Inappropriate excess of the steroid hormone aldosterone, which is a mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) agonist, is associated with increased inflammation and risk of cardiovascular disease. MR antagonists are cardioprotective and antiinflammatory in vivo, and evidence suggests that they mediate these effects in part by aldosterone- independent mechanisms.
Myeloid mineralocorticoid receptor controls macrophage polarization and cardiovascular hypertrophy and remodeling in mice.

View SamplesData from tc-, nt- and p-RNA as well as 1 and 2h of actinomycin-D treatment (5g/ml) of NIH-3T3 cells used to determine half-lives. RNA was labeled for 15, 30 or 60 minutes with 4-thiouridine. After preparation of tc-RNA, thiol-labeled RNA was biotinylated using biot-HPDP and subsequently tc-RNA was separated into nt- and p-RNA using streptavidin coated magnetic beads. All three fractions were used for microarray analysis. For actinomycin-D experiments only tc-RNA was used prepared from cell before and 1 an 2h after addition of act-D.

Progression of human bronchioloalveolar carcinoma to invasive adenocarcinoma is modeled in a transgenic mouse model of K-ras-induced lung cancer by loss of the TGF-β type II receptor.

View SamplesRecent data suggests that repression of the Type II TGF-B Receptor (Tgfr2) repression in human lung adenocarcinoma is important for progression from noninvasive to invasive adenocarcinoma. To test this hypothesis in a animal model of non-invasive lung cancer, we generated an inducible, lung specific Tgfbr2 knockout model in the oncogenic Kras mouse.

View SamplesDifferentially expressed genes of CD11b+Gr-1+ immature myeloid cells (IMCs) in the bone marrow and colonic tumor setting of histidine decarboxylase (HDC)-KO mice were examined by microarray (Affymetrix Mouse 430.2 array). Myeloid differentiation-related candidate genes were sought to be isolated and functionally studied.

View SamplesThe purpose was to determine AcP- and AcPb-dependent gene responses to IL-1 by virally-reconstituting AcP-deficient mouse embryonic cortical neurons with CD25 (control), full length AcP, AcPb or the combination of both. A control population was transduced with a CD25-expressing virus. Half the samples were stimulated with IL-1-beta for four hours, RNA was analyzed by microarray.

View SamplesNIH-3T3 cells were pretreated for 15 min with either DMSO (mock) or cycloheximide followed by addition of either mock, 100 U/ml IFNalpha or 100 U/ml IFNgamma for 1h. During the last 30 min, 500 M 4-thiouridine was added to cell culture medium. Total cellular RNA was isolated using Trizol reagent and nascent RNA was purified as described (Dlken et al. RNA 2008) . Three replicates of nascent RNA were analyzed by Affymetrix Mouse Gene ST 1.0 arrays
