Description
The NAT enzymes are polymorphic xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes that catalyze the transfer of an acetyl moiety from acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) to the nitrogen or oxygen atom of primary arylamines, hydrazines, and their N-hydroxylated metabolites. NATs therefore play an important role in the detoxification and/or activation of arylamine drugs and carcinogens. The involvement of acetyl-CoA in energy metabolism suggests that there may be relationships between NAT activity and energy metabolism. Previous studies have suggested a role for NAT2 in insulin sensitivity that is exacerbated on high fat diet, using Nat1 knockout mice. To study mice with no NAT activity at all, we used a Nat1/Nat2 double-KO model, with animals fed either a regular chow or high fat/high sugar diet for 12 weeks. Analysis of basal parameters suggested a decrease in fatty-acid oxidation and hepatic gluconeogenesis. To further evaluate the cause of this, RNA was isolated and processed using Affymetrix Mouse Gene 2.0 microarrays.

Description
Arterial occlusive diseases are major causes of morbidity and mortality. Blood flow to the affected tissue must be restored quickly if viability and function are to be preserved. Collaterals are artery-to-artery or arteriole-to-arteriole interconnections that can bypass an occlusion by providing an alternative route for blood flow to the affected tissue. The increased flow and sheer stress initiate processes that result in the remodeling (arteriogenesis) of these vessels into efficient conductance arteries. Here we report that the mixed-lineage kinase (MLK) pathway activates cJun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) in endothelial cells. Disruption of Mlk2/3 or Jnk1/2 genes caused severe blockade of blood flow and failure to recover in the femoral artery ligation model of hindlimb ischemia because of abnormal collateral arteries. We show that the MLK-JNK pathway is essential for patterning and maturation of collateral arteries during development, but this pathway is not required for angiogenesis or arteriogenesis in adults. JNK in endothelial cells promotes Delta-like 4-induced Notch signaling and suppresses excessive sprouting angiogenesis during development. This function of the MLK-JNK pathway contributes to normal formation of native collateral arteries. The MLK-JNK pathway is therefore a key regulatory mechanism for vascular development. These data highlight the crucial importance of the collateral circulation in the response to arterial occlusive diseases. Overall design: RNA-seq analysis of mouse lung endothelial cells (MLEC) of the following genotypes Cdh5-Cre+ Jnk1+/+ Jnk2+/+ Jnk3-/-(ECtrl), Cdh5-Cre- Jnk1LoxP/LoxP Jnk2LoxP/LoxP Jnk3-/- (EfCtrl), and Cdh5-Cre+ Jnk1LoxP/LoxP Jnk2LoxP/LoxP Jnk3-/- (E3KO). Three separate samples from mouse lung endothelial cells of each genotype were analyzed.

Description
Retinal damage causes proliferation of Muller glia, but the degree of proliferation depends on mouse strains. Muller glial proliferation was significantly promoted by the addition of GSK3 inhibitor in 129, but not in B6. We used retinal explant culture as a model for retinal damage which caused preferential photoreceptor death in a few days.

Proliferation potential of Müller glia after retinal damage varies between mouse strains.

Description
Vitamin A is the only known compound that produces spontaneous fractures in rats. In an effort to resolve the molecular mechanism behind this effect, we fed young rats high doses of vitamin A and performed a global transcriptional analysis of diaphyseal bone after one week, i.e. just before the first fractures appeared. Microarray gene expression analysis revealed that 68 transcripts were differentially expressed in hypervitaminotic cortical bone and 118 transcripts were found when the bone marrow was also included. 98% of the differentially expressed genes in the bone marrow sample were up-regulated. In contrast, hypervitaminotic cortical bone without marrow showed reduced expression of 37% of differentially expressed genes. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis revealed that only samples containing bone marrow were associated to a GO term, which principally represented extracellular matrix (ECM). This is consistent with the histological findings of increased endosteal bone formation. Four of the genes in this ECM cluster and four other genes, including Cyp26b1 which is known to be up-regulated by vitamin A, were selected and verified by real-time PCR. In addition, immunohistochemical staining of bone sections confirmed that the bone-specific molecule, osteoadherin (Omd) was up-regulated. Further analysis of the major gene expression changes revealed distinct differences between cortical bone and bone marrow, e.g. there appeared to be augmented Wnt signaling in the bone marrow but reduced Wnt signaling in cortical bone. Moreover, induced expression of hypoxia-associated genes was only found in samples containing bone marrow. Together, these results corroborate our previous observations of compartment-specific effects of vitamin A, with reduced periosteal but increased endosteal bone formation, and suggest important roles for Wnt signaling and hypoxia in the processes leading to spontaneous fractures.
