playing important roles in cell differentiation. However, the level of participations of microRNAs in epithelial cell differentiation is largely unknown. Here, we found that expression levels of four microRNAs (miR-210, miR-338-3p, miR-33a and miR-451) were significantly increased in differentiated stage of T84 cells, compared with undifferentiated stage. Additionally, we demonstrate that miR-338-3p and miR-451 contribute to the formation of epithelial basolateral polarity by facilitating translocalization of beta1 integrin to the basolateral membrane. However, candidate target mRNAs of miR-338-3p and miR-451 and the mechanism behind observed phenomena is uncertain. Then, we performed comprehensive gene expression analysis to identify candidate target mRNAs and understand their mechanisms.

View SamplesIn murine large intestinal lamina propria, CX3CR1high resident Mfs possess anti-inflammatory properties and thereby support intestinal homeostasis. Unlike other tissue-resident Ms, transcription factors that regulate differentiation and function of CX3CR1high Ms in the large intestine are poorly understood. Thus, to identify transcription factors specifically expressed in CX3CR1high Ms among large intestinal lamina propria innate myeloid cells, we comprehensively analyzed the genes expression profiles in CX3CR1high Ms, CX3CR1- CD11b+ CD11c+ cells, CD11b- CD11chigh DCs, and CD11b+CD11c- cells.

View SamplesTo determine the functions of Spi-C in innate immune responses, we investigated the overall gene expression patterns in M-CSF-BMDMFs prepared from Spicflox/flox and Lyz2-cre; Spicflox/flox mice. M-CSF-BMDMFs were stimulated with or without LPS following heme treatment and used for RNA-seq analysis. Overall design: Control and Spic–/– BMDMF pretreated with 40 µM hemin for 18 h were stimulated with (designated 'CNT_4' and 'cKO_4', respectively) or without (designated 'CNT_0' and 'cKO_0', respectively) 100 ng/ml LPS for 4 h.

View SamplesOur previous investigation indicated that high-virulence C. gattii (C. gattii R265) tend to reside in the alveoli, whereas low-virulence C. gattii (C. gattii 5815) tend to be washed out from the alveoli and move into the central side of the respiratory system of the mice. Furthermore, C. gattii R265 and 5815 infected mice showed much lesser macrophage response than C. neoformans H99 infected mice. To elucidate the mechanism of this phenomenon from the viewpoint of genetic analysis, we performed this microarray assay.

View SamplesThe B1 SOX transcription factors SOX1/2/3/19 have been implicated in various processes of early embryogenesis. However, their regulatory functions in stages from the blastula to early neurula remain largely unknown, primarily because loss-of-function studies have not been informative to date. In our present study, we systematically knocked down the B1 sox genes in zebrafish. Only the quadruple knockdown of the four B1 sox genes sox2/3/19a/19b, which are active in the early embryo, resulted in very severe developmental abnormalities, confirming that the B1 sox genes are functionally redundant. We characterized the sox2/3/19a/19b quadruple knockdown embryos in detail by examining the changes in gene expression through microarray analysis as well as in situ hybridization.
