Description
In this study we used microarrays to examine relative genes expression within the aorta of ApoE-/- infused with angiotensin II in relation to aneurysm formation. Infusion of angiotensin II induces aortic dilatation particularly of the suprarenal aorta in ApoE-/- mice. Based on studies carried out in our and other laboratories the response to angiotensin II is variable, with some mice developing large aneurysms but other animals appearing resistant to aneurysm formation with aortic diameters similar to that of saline controls. We compared RNA expression from whole aortas of 17 week old male ApoE-/- mice exposed to angiotensin II (1.44 g/kg/min) for 4 weeks where there was clear evidence of aortic aneurysm formation (n=5) with that of mice failing to develop aneurysms (n=7) and those exposed to saline infusion (n=6). AAA was defined as diameter of suprarenal aorta greated than 1.5mm measured on photographs of aortas at necroscopy.

Description
Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes severe bone loss and disrupts connections between higher centers in the central nervous system (CNS) and bone. Muscle contraction elicited by functional electrical stimulation (FES) partially protects against loss of bone but cellular and molecular events by which this occurs are unknown. Here, using a rat model, we characterized effects of 7 days of contraction-induced loading of tibia and fibula due to FES when begun 16 weeks after SCI. SCI reduced tibial and femoral BMD by 12-17% and promoted bone resorption, as indicated by increased serum CTX; SCI-related changes in CTX were reversed by FES. In cultures of bone marrow cell-derived cells, SCI increased the number of osteoclasts and mRNA levels of the several osteoclast differentiation markers; these changes were significantly reversed by FES. The number of osteoblasts was also reduced by SCI as was the ratio of OPG/RANKL mRNAs therein; the unfavorable change in OPG/RANKL ratio was partially reversed by FES. cDNA microarray analysis revealed that alterations in genes involved in signaling through Wnt, FSH/LH, PTH and calcineurin/NFAT pathways may be linked to the favorable action of FES on SCI-induced bone resorption. In particular, SCI increased levels of the Wnt inhibitors DKK1, sFRP2 and SOST in osteoblasts, These effects were completely or partially reversed by FES. Our results demonstrate an anti-bone resorptive activity of acute FES in bone loss after SCI and suggest potential underlying mechanisms, among them involving increased Wnt signaling to cause more favorable ratios of OPG and RANKL for the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. The present study indicates that the effects of bone reloading on SCI- related bone remodeling occurred independently of the effects of higher CNS centers on bone.
