We have previously identified two loci, Ity2 and Ity3, that control survival to Salmonella infection in the wild-derived inbred MOLF/Ei mouse using a (C57BL/6J 3 MOLF/ Ei)F2cross. We validated the existence of these two loci by creating congenic mice carrying each quan- titative trait locus (QTL) in isolation. Subcongenic mice generated for each locus allowed us to define the critical intervals underlying Ity2 and Ity3. Furthermore, expression profiling was carried out with the aim of identifying differentially expressed genes within the critical intervals as potential candidate genes. Genomewide expression arrays were used to interrogate expression differences in the Ity2 congenics, leading to the identification of a new candidate gene (Havcr2, hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 2). Interval-specific oligonucleotide arrays were created for Ity3, identifying one potential candidate gene (Chi3l1, chitinase 3-like 1) to be pursued further. -

In this work we present a comprehensive study of quantitative anomalies at chromosome 17 by genomic array- most attention (6–10). Furthermore, DNA microarray studies have comparative genomic hybridization and of associated RNA expression revealed additional candidates, with some located outside current changes by cDNA arrays. We built a genomic array covering the entire regions of gains, thus suggesting the existence of additional amplicons chromosome at an average density of 1 clone per 0.5 Mb, and patterns of on 17q (8, 9). gains and losses were characterized in 30 breast cancer cell lines and 22 Our previous loss of heterozygosity mapping data pointed to the primary tumors. -

Lesson-1 Composition of Blood and Normal Erythropoiesis
Composition of Blood and Normal Erythropoiesis MODULE Hematology and Blood Bank Technique 1 COMPOSITION OF BLOOD AND Notes NORMAL ERYTHROPOIESIS 1.1 INTRODUCTION Blood consists of a fluid component- plasma, and a cellular component comprising of red cells, leucocytes and platelets, each of them with distinct morphology and a specific function. Erythrocytes or red cells are biconcave discs. They do not have a nucleus and are filled with hemoglobin which carries oxygen to tissues and carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs. Platelets are small cells. They also do not have a nucleus and are essential for clotting of blood. Leucocytes play an important role in fighting against infection. All these cells arise from a single cell called as the Hematopoietic stem cell. The process of formation of these cells is called Hematopoiesis. In this lesson we will learn the different stages in the development of red cells. The process of formation of red cells is called erythropoiesis. OBJECTIVES After reading this lesson, you will be able to: z explain the composition of blood z describe various stages in the formation of red cells z explain the precautions in handling blood and blood products z explain steps for preventing injury from sharp items. 1.2 SITES OF HEMATOPOIESIS It begins in the early prenatal period, within the first two weeks, in the yolk sac in the form of blood islands and is known as primitive hematopoiesis. The red cells formed at this time are nucleated and contain embryonic type of hemoglobin which differs in the type of globin chains from the adult hemoglobin. -

Nucleated Red Blood Cells
Erythropoiesis Nucleated red blood cells Proerythroblast Physiology The red cell line develops from a pluripotent stem cell. With adults under physiological conditions, this development takes place exclusively in the bone marrow.

Size 14 – 18 μm. Nucleus-cytoplasm ratio (N:C ratio) 80 %. Chromatin slightly clumped with one or more prominent nucleoli, slightly more dense than that of a myeloblast. Cytoplasm dark blue, agranular, often with perinuclear halo, which repesents the Golgi apparatus. Erythroblast Smaller than the proerythroblasts. Nuclear chromatin heterogeneous with condensed or clumped DNA. Generally erythroblasts (E) are separated into three maturation stages. Similarities: decrease in cell and nucleus size, chromatin more and more unevenly distributed and darker stained. Differences: colour of the cytoplasm changing from blue (RNA) to red (haemoglobin). By this colour, erythroblasts are divided into basophilic E (blue), N:C ratio 70 – 80 %, polychromatic E (mixed colour: blue-grey/red), N:C ratio 30 – 50 %, and orthochromatic E (pink-orange), N:C ratio approx. 30 %.
