Mouse Ptges3 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Ptges3 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Ptges3 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Ptges3 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_019766 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000071072 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 10. 8 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 8 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000052798). Exon 2~3 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Ptges3 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP24-362F3 as template. Cas9, gRNA and targeting vector will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for cKO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Disruption of gene function results in neonatal lethality, respiratory system abnormalities, as well as skin morphological and physiological defects. Exon 2 starts from about 0.63% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 2~3 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 1 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 9385 bp, and the size of intron 3 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 848 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~1114 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

No significant tandem repeat is found in the dot plot matrix. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis. Overview of the GC Content Distribution Window size: 300 bp Sequence 12 Summary: Full Length(7614bp) | A(25.98% 1978) | C(19.81% 1508) | T(32.28% 2458) | G(21.93% 1670) Note: The sequence of homologous arms and cKO region is analyzed to determine the GC content. No significant high GC-content region is found. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.

  • Supplementary Methods
    Supplementary methods Human lung tissues and tissue microarray (TMA) All human tissues were obtained from the Lung Cancer Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) Tissue Bank at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, TX). A collection of 26 lung adenocarcinomas and 24 non-tumoral paired tissues were snap-frozen and preserved in liquid nitrogen for total RNA extraction. For each tissue sample, the percentage of malignant tissue was calculated and the cellular composition of specimens was determined by histological examination (I.I.W.) following Hematoxylin-Eosin (H&E) staining. All malignant samples retained contained more than 50% tumor cells. Specimens resected from NSCLC stages I-IV patients who had no prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy were used for TMA analysis by immunohistochemistry. Patients who had smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime were defined as smokers. Samples were fixed in formalin, embedded in paraffin, stained with H&E, and reviewed by an experienced pathologist (I.I.W.). The 413 tissue specimens collected from 283 patients included 62 normal bronchial epithelia, 61 bronchial hyperplasias (Hyp), 15 squamous metaplasias (SqM), 9 squamous dysplasias (Dys), 26 carcinomas in situ (CIS), as well as 98 squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and 141 adenocarcinomas. Normal bronchial epithelia, hyperplasia, squamous metaplasia, dysplasia, CIS, and SCC were considered to represent different steps in the development of SCCs. All tumors and lesions were classified according to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2004 criteria. The TMAs were prepared with a manual tissue arrayer (Advanced Tissue Arrayer ATA100, Chemicon International, Temecula, CA) using 1-mm-diameter cores in triplicate for tumors and 1.5 to 2-mm cores for normal epithelial and premalignant lesions.

  • Loss of Hepatic Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Protein in Adrenalectomized Rats Does Not Involve Altered Levels of the Receptor's C
    Loss of hepatic aryl hydrocarbon receptor protein in adrenalectomized rats does not involve altered levels of the receptor’s cytoplasmic chaperones Chunja Lee, Anne K. Mullen Grey, and David S. Riddick Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Medical Sciences Building, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5S 1A8 Corresponding author: David S. Riddick, Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Medical Sciences Building, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5S 1A8 Tel. (416) 978-0813 Fax. (416) 978-6395 E-mail. [email protected] 1 Abstract: The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) plays physiological roles and mediates adaptive and toxic responses to environmental pollutants. Adrenalectomized rats display decreased hepatic AHR protein levels, with no change in mRNA, and selectively impaired induction of cytochrome P450 1B1. This was similar to reported phenotypes for mice with hepatocyte-specific conditional deletion of AHR-interacting protein (AIP), a chaperone protein of the cytoplasmic AHR complex. In the current study, we demonstrated that adrenalectomy (ADX) and acute dexamethasone (DEX) treatment do not alter hepatic AIP mRNA or protein levels. Also, hepatic protein levels of the 90-kDa heat shock protein and p23 were not altered by ADX or acute DEX treatment. These results suggest that the loss of rat hepatic AHR protein following ADX cannot be explained by changes in the levels of the receptor’s cytoplasmic chaperone proteins. Key words: aryl hydrocarbon receptor, adrenalectomy, dexamethasone, aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein, 90-kDa heat shock protein 2 Introduction In addition to playing important roles in development and physiology, the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) also mediates the adaptive and toxic responses to halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as 3-methylcholanthrene (MC).

