In this dataset we include the data obtained from 3 hour stimulation with Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC) of bone marrow macrophages(BMDM) from wild type (C57BL/6) and Nod2 knock out mice (in C57BL/6 background).
Activation of NOD receptors by Neisseria gonorrhoeae modulates the innate immune response.

View SamplesDifferent inflammatory stimuli contribute to the formation of atherosclerosis. It is hypothesized that although the end result is the same - plaque formation in arterial vessels - the pathogenesis is dependent on the etiology. In particular, platelets will respond differently depending on the inflammatory stimuli and timepoint.
Specific Inflammatory Stimuli Lead to Distinct Platelet Responses in Mice and Humans.

View SamplesThe goal of this study was to define gene expression profiles in aortic tissue in response to three pro-atherogenic stimuli at two time points. We identified gene expression profiles induced by oral P.gingivalis (Pg), intranasal C. pneumoniae (Cp), and Western diet (WD) at acute (1 day after last infection, Pg, Cp, and control groups) and chronic (9 weeks after last infection, Pg, Cp, and control groups; WD for 9 weeks) time points in aortas of Apolipoprotein E (Apoe-/-) mice. 3 replicates per group were analyzed. RNA was analyzed using Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA).

View SamplesTo investigate the genes differentially expressed upon plating on top of matrixes with different stiffness, we compared the expression profiles of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells plated on a stiff substrate (plastic) with the same cells plated on a soft substrate (hydrogels 0.7 kPa).

View SamplesMutant p53 proteins, resulting from the missense mutations of the TP53 tumor suppressor gene, possess gain-of-function activities and are among the most robust oncoproteins in human tumors. They are potentially important therapeutic targets. No studies to date have distinguished common, therapeutically relevant mutant p53 gain-of-function effects from effects specific to different mutant variants and cell backgrounds. here we performed RNA-seq analysisin MDA-MB-231 (R280K) upon silencing TP53 or the control siRNA. Overall design: MDA-MB-231 (R280K) cell line was transfected with control or p53 siRNA.So The study comprises one experimental cell line,in triplicate.
Proteasome machinery is instrumental in a common gain-of-function program of the p53 missense mutants in cancer.

View SamplesGender dimorphism exists in the physiological response to diet and other environmental factors. Trans-hydrogenated fatty acid (TFA) intake is associated with an increase in coronary heart disease (CHD), and gender differences in the incidence of CHD are well documented. Neonatal administration of Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) causes stunted heart growth and hypoplasticity; and gender dimorphism at the growth hormone axis has been demonstrated in MSG-treated rodents. The identification of gender dimorphism in cardiac nutrigenomics may provide the basis for gender-specific medicine in the future.

View SamplesChronic dietary aspartame may impair rodent insulin tolerance and may affect behavior. Previous studies have shown the aspartame effects may be modulated by developmental NMDA receptor antagonism. Present study was designed to assess effects of aspartame and NMDAR antagonism on components of the HPA axis.

View SamplesThe primary aim of this project was to identify novel factors, in particular the cell-surface protein CD109, which regulate osteoclastogenesis. Microarray analysis was performed comparing two pre-osteoclast cell lines generated from the RAW 264.7 osteoclast cell line: one that has the capacity to fuse forming large multinucleated cells and one that does not fuse. It was found that CD109 was up-regulated by > 17-fold in the osteoclast forming cell line when compared to the cell line that does not fuse.
CD109 plays a role in osteoclastogenesis.
