Description
Aims: Hypertension poses a significant challenge to vasculature homeostasis and stands as the most common cardiovascular disease in the world. Its effects are especially profound on vasculature-lining endothelial cells that are directly exposed to the effects of excess pressure. Here, we characterize the in vivo transcriptomic response of cardiac endothelial cells to hypertension using the spontaneous hypertension mouse model BPH/2J. Methods and results: Verification of defective endothelial function in the BPH/2J hypertensive mouse strain was followed by acute isolation of cardiac endothelial cells and transcriptional profiling using RNA sequencing. Gene profiles from normotensive BPN/3J mice were compared to hypertensive animals. We observed over 3000 transcriptional differences between groups including pathways consistent with the cardiac fibrosis found in hypertensive animals. Importantly, many of the fibrosis-linked genes also differ between juvenile pre-hypertensive and adult hypertensive BPH/2J mice, suggesting that these transcriptional differences are hypertension-related. We also show that blood pressure normalization with amlodipine resulted in a subset of genes reversing their expression pattern, supporting the hypertension-dependency of altered gene expression. Yet, other transcripts were recalcitrant to therapeutic intervention illuminating the possibility that hypertension may irreversibly alter some endothelial transcriptional patterns. Conclusions: Hypertension has a profound effect on both function and transcription of endothelial cells, the latter of which was only partially restored with normalization of blood pressure. This study represents one of the first to quantify how endothelial cells are reprogrammed at the molecular level in cardiovascular pathology and advances our understanding of the transcriptional events associated with endothelial dysfunction. Overall design: Endothelium from hypertensive mice were acutely extracted at two different ages (4 weeks and 22 weeks) and compared to endothelium from 22 week old normotensive mice.

Affymetrix Porcine Genome Array (porcine)
Description
Previous results from a genome scan in a F2 Iberian by Meishan intercross showed several chromosome regions associated with litter size traits. In order to identify candidate genes underlying these QTL we have performed an ovary gene expression analysis during pregnancy. F2 sows were ranked by their estimated breeding values for prolificacy, the six sows with higher EBV (HIGH prolificacy) and the six with lower EBV (LOW prolificacy) were selected. Samples were hybridized to Affymetrix porcine expression microarrays. The statistical analysis with a mixed-model approach identified 221 differentially expressed probes, representing 189 genes. These genes were functionally annotated in order to identify the genetic pathways overrepresented. Among the most represented functional groups the first one was immune system response activation against external stimulus. The second group was made up of genes which regulate the maternal homeostasis by complement and coagulation cascades. The last group was involved on lipid and fatty acid enzymes of metabolic processes, which participate in steroidogenesis pathway. In order to identify powerful candidate genes for prolificacy, the second approach of this study was merging microarray data with position information of QTL affecting litter size, previously detected in the same experimental cross. According to this, we have identified 27 differentially expressed genes co-localized with QTL for litter size traits, which fulfill the biological, positional and functional criteria.

Description
To assess the effect of different forms of TL1A within different organs of the mouse we generated 2 different transgenic mouse lines where TL1A was expressed under the control of the CD2 promoter. 2 forms of TL1A was used. Either WT TL1A, which led to over expression of both membrane bound and soluble forms of TL1A (Refered to as Mem+Sol) or TL1A Delta 69-93 which only overexpressed membrane restricted TL1A (Refered to as Mem). Lungs and terminal ileums were taken from Either Mem, Mem+sol or WT litermate control mice at 12 weeks of age and the transcriptome assessed using RNAseq Through this we demonstrated enrichment of different transcripts and pathways both dependent on and independent of the form of TL1A and the site of action. This study is also the first to use RNASeq to assess the resualt of overexpression of TL1A within the mouse. Overall design: Poly-A purified mRNA profiles from the Ileum and Lung of Mem, Mem+Sol and WT mice generated using Illumina based RNASeq

Description
Mutations in PfCRT confer chloroquine (CQ) resistance in P. falciparum. Point mutations in the homolog of the mammalian multidrug resistance gene (pfmdr1) can also modulate the levels of CQ response. However, parasites with the same pfcrt and pfmdr1 alleles exhibit a wide range of drug sensitivity, suggesting that additional genes contribute to levels of CQ resistance (CQR).
