The role of the renin-angiotensin system in chronic kidney disease involves multiple peptides and receptors. Exerting antipodal pathophysiological mechanisms, renin inhibition and AT1 antagonism ameliorate renal damage.

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.

View SamplesZebrafish have the remarkable ability to regenerate body parts including the heart, spinal cord and fins by a process referred to as epimorphic regeneration. Recent studies have illustrated that similar to adult zebrafish, early life stage-larvae also possess the ability to regenerate the caudal fin. A comparative genomic analysis was used to determine the degree of conservation in gene expression among the regenerating adult caudal fin, adult heart and larval fin. Results indicate that these tissues respond to amputation/injury with strikingly similar genomic responses. Comparative analysis revealed raldh2, a rate-limiting enzyme for the synthesis of Retinoic acid (RA), as one of the highly induced genes across the three regeneration platforms.
Comparative expression profiling reveals an essential role for raldh2 in epimorphic regeneration.

View SamplesBeyond the DNA sequence difference between humans and closely related apes, there are large differences in the environments that these species experience. One prominent example for this is diet. The human diet diverges from those of other primates in various aspects, such as having a high calorie and protein content, as well as being cooked. Here, we used a laboratory mouse model to identify gene expression differences related to dietary differences.
Human and chimpanzee gene expression differences replicated in mice fed different diets.
