Affymetrix Rat Gene 2.0 ST Array (ragene20st)
Description
The Shumiya cataract rat (SCR) is a model for hereditary cataract. Two-third of these rats develop lens opacity within 10-11-weeks. Onset of cataract is attributed to the synergetic effect of lanosterol synthase (Lss) and farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase 1 (Fdft1) mutant alleles that lead to cholesterol deficiency in the lenses, which in turn adversely affects lens biology including the growth and differentiation of lens epithelial cells (LECs). Nevertheless, the molecular events and changes in gene expression associated with the onset of lens opacity in SCR is poorly understood.

Description
Ascorbic acid (AA) is a powerful antioxidant and play as a cofactor for various enzymes in vivo. In this study, we investigated the effect of AA depletion on gene expression in the liver and lipid metabolism by using SMP30/GNL knockout (KO) mice which are unable to biosynthesis AA. First, we performed microarray analysis. Briefly, SMP30/GNL KO mice were weaned and divided into two groups; AA-depleted and supplemented groups, which mice were free access to water containing 1.5 g/L AA. After 4 weeks, mRNA was isolated and purified from the liver. In this study, Affymetrix GeneChip was used for microarray analysis. Actually, AA-depletion altered many gene expressions related to lipid metabolism. Especially, Cytochrome P450 7a1 (Cyp7a1), a late-limiting enzyme of bile acid biosynthesis, gene expression was significantly up-regulated. We also confirmed Cyp7a1 protein levels by Western blotting. Next, we investigated the influence of AA depletion on lipid metabolism. We examined the lipid and bile acid levels in the liver, plasma, and gallbladder from SMP30/GNL KO mice. Amount of total bile acid (TBA), free fatty acid (FA), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and phospholipids (PL) were measured by colorimetric method. AA depletion reduced TBA levels in the liver and gallbladder. However, FA, TC, TG, and PL in the plasma and liver were not changed by AA depletion. Although Cyp7a1 gene expression and protein levels were increased by AA depletion, amount of bile acid were reduced. Conclusively, we have shown that AA depletion reduced bile acid biosynthesis and elevated Cyp7a1 gene expression and protein levels. Thus, AA is an essential for bile acid biosynthesis pathway.

Description
We aimed to examine the gene expression changes responding to a depletion of intracellular S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). The mouse plasma cell line X63/0 was treated with the SAM-synthetase inhibitor cycloleucine (cLEU), and the total RNA was isolated and analyzed by RNA-sequencing. As a result, we idntified 27 genes, including the ubiquitous SAM-synthetase MAT2A, whose expssions were up-regulated by two-fold or more. Overall design: Total RNA was extracted from the mouse plasma cell line X63/0 before/after a three-hour treatment with 30 mM cycloleucine. This experiment was triplicated, and the resulting six samples were applied to RNA-sequencing.

Description
Unearthing of silenced genes in colorectal cancer (CRC) is of great importance. We employed oligonucleotide microarray to find changes in global gene expression of five CRC cell lines. These were analyzed before and after treatment with the 5-aza-2'-Deoxycitidine. Expression of the responding genes was integrated with gene expression profiling generated by microarray analysis of matched colorectal tissue samples. Selected candidates were subjected to methylation-specific PCR (MSP) and real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR using CRC cell lines and paired tumor and normal samples from CRC patients. Sixty eight genes were re-expressed after 5-aza-2'-Deoxycitidine treatment and over-expressed in normal colorectal mucosa, including genes that were known to be methylated in CRC. After applying study selection criteria, we identified 16 potential genes. Two candidates were selected (ASPP1 and SCARA5). Among 15 CRC cell lines, methylation was identified in SCARA5 (20%). The methylation status of SCARA5 was subsequently investigated in 23 paired colorectal tissue samples; methylation was detected in 17%, respectively. Observed promoter methylation showed a tendency towards methylation in tumor-derived samples, in SCARA5 gene. Significant down expression of SCARA5 mRNA was observed in CRC cell lines and tumor tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues (P < 0.001 and P = 0.001, respectively). The use of genome-wide screening led to the identification of a group of candidate genes. Among them, SCARA5 was methylated and markedly down-regulated in CRC. SCARA5 gene may have a role in CRC tumorigenesis.
