TNFalpha and IL-6 induced anorexia: effects on serotonin turnover
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 35 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.1 ST Array (mogene11st)

Description

Anorexia can occur as a serious complication of chronic disease. Increasing evidence suggests that inflammation plays a major role, along with a hypothalamic dysregulation characterized by locally elevated serotonin levels. The present study was undertaken to further explore the connections between peripheral inflammation, anorexia and hypothalamic serotonin metabolism and signaling pathways. We studied transcriptomic changes and serotonergic activity in the hypothalamus of mice after an intraperitoneal injection with TNF, IL-6 or a combination of TNF and IL-6.

Description

Conjugates of fatty acids and amines, including endocannabinoids, are known to play important roles as endogenous signalling molecules. Among these, the ethanolamine conjugate of the n-3 poly unsaturated long chain fatty acid (PUFA) docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3) (DHA) was shown to possess strong anti-inflammatory properties.

Hypothalamic gene expression of appetite regulators in a cancer-cachectic mouse model [Dataset 2]
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 10 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.1 ST Array (mogene11st), Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)

Description

Appetite is frequently affected in cancer patients, leading to anorexia and consequently insufficient food intake. In this study, we report on hypothalamic gene expression profile of a cancer cachectic mouse model with increased food intake. In this model, mice bearing C26 colon adenocarcinoma have an increased food intake subsequently to the loss of body weight. We hypothesize that in this model, appetite regulating systems in the hypothalamus, which apparently fail in anorexia, are still able to adapt adequately to changes in energy balance. Therefore studying the changes that occur on appetite regulators in the hypothalamus might reveal targets for treatment of cancer-induced eating disorders. By applying transcriptomics, many appetite regulating systems in the hypothalamus could be taken into account, providing an overview of changes that occur in the hypothalamus during tumour growth. We show that hypothalamic expression of orexigenic neuropeptides NPY and AgRP was higher, whereas expression of anorexigenic genes CCK and POMC were lower in TB compared to controls. In addition, serotonin and dopamine signalling pathways were found to be significantly altered in TB mice. Serotonin levels in brain showed to be lower in TB mice compared to control mice, while dopamine levels did not change. Moreover, serotonin levels inversely correlated with food intake. Transcriptomic analysis of the hypothalamus of cachectic TB mice with an increased food intake showed changes in NPY, AgRP and serotonin signalling. Serotonin levels in the brain showed to correlate with changes in food intake. Targeting these systems seems a promising strategy to avoid the development of cancer-induced eating disorders.

Detailed localisation of diet-induced changes in gene expression in the murine small intestine.
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 114 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.1 ST Array (mogene11st)

Description

An increasing amount of evidence suggests that the small intestine may play an important role in the development of metabolic diseases, such as obesity and insulin resistance. The small intestine provides the first barrier between diet and the body. As a result, dysregulation of biological processes and secretion of signal molecules from the small intestine may be of importance in the regulation and dysregulation of whole body metabolic homeostasis. Changes in gene expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism, cell cycle and immune response may contribute to the aetiology of diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance. In the current study we present a detailed investigation on the effects a chow diet, low fat diet and high fat diet on gene expression along the proximal-to-distal axis of the murine small intestine. The reported results provide a knowledge base for upcoming studies on the role of the small intestine in the aetiology of diet-induced diseases.

Progression of ductal carcinoma in situ to invasive breast cancer
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 44 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array [transcript (gene) version (huex10st)

Description

Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a precursor lesion that can give rise to invasive breast cancer (IBC). It has been proposed that both the nature of the lesion and the tumor microenvironment play key roles in progression to IBC. Here, laser capture microdissected tissue samples from epithelium and stroma in normal breast, pure DCIS, and pure IBC were employed to define key gene expression profiles associated with disease progression.

Publication Title

Progression of ductal carcinoma in situ to invasive breast cancer is associated with gene expression programs of EMT and myoepithelia.

RB pathway deregulation promotes invasion and disease progression in a mouse model of MYC-overexpressing mammary tumorigenesis
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 15 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)

Description

Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease that is categorized into distinct tumor subtypes based on specific molecular attributes, which ultimately influence therapeutic options. Unlike ER+ and/or HER2+ cancers that are subject to specific targeted therapies, triple negative breast cancers (TNBCs) do not express these receptors, which leaves patients with limited treatment options. Thus, significant focus has been placed on identifying molecular attributes of basal-like disease that could be used to develop and/or direct novel treatment regimens. Activation of MYC signaling and inactivation of the RB-pathway are frequent events in many types of human cancers. These pathways influence many biological processes, such as cell proliferation, that contribute to the aggressiveness and therapeutic response of tumors. The current study examines the interaction of the MYC and RB pathways in mammary epithelial cell tumorigenesis.

  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)

Description

The LXCXE peptide motif facilitates interaction between the RB tumor suppressor and a large number of cellular proteins that are expected to impinge on diverse biological processes. In vitro and in vivo analyses demonstrated that LXCXE-binding function is dispensable for RB promoter association and control of basal gene expression. Dependence on this function of RB is unmasked after DNA damage, wherein LXCXE-binding is essential for exerting control over E2F3 and suppressing cell cycle progression in the presence of genotoxic stress. Gene expression profiling revealed that the transcriptional program coordinated by this specific aspect of RB is associated with progression of human hepatocellular carcinoma and poor disease outcome. Consistent with these findings, biological challenge revealed a requirement for LXCXE-binding in suppression of genotoxin-initiated hepatocellular carcinoma in vivo. Together, these studies establish an essential role of the LXCXE-binding motif for RB-mediated transcriptional control, response to genotoxic insult, and tumor suppression.

Publication Title

RB restricts DNA damage-initiated tumorigenesis through an LXCXE-dependent mechanism of transcriptional control.
