Description
Scope: As a result of population ageing, the number of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients has rapidly increased. There are many hypothesises on the pathogenesis of AD, but its detailed molecular mechanism is still unknown, and so no effective preventive or therapeutic measures have been established. Some reports showed a decrease in levels of norepinephrine (NE) has been suspected to be involved in the decline of cognitive function in AD patients and NE concentrations were decreased in postmortem AD patient brains. Tyr-Trp was identified as being the most effective dipeptide in enhancing norepinephrine (NE) synthesis and metabolism. And Tyr-Trp treatment ameliorated the short-term memory dysfunction in AD model mice caused by amyloid beta (Aβ) 25-35. So, the purpose of this study was to investigate the preventive or/and protective effects of Tyr-Trp administration in AD model mice.

Description
Purpose: We investigated the tetrachloroethylene associated changes in kidney transcriptomes among healthy mice, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease mice, and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis mice. Overall design: Male C57BL/6J mice were fed a low-fat diet (4% fat), high-fat diet (31% fat), or methionine/choline/folate deficient diet. Following an 8-week diet, mice were administered either a single dose of tetrachloroethylene (PERC, 300 mg/kg/d in 5% Alkamuls-EL620 in saline, 5 mL/kg) and euthanized at 24 hours post dose, or five consecutive daily doses of PERC or vehicle (n=8/diet/treatment) and euthanized at 4hours post dose. The harvested kidneys were subjected to mRNA sequencing using Illumina Hiseq 2500. Jac-NASH-063 was excluded from analysis because it did not have a good yield.

Description
High fat diets are known to be a risk factor for prostate cancer. In this study, we investigated the effect of high fat diet on mouse prostate gene expression. C57BL/6J mice were fed either a control or high fat diet for 12 weeks. Microarray analyses were performed on mouse ventral prostate (VP) and dorsolateral prostate (DLP), followed by canonical pathway analysis and regulatory network identification. mRNA changes were confirmed by real time PCR. Approximately 2,125, and 1,194 genes responded significantly to the high fat diet in VP, DLP, respectively. Pathways and networks related to oxidative stress, glutathione metabolism, NRF-mediated oxidative stress response and NF-kappaB were all differentially regulated by high fat diet. GPx3 mRNA levels were decreased by approximately 2-fold by high fat diet in all 3 prostate lobes. In human non-transformed prostate cells (PrSC, PrEC and BPH-1), cholesterol loading decreased GPx3 expression, and increased H2O2 levels of culture medium. Troglitazone increased GPx3 expression in 3 normal prostate cells, and decreased H2O2 levels. In addition, troglitazone attenuated cholesterol-induced H2O2 increase. Tissue from prostate cancer biopsies had decreased GPx3 mRNA and its level was inversely related to the Gleason score.

Description
D-3-Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (Phgdh; EC 1.1.1.95) is a necessary enzyme for de novo L-serine biosynthesis via the phosphorylated pathway. We demonstrated previously that Phgdh is expressed exclusively by neuroepithelium and radial glia in developing mouse brain and later mainly by astrocytes. Mutations in the human PHGDH gene cause serine deficiency disorders (SDD) associated with severe neurological symptoms such as congenital microcephaly, psychomotor retardation, and intractable seizures. We recently demonstrated that genetically engineered mice, in which the gene for Phgdh has been disrupted, have significantly decreased levels of serine and glycine, and exhibit malformation of brain such as microcephaly. The Phgdh null (KO) embryos exhibit lethal phenotype after gestational day 14, indicating that the phosphorylated pathway is essential for embryogenesis, especially for brain development. It is worth noting that the Phgdh knockout (KO) embryos primarily displayed microcephaly, which is the most conspicuous phenotype of patients with SDD. Thus, Phgdh KO mice are a useful animal model for studying the effect of diminished L-serine levels on development of the central nervous system and other organs. To better understand the mechanism underlying the molecular pathogenesis of SDD, we sought to examine whether gene expression is altered in the Phgdh KO mouse model. We identify genes that have altered expression in the head of the Phgdh KO embryos using the GeneChip array. Some of the genes identified by this method belong in functional categories that are relevant to the biochemical and morphological aberrations of the Phgdh deletion.

