View SamplesDrought is an important environmental factor affecting plant growth and biomass production. Despite this importance little is known on the molecular mechanisms regulating plant growth under water limiting conditions. The main goal of this work was to investigate, using a combination of growth and molecular profiling techniques, how stress arrests CELl proliferation in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves upon osmotic stress imposition.

View SamplesDrought is an important environmental factor affecting plant growth and biomass production. Despite this importance, little is known on the molecular mechanisms regulating plant growth under water limiting conditions. The main goal of this work was to investigate, using a combination of growth and molecular profiling techniques, how Arabidopsis thaliana leaves adapt their growth to prolonged mild osmotic stress. Fully proliferating, expanding and mature leaves were harvested from plants grown on plates without (control) or with 25mM mannitol (osmotic stress) and compared to seedlings at stage 1.03.

View SamplesWe sequenced mRNA from 12 samples extracted from mouse amygdala tissue to generate the first amygdala-specific murine transcriptome for germ-free mice (GF), conventionally raised controls (CON) and germ-free mice that have been colonized with normal microbiota from postnatal day 21 (exGF). Overall design: Equal amounts of RNA from two to three animals were pooled to yield 4 samples per group (CON, GF, and exGF). Pairwise comparisons for CONvsGF, CONvsexGF, GFvsexGF were performed using DESeq2.

View SamplesThe lack of accurate in vitro assays for predicting in vivo toxicity of chemicals together with new legislations demanding replacement and reduction of animal testing has triggered the development of alternative methods. This study aimed at developing a transcriptomics-based in vitro prediction assay for in vivo genotoxicity. The transcriptomics changes induced in the human liver cell line HepG2 by 34 compounds after treatment for 12h, 24h and 48h were used for the selection of gene-sets that can discriminate between in vivo genotoxins (GTX) and in vivo non-genotoxins (NGTX). By combining publicly available results for these chemicals from standard in vitro genotoxicity studies with transcriptomics, we developed several prediction models. These models were validated by means of an additional set of 28 chemicals.

View SamplesUnderstanding toxicity pathways of engineered nanomaterials (ENM) has recently been brought forward as a key step in 21st century ENM risk assessment. Molecular mechanisms linked to phenotypic end points is a step towards the development of toxicity tests based on key events, which may allow for grouping of ENM according to their mechanisms of action. This study identified molecular mechanisms underlying mitochondrial dysfunction in human bronchial epithelial BEAS 2B cells following exposure to one of the most studied multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs; Mitsui-7). Asbestos was used as a positive control and a non-carcinogenic glass wool material was included as a negative fibre control. Decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was observed for MWCNTs at a biologically relevant dose (0.25 g/cm2) and for asbestos at 2 g/cm2, but not for glass wool. Extensive temporal transcriptomic and microRNA expression analyses identified a 330-gene signature related to MWCNT- and asbestos-induced MMP. Fourty-nine of the MMP-associated genes showed highly similar expression patterns over time (six time points) and the majority was found to be regulated by two transcription factors strongly involved in mitochondrial homeostasis, APP and NRF1. In addition, four miRNAs were associated with MMP and one of them, miR-1275, was found to negatively correlate with a large part of the MMP-associated genes. Cellular processes such as gluconeogenesis, glucose metabolism, mitochondrial LC-fatty acid -oxidation and spindle microtubule function were enriched among the MMP-associated genes and miRNAs. These results are expected to be useful in the identification of key events in ENM-related toxicity pathways for the development of molecular screening techniques.
