- Affymetrix Rat Expression 230A Array (rae230a)
Description
The carcinogenic potential of chemicals is currently evaluated with rodent life-time bioassays, which are time consuming, and expensive with respect to cost, number of animals and amount of compound required. Since the results of these 2-year bioassays are not known until quite late during development of new chemical entities, and since the short-term test battery to test for genotoxicity, a characteristic of genotoxic carcinogens, is hampered by low specificity, the identification of early biomarkers for carcinogenicity would be a big step forward. Using gene expression profiles from the livers of rats treated up to 14 days with genotoxic and non-genotoxic carcinogens we previously identified characteristic gene expression profiles for these two groups of carcinogens. We have now added expression profiles from further hepatocarcinogens and from non-carcinogens the latter serving as control profiles. We used these profiles to extract biomarkers discriminating genotoxic from non-genotoxic carcinogens and to calculate classifiers based on the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm. These classifiers then predicted a set of independent validation compound profiles with up to 88% accuracy, depending on the marker gene set. We would like to present this study as proof of the concept that a classification of carcinogens based on short-term studies may be feasible.

Description
In this study we performed microarray-based molecular profiling of liver samples from Wistar rats exposed to genotoxic carcinogens (GC), nongenotoxic carcinogens (NGC) or non-hepatocarcinogens (NC) for up to 14 days. In contrast to previous toxicogenomics studies aimed at the inference of molecular signatures for assessing the potential and mode of compound carcinogenicity, we considered multi-level omics data. Besides evaluating the predictive power of signatures observed on individual biological levels, such as mRNA, miRNA and protein expression, we also introduced novel feature representations which capture putative molecular interactions or pathway alterations by integrating expression profiles across platforms interrogating different biological levels.

Description
Hedgehog (Hh) signaling is critical for organogenesis, tissue homeostasis, and stem cell maintenance. Smoothened (SMO), the primary effector of Hh signaling, is expressed ectopically in human breast cancer, as well as in other cancers. Constitutive activation of SMO in mouse mammary glands leads to paracrine stimulation of proliferation, as well as hyperplasia. In canonical signaling, SMO functions via GLI transcription factor activation. However, recent data from Drosophila and mammalian cell lines indicate that SMO can function non-canonically as a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) by coupling to heterotrimeric G proteins, particularly those in the pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive G-alpha-i (Gai) class. Whether SMO functions as a GPCR in mammalian tissues in vivo is not known. Using genetically modified mouse models, we demonstrate here that SMO-induced stimulation of proliferation is PTX sensitive, and requires Gai2, but not Gai1 or Gai3. Our findings provide evidence for a non-canonical GPCR function of activated SMO in vivo, a finding that may have clinical significance given that most SMO-targeted agents were selected based largely on their ability to block canonical GLI-mediated transcription. Overall design: Primary mammary epithelial cell RNA was deep-sequenced from mT-mG/SmoM2;MMTV-Cre (EGFP), mT-mG/SmoM2;MMTV-Cre (tdTomato), and mT-mG/SmoM2;+ cells to examine the effects of SmoM2 overexpression in the mammary gland.

Description
Induced sputum is used to sample inflammatory cells, predominantly neutrophils and macrophages, from the airways of COPD patients. Our aim was to identify candidate genes associated with the degree of airflow obstruction and the extent of emphysema by expression profiling, and then to confirm these findings for selected candidates using specific PCR and protein analysis.
