FMRP stalls ribosomal translocation on mRNAs linked to synaptic function and autism.

View SamplesThe Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein, FMRP, is thought to regulate the translation of a specific set of neuronal mRNAs on polyribosomes. Therefore, we prepared polyribosomes on sucrose gradients and purified mRNA specifically from these fractions, as well as the total mRNA levels, to determine whether a set of mRNAs might be changed in its % association with polyribosomes in the absence of FMRP in the KO mouse model.

View SamplesHere we characterize and optimize both systems to increase their utility for preclinical studies. We show that TH-MYCN mice develop tumors in the paraspinal ganglia, but not in the adrenal, with cellular and gene expression patterns similar to human NB. In addition, we present a new ultrasound guided, non-invasive orthotopic xenograft method. This injection technique is rapid, provides accurate targeting of the injected cells and leads to efficient engraftment. We also demonstrate that tumors can be detected, monitored and quantified prior to visualization using ultrasound, MRI and bioluminescence. Finally we develop and test a standard of care chemotherapy regimen. This protocol, which is based on current treatments for neuroblastoma, provides a baseline for comparison of new therapeutic agents.

View SamplesTo investigate the role of YAP/TAZ as factors able to convert differentiated cells into stem cells of the same tissue, we compared the expression profiles of mammary organoids (yOrg) obtained by doxycycline-inducible expression of YAP in luminal differentiated mammary cells with original luminal differentiated mammary cells (Lum) and organoids from native mammary stem cells (Org).

View SamplesThis study describes a cDNA microarray analysis that compared developing mouse MyoD-/- limb musculature (MyoD-dependent, innervated by Lateral Motor Column motor neurons) and Myf5-/- back (epaxial) musculature (Myf5-dependent, innervated by Medial Motor Column motor neurons) to the control and to each other, at embryonic day 13.5 which coincides with the robust programmed cell death of motor neurons and the inability of myogenesis to undergo its normal progression in the absence of Myf5 and MyoD that at this embryonic day cannot substitute for each other.

Integrative genomic signatures of hepatocellular carcinoma derived from nonalcoholic Fatty liver disease.

View SamplesLiver global gene expression patterns of 9 GNMT-knockout mice histopathologically determined to have non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) together with 10 MAT1A-knockout mice histopathologically determined to have steatosis and NASH. All these have their respective wild type patterns. These were analyzed to define signatures to study the pathogenesis of NAFLD-derived HCC, explore which subtypes of cancers can be investigated using mouse models and define a signature of HCC differential survival that can be used to characterize HCC subtypes of different survival derived from mixed etiologies.
