Description
cJun is a transcription factor activated by phosphorylation by SAPK/JNK MAP kinase pathway that has been linked to atherosclerosis. Adenovirus mediated gene transfer of a dominant negative form of cJun in C57BL/6 mice increased greatly the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) mRNA and plasma apoE levels and induced dyslipidmia, characterized by increased plasma cholesterol, triglyceride and VLDL levels and accumulation of discoidal HDL particles. Unexpectedly, infection of ApoE-/- mice with adenovirus expressing dn-cJun reduced by 50% plasma cholesterol, suggesting that the dn-cJun affected other genes that control plamsa cholesterol. To determine the molecular pathways implicated in this process we performed whole genome expression profiling using total RNA from the liver of infected ApoE-/- mice.

Description
The metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by the presence of metabolic abnormalities that include abdominal obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, increased blood glucose/insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia and increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The ApoE*3Leiden.human Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (ApoE3L.CETP) mouse model manifests several features of the MetS upon high fat diet (HFD) feeding. Moreover, the physiological changes in the white adipose tissue (WAT) contribute to MetS comorbidities. The aim of this study was to identify transcriptomic signatures in the gonadal WAT of ApoE3L.CETP mice in discrete stages of diet-induced MetS.
Publication Title
Transcriptome analysis of the adipose tissue in a mouse model of metabolic syndrome identifies gene signatures related to disease pathogenesis.

Description
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) plays an essential role in regulating calcium and bone homeostasis in the adult, but whether PTH is required at all for regulating fetal-placental mineral homeostasis is uncertain. To address this we treated Pth-null mice in utero with 1 nmol PTH (1-84) or saline and examined placental calcium transfer 90 minutes later. It was found that placental calcium transfer increased in Pth-null fetuses treated with PTH as compared to Pth-null fetuses treated with saline. Subsequently, to determine the effect of PTH treatment on placental gene expression, in a separate experiment, 90 minutes after the fetal injections the placentas were removed for subsequent RNA extraction and microarray analysis.

Description
Glucocorticoids remain the most widely used class of anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive agents. They act primarily by binding to the glucocorticoid receptor, resulting in direct and indirect effects on gene expression. The current understanding of glucocorticoid effects on transcription in human cells is based mostly on studies of cancer cell lines, immortalized cell lines, or highly mixed populations of primary cells (such as peripheral blood mononuclear cells). To advance the understanding of the transcriptome-wide effects of glucocorticoids on highly pure populations of primary human cells, we performed RNA-seq on nine such cell populations at two time points after in vitro exposure to methylprednisolone or vehicle. Overall design: Nine cell types were studied: four hematopoietic (circulating B cells, CD4+ T cells, monocytes, and neutrophils) and five non-hematopoietic (endothelial cells, fibroblasts, myoblasts, osteoblasts, and preadipocytes). Each cell type was obtained from a separate cohort of 4 unrelated healthy human donors (4 biological replicates per cell type: BR1 - BR4). Cells form each donor were independently cultured and exposed in vitro to glucocorticoid or vehicle. Non-hematopoietic cells were incubated until the early plateau phase of growth, then exposed to methylprednisolone or vehicle. Hematopoietic cells were collected from peripheral blood, purified by magnetic selection (negative selection for B cells, CD4+ T cells and neutrophils; positive selection for monocytes). Purified B cells, CD4+ T cells, and monocytes were incubated overnight, then exposed to methylprednisolone or vehicle. Purified neutrophils were cultured for 4 hours, then exposed to methylprednisolone or vehicle. Ethanol was used as a vehicle for methylprednisolone. Estimated final concentrations were 8500 mcg/L (22.7 mcM) for methylprednisolone and 0.07% (15.57 mM) for ethanol (vehicle). For each cell type, samples were collected at two time points after treatment with methylprednisolone or vehicle: 2 hours and 6 hours. Samples were collected into TRIzol reagent and frozen at -80°C prior to RNA extraction. RNA-seq data for all samples is made available in this GEO Series.
