View SamplesWe study the effect of nitrogen limitation on the growth and development of poplar roots. We used microarrays to detail the global program of gene expression underlying morphological and developmental changes driven by low nitrogen in the growth media. We report the effect of nitrogen limitation on the growth and development of poplar roots. Low nitrogen concentration led to increased root elongation followed by lateral root proliferation and finally increased root biomass. These morphological responses correlated with high and specific activation of genes encoding regulators of cell cycle and enzymes involved in cell wall biogenesis, growth and remodeling. Comparative analysis of poplar and Arabidopsis root transcriptomes under nitrogen deficiency indicated many similarities and diversification in the response in the two species. A reconstruction of genetic regulatory network (GRN) analysis revealed a sub-network centered on a PtaNAC1-like transcription factor. Consistent with the GRN predictions, root-specific upregulation of PtaNAC1 in transgenic poplar plants increased root biomass and led to significant changes in the expression of the connected genes specifically under low nitrogen. PtaNAC1 and its regulatory miR164 showed inverse expression profiles during response to LN, suggesting of a micro RNA mediated attenuation of PtaNAC1 transcript abundance in response to nitrogen deprivation.

View SamplesThis study aims at a comprehensive understanding of the genomic program activated during early-phase of collateral vessel growth in a rat model for cerebral adaptive arteriogenesis (3-VO). While arteriogenesis constitutes a promising therapeutic concept for cerebrovascular ischemia, genomic profiles essential for therapeutic target identification were analysed solely for collateral arteries of the heart and periphery. Despite challenging anatomical conditions of the brain the 3-VO model allows identification of differentially expressed genes during adaptive cerebral arteriogenesis by selective removal of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA).
Induction of cerebral arteriogenesis leads to early-phase expression of protease inhibitors in growing collaterals of the brain.

View SamplesAdministration of exogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been shown to improve the recovery from acute kidney injury (AKI). It has been suggested that the beneficial effect of MSCs is related to the paracrine release of factors favouring proliferation of intrinsic epithelial cells survived to injury rather than to their trans-differentiation. However the factors involved remain to be determined. In the present study we demonstrated that microvesicles (MVs) derived from human bone marrow MSCs are able to stimulate in vitro proliferation and apoptosis resistance of tubular epithelial cells (TEC). In addition, MVs were found to accelerate in vivo the morphological and functional recovery of glycerol induced AKI in SCID mice by inducing TEC proliferation. The effect of MVs on the recovery of AKI was comparable to that of human MSC treatment. In vitro we found that the CD44 and beta1-integrin-dependent incorporation of MVs in TEC was required for their biological action. However, despite their internalization, RNase-treated MVs failed to induce in vitro apoptosis resistance and TEC proliferation, and in vivo recovery from AKI, suggesting an RNA-dependent biological effect. Microarray analysis and quantitative RT-PCR of MV-RNA extract indicated that MVs were shuttling a specific subset of cellular mRNA, such as mRNA associated with the mesenchymal differentiative phenotype and with several cell functions involved in the control of transcription, proliferation, apoptosis and cell immune regulation. These results suggest that MVs derived from MSCs may activate a proliferative program in TEC survived to injury in AKI by an horizontal transfer of mRNA.
