Affymetrix Mouse Expression 430A Array (moe430a)
Description
We used microarrays to investigate gene expression changes in the pancreas of RasGrf1 KO mice. These animals have a reduction in the number and size of the pancreatic islets which lead to lower levels of insulin and glucagon in their blood.
Publication Title
Transcriptional profiling reveals functional links between RasGrf1 and Pttg1 in pancreatic beta cells.

Description
In this study we determine the transcriptional profile by RNAseq of mESC in the absence of Smad1 and Smad5 and in subpopulation of mESC with different levels of BMP-SMAD activation. Overall design: Transcriptome analysis using RNAseq was performed on 3 biological replicates of BRE negative and positive mESC subpopulations, which were collected in pairs at 3 different times. Transcriptome analysis using RNAseq was performed on Smad1/5 floxed (FL) and knockout (KO) mESC. Two different parental cell lines were used. For each parental cell line we analyzed one Smad1/5 FL sample and two Smad1/5 KO samples, resulting in respectively two and four biological replicates for the FL and KO conditions.

Description
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most frequent form of secondary arterial hypertension. Mutations in different genes increase aldosterone production in PA, but additional mechanisms may contribute to increased cell proliferation and aldosterone producing adenoma (APA) development. We performed transcriptome analysis in APA and identified retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARα) signaling as a central molecular network involved in nodule formation. To understand how RARα modulates adrenal structure and function, we explored the adrenal phenotype of male and female Rarα knockout mice. Inactivation of Rarα in mice led to major structural disorganization of the adrenal cortex in both sexes, with increased adrenal cortex size in female mice and increased cell proliferation in males. Abnormalities of vessel architecture and extracellular matrix were due to decreased Vegfa expression and modifications in extracellular matrix components. On the molecular level, Rarα inactivation leads to inhibition of non-canonical Wnt signaling, without affecting the canonical Wnt pathway nor PKA signaling. Our study suggests that Rarα contributes to the maintenance of normal adrenal cortex structure and cell proliferation, by modulating Wnt signaling. Dysregulation of this interaction may contribute to abnormal cell proliferation, creating a propitious environment for the emergence of specific driver mutations in PA.

Description
Oxidative stress in adipose tissue and liver has been linked to the development of obesity. NADPH oxidases (NOX) enzymes are a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The current study was designed to determine if NOX2-generated ROS play a role in development of obesity and metabolic syndrome after high fat feeding. Wild type (WT) mice and mice lacking the cytosolic NOX2 activated protein p47phox (P47KO) were fed AIN-93G diets or high fat diets (HFD) containing 45% fat and 0.5% cholesterol for 13 weeks from weaning. Affymetrix array analysis revealed dramatically less expression of mRNA of genes linked to energy metabolism, adipocyte differentiation (PPAR, Runx2) and fatty acid uptake (CD36, lipoprotein lipase) in fat pads from female HFD-P47KO mice compared to HFD-WT females. These data suggest that NOX2 is an important regulator of metabolic homeostasis and that NOX2-associated ROS plays an important role in development of diet-induced obesity particularly in the female

Female mice lacking p47phox have altered adipose tissue gene expression and are protected against high fat-induced obesity.

Description
The E2F family consists of transcriptional repressors and activators that control cell proliferation. In the classic paradigm of cell cycle regulation, the three activators, E2F1, E2F2 and E2F3, are invariably depicted as the final components of a CDK/Rb signaling cascade that executes the transcriptional program necessary to commit cells to enter S phase.
Publication Title
Cell proliferation in the absence of E2F1-3.

Description
Carcinoma development in colorectal cancer (CRC) is driven by genetic alterations in numerous signaling pathways. Alterations in the RAS-ERK1/2 pathway are associated with the shortest overall survival for patients after diagnosis of CRC metastatic disease, but how RAS-ERK signaling regulates CRC metastasis is still unknown.