Description
We report the effect of NAFLD on liver gene expression changes that could impact tetrachloroethhylene metabolism Methods: We fed male C57Bl/6J mice a base diet (BD), high fat (HFD), or methionine/choline/folate deficient high fat diet (MCD) for 8 weeks and then treated them with vehicle or tetrachloroethylene (PERC, 300 mg/kg ig). We only report "basal" differences herein (aka vehicle-treated). Results: We report that there were diet-specific differences in xenobiotic metabolizing genes, and that these genes may be responsible for NAFLD-induced disruption in PERC metabolism Overall design: Examination of liver left lobe gene expression for 3 different diets fed to C57Bl/6J male mice

Description
Objective: Adult Stills disease (ASD) is a systemic disorder of unknown etiology characterized by high spiking fever, rash and arthritis. The purpose of this study was to determine the pathogenic roles of specific genes in ASD. Methods: Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were examined by DNA microarray and validated by quantitative PCR using monocytes isolated from patients with active-ASD, inactive-ASD and healthy controls. The correlation between validated DEGs and ASD activity was analyzed. After inflammasome activation with LPS and Nigericin, the production of IL-1, IL-18, inflammasome and autophagy related proteins in DEGs-overexpressing THP-1 cells was carried out by ELISA or western blotting. DEGs-overexpressing THP-1 cells were treated with an inhibitor of autophagy followed by assessment of IL-1 and IL-18 production by ELISA and western blotting method.Conclusions: The overexpression of PLAC8 in monocytes might play a regulatory role in the production of IL-1 and IL-18 by the enhancement of autophagy, resulting in the suppression of ASD. Results:A total of 68 genes were highly expressed in monocytes isolated from active-ASD patients, relative to their expression in inactive-ASD patients and healthy controls. After validation of expression of 13 genes (CLU, FCGR1B, PLAC8, TLR1, S100A12, CD55, PIM1, BCL2A1, SOD2, PLSCR1, CYP1B1, STEAP4, IL1RN), the expression of PLAC8 was significantly higher in active-ASD patients than the other groups. In ASD, PLAC8 expression level correlated with serum levels of CRP, ferritin and IL-18. Stimulation of monocytes with lipopolysaccharide resulted in PLAC8 upregulation. LPS or Nigericin stimulation of PLAC8-overexpressing THP-1, but not THP-1 cells< was associated with significant decrease in IL-1 and IL-18 production. PLAC8 overexpressing in THP-1 cells was associated with enhanced autophagy and suppression of IL-1 and IL-18 production. Conclusions: PLAC8 upregulation in monocytes seemed to play a regulatory role in the production of IL-1 and IL-18 through enhanced autophagy, resulting in suppression of ASD. The results highlight the role of PLAC8 in the pathogenesis of ASD and suggest its potential suitability as a therapeutic target in ASD.

Description
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a heterogeneous disease with a variety of etiological factors, and ranks as the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide due to multifocal recurrence. Comprehensive molecular evaluation of HCC by multiplatform analysis defined three major subtypes: (1) mitogenic and stem cell-like tumors with chromosomal instability; (2) CTNNB1-mutated tumors displaying DNA hypermethylation; and (3) metabolic syndrome-associated tumors, which included an immunogenic subgroup characterized by macrophage infiltration and favorable prognosis. Although genomic and epigenomic analysis explicitly discriminated HCC with intrahepatic metastasis (IM) from multicentric HCC (MC), the phenotypic similarity between the primary and recurrent tumors was not linked to the IM/MC diagnosis, but rather the integrated classification. Thus, identification of these HCC subtypes provides insights into patient stratification and opportunities for therapeutic development.
