View Samplesob/ob mice is an obese mice. CIDE family proteins including Cidea, Cideb and Cidec play important role in lipid metabolism. Cidea is mainly expressed in the brown adipose tissue (BAT). Cidec is mainly expressed in the BAT and white adipose tissue (WAT). We generated ob/ob/Cidea-/-/Cidec-/- mice to investigate the phenotype of fat tissue. ob/ob/Cidea-/-/Cidec-/- mice are lean when compared with ob/ob mice. The tissue weight and TAG content of BAT and WAT was extreamly decreased in ob/ob/Cidea-/-/Cidec-/- mice compared with that in ob/ob mice.

View SamplesAortic valve regurgitation (AR) imposes a severe volume overload to the left ventricle (LV) which results in dilation, eccentric hypertrophy and eventually loss of function. Little is known about the impact of AR on LV gene expression. We therefore conducted a gene expression profiling study in the LV of male Wistar rats with chronic (9 months) and severe AR.

View SamplesUsing Affymetrix microarray technology we analyzed the gene expression profiles of the most important pathological categories of bladder cancer in order to detect potential marker genes. Applying an unsupervised cluster algorithm we observed clear differences between tumor and control samples, as well as between superficial and muscle invasive tumors. According to cluster results, the T1 high grade tumor type presented a global genetic profile which could not be distinguished from invasive cases. We described a new measure to classify differentially expressed genes and we compared it against the B-rank statistic as a standard method. According to this new classification method, the biological functions overrepresented in top differentially expressed genes when comparing tumor versus control samples were associated with growth, differentiation, immune system response, communication, cellular matrix and enzyme regulation. Comparing superficial versus invasive samples, the most important overrepresented biological category was growth and, specifically, DNA synthesis and mitotic cytoskeleton. On the other hand, some under expressed genes have been clearly related to muscular tissue contamination in control samples. Finally, we demonstrated that a pool strategy could be a good option to detect the best differentially expressed genes between two compared conditions.
DNA microarray expression profiling of bladder cancer allows identification of noninvasive diagnostic markers.
