Description
The perinatal period and early infancy are considered critical periods for lung development, and adversities during this period are believed to impact lung health in adulthood.The main factors affecting postnatal lung development and growth include environmental exposures, cigarette smoking, (viral) infections, allergic sensitization, and asthma.Therefore, we hypothesized that concomitant exposure in the early postnatal period in mice would cause more profound alterations in lung alveolarization and growth in adult life, quantified by stereology, and differently modulate lung inflammation and gene expression than either insult alone.Five-day-old male mice were immunized intraperitoneally (i.p.) with 10 µg of ovalbumin (OVA). This procedure was repeated at the 7th day of life, animals from the control group received i.p. injection of PBS only. Mice were exposed to either ambient PM2.5 or filtered air from the 5th to the 39th day of life, using an ambient particle concentrator developed at the Harvard School of Public Health (HAPC).Total RNA of lung samples (n=3 animals per group) was extracted using RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany), according to manufacturer's instructions. The microarray analysis was performed using three RNA samples for each studied group (Control, OVA, PM2.5, OVA+PM2.5), totalizing 12 samples. One hundred nanograms of total RNA was amplified with the Ambion WT Expression Kit and hybridized onto the GeneChip Mouse Gene 2.0 ST Array (Thermo Scientific, Massachusetts, USA), following manufacturer’s protocol. The comparison between the control and OVA group exhibit 32 DEGs (28 up-regulated and 4 down-regulated), between the control and PM2.5 group had 6 DEGs (4 up and 2 down) and between the control and OVA+PM2.5 group had 5 DEGs (4 up and 1 down). The comparison between OVA and PM2.5 group showed 97 DEGS (22 up and 75 down) and between OVA and OVA+PM2.5 group had 7 DEGs (4 up and 3 down). Finally, the comparison between the PM2.5 and OVA+PM2.5 group exhibit 34 DEGs (2 up and 32 down).Our experimental data provide pathological support for the hypothesis that either allergic or environmental insults in early life have permanent adverse consequences to lung growth. In addition, combined insults were associated with the development of a COPD-like phenotype in young adult mice.

Description
The human and mouse aryl hydrocarbon receptor (hAHR and mAHRb) share limited (58%) transactivation domain sequence identity. Compared to the mAHRb allele, the hAHR displays 10-fold lower relative affinity for prototypical ligands such as 2,3,7,8 tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). However, in previous studies we have demonstrated that the hAHR can display a higher relative ligand binding affinity than the mAHRb for specific AHR ligands such as indirubin. Each receptor has also been shown to differentially recruit LXXLL co-activator-motif proteins and to utilize different TAD subdomains in gene transactivation. Using hepatocytes isolated from C57BL6/J mice (Ahrb/b) and AHRTtr transgenic mice which express hAHR protein specifically in hepatocytes, we investigated whether the hAHR and mAHRb differentially regulate genes. Microarray and quantitative-PCR analysis of Ahrb/b and AHRTtr primary-mouse hepatocytes treated with 10 nM TCDD revealed that a number of established AHR target genes such as Cyp1a1 and Cyp1b1 are significantly induced by both receptors. Remarkably, of the 1752 genes induced by mAHRb and 1186 genes induced by hAHR, only 265 genes (<10%) were significantly activated by both receptors in response to TCDD. Conversely of the 1100 and 779 genes significantly repressed in mAHRb and hAHR hepatocytes respectively, only 462 (<25%) genes were significantly repressed by both receptors in response to TCDD treatment. Genes identified as differentially expressed are known to be involved in a number of biological pathways, including cell proliferation and inflammatory response which suggests that compared to the mAHRb, the hAHR may play contrasting roles in TCDD-induced toxicity and endogenous AHR-mediated gene regulation.

Description
Detailed information about stage-specific changes in gene expression is crucial for understanding the gene regulatory networks underlying development and the various signal transduction pathways contributing to morphogenesis. Here, we describe the global gene expression dynamics during early murine limb development, when cartilage, tendons, muscle, joints, vasculature, and nerves are specified and the musculoskeletal system of the limbs is established. We used whole-genome microarrays to identify genes with differential expression at 5 stages of limb development (E9.5 to 13.5), during fore-limb and hind-limb patterning. We found that the onset of limb formation is characterized by an up-regulation of transcription factors, which is followed by a massive activation of genes during E10.5 and E11.5 which tampers off at later time points. Among 3520 genes identified as significantly up-regulated in the limb, we find ~30% to be novel, dramatically expanding the repertoire of candidate genes likely to function in the limb. Hierarchical and stage-specific clustering identified expression profiles that correlate with functional programs during limb development and are likely to provide new insights into specific tissue patterning processes. Here we provide for the first time, a comprehensve analysis of developmentally regulated genes during murine limb development, and provide some novel insights into the expression dynamics governing limb morphogenesis.