Schmidt Received: 21 November 2019 / Revised: 19 January 2021 / Accepted: 2 February 2021 © The Author(s) 2021. This article is published with open access Abstract Disturbed activation or regulation of the stress response through the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is a fundamental component of multiple stress-related diseases, including psychiatric, metabolic, and immune disorders. The FK506 binding protein 51 (FKBP5) is a negative regulator of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), the main driver of HPA axis regulation, and FKBP5 polymorphisms have been repeatedly linked to stress-related disorders in humans. However, the fi 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: speci c role of Fkbp5 in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) in shaping HPA axis (re)activity remains to be elucidated. We here demonstrate that the deletion of Fkbp5 in Sim1+ neurons dampens the acute stress response and increases GR sensitivity. In contrast, Fkbp5 overexpression in the PVN results in a chronic HPA axis over-activation, and a PVN-specific rescue of Fkbp5 expression in full Fkbp5 KO mice normalizes the HPA axis phenotype.

Published 18 December 2013 Molecular abnormalities within the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) stress signaling pathway may confer, or reflect, susceptibility to stress in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, but the extent of such abnormalities in the brain is not known. Using RNA-Seq and qPCR in two postmortem cohorts totaling 55 schizophrenia, 34 Correspondence and bipolar disorder and 55 control individuals, we identified increased FKBP5 and PTGES3 mRNA expression, requests for materials and decreased BAG1 mRNA expression, in the prefrontal cortex in schizophrenia cases relative to controls should be addressed to (68.0% [p , 0.001], 26.0% [p , 0.01] and 12.1% [p , 0.05] respectively). We also observed increased FKBP5 and decreased BAG1 mRNA expression in bipolar disorder (47.5% [p , 0.05] and 14.9% [p , 0.005]). D.S. (duncans@mail.

  • Transcriptomic Response of Breast Cancer Cells to Anacardic Acid David J
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Transcriptomic response of breast cancer cells to anacardic acid David J. Schultz1, Abirami Krishna2, Stephany L. Vittitow2, Negin Alizadeh-Rad2, Penn Muluhngwi2, Eric C. Rouchka 3 & Carolyn M. Klinge 2 Received: 5 December 2017 Anacardic acid (AnAc), a potential dietary agent for preventing and treating breast cancer, inhibited Accepted: 10 May 2018 the proliferation of estrogen receptor α (ERα) positive MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 triple negative Published: xx xx xxxx breast cancer cells. To characterize potential regulators of AnAc action, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells were treated for 6 h with purifed AnAc 24:1n5 congener followed by next generation transcriptomic sequencing (RNA-seq) and network analysis. We reported that AnAc-diferentially regulated miRNA transcriptomes in each cell line and now identify AnAc-regulated changes in mRNA and lncRNA transcript expression. In MCF-7 cells, 80 AnAc-responsive genes were identifed, including lncRNA MIR22HG. More AnAc-responsive genes (886) were identifed in MDA-MB-231 cells. Only six genes were commonly altered by AnAc in both cell lines: SCD, INSIG1, and TGM2 were decreased and PDK4, GPR176, and ZBT20 were increased. Modeling of AnAc-induced gene changes suggests that AnAc inhibits monounsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis in both cell lines and increases endoplasmic reticulum stress in MDA-MB-231 cells. Since modeling of downregulated genes implicated NFκB in MCF-7, we confrmed that AnAc inhibited TNFα-induced NFκB reporter activity in MCF-7 cells. These data identify new targets and pathways that may account for AnAc’s anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic activity.
