Description
Histone deacetylases (Hdac) remove acetyl groups from proteins, influencing global and specific gene expression. Hdacs control inflammation, as shown by Hdac inhibitor-dependent protection from DSS-induced murine colitis. While tissue-specific Hdac knockouts show redundant and specific functions, little is known of their intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) role. We have shown previously that dual Hdac1/Hdac2 IEC-specific loss disrupts cell proliferation and determination, with decreased secretory cell numbers and altered barrier function. We thus investigated how compound Hdac1/Hdac2 or Hdac2 IEC-specific deficiency alters the inflammatory response. Floxed Hdac1 and Hdac2 and villin-Cre mice were interbred. Compound Hdac1/Hdac2 IEC-deficient mice showed chronic basal inflammation, with increased basal Disease Activity Index (DAI) and deregulated Reg gene colonic expression. DSS-treated dual Hdac1/Hdac2 IEC-deficient mice displayed increased DAI, histological score, intestinal permeability and inflammatory gene expression. In contrast to double knockouts, Hdac2 IEC-specific loss did not affect IEC determination and growth, nor result in chronic inflammation. However, Hdac2 disruption protected against DSS colitis, as shown by decreased DAI, intestinal permeability and caspase-3 cleavage. Hdac2 IEC-specific deficient mice displayed increased expression of IEC gene subsets, such as colonic antimicrobial Reg3b and Reg3g mRNAs, and decreased expression of immune cell function-related genes. Our data show that Hdac1 and Hdac2 are essential IEC homeostasis regulators. IEC-specific Hdac1 and Hdac2 may act as epigenetic sensors and transmitters of environmental cues and regulate IEC-mediated mucosal homeostatic and inflammatory responses. Different levels of IEC Hdac activity may lead to positive or negative outcomes on intestinal homeostasis during inflammation

The 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D metabolite (24R,25D) has long been suspected of participating to bone fracture repair. We used Cyp24a1-deficient mice, unable to produce 24R25D, to observe gene expression in callus tissue compared to that of control littermates.
Publication Title
Optimal bone fracture repair requires 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and its effector molecule FAM57B2.

Description
The oocytes of B6.Y(TIR) sex-reversed female mouse mature in culture but fail to develop after fertilization because of their cytoplasmic defects. To identify the defective components, we compared the gene expression profiles between the fully-grown oocytes of B6.Y(TIR) (XY) females and those of their XX littermates by cDNA microarray. 173 genes were found to be higher and 485 genes were lower in XY oocytes than in XX oocytes by at least 2-fold. We compared the transcript levels of selected genes by RT-PCR in XY and XX oocytes, as well as in XO oocytes missing paternal X-chromosomes. All genes tested showed comparable transcript levels between XX and XO oocytes, indicating that mRNA accumulation is well adjusted in XO oocytes. By contrast, in addition to Y-encoded genes, many genes showed significantly different transcript levels in XY oocytes. We speculate that the presence of the Y-chromosome, rather than the absence of the second X-chromosome, caused dramatic changes in the gene expression profile in the XY fully-grown oocyte.

Quercetin is a food component that may ameliorate the diabetic symptoms. We examined hepatic gene expression of BALB/c mice with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes to elucidate the mechanism of the protective effect of dietary quercetin on diabetes-associated liver injury.

Description
To determine the effect of consumption of a quercetin-rich diet on obesity and dysregulated hepatic gene expression, C56BL/6J mice were fed for 20 weeks on control or a Western diet high in fat, cholesterol and sucrose, both with or without 0.05% quercetin. Chronic dietary intake of quercetin reduced body weight gain and visceral and liver fat accumulation, and improved hyperglyceamia, hyperinsulinaemia, dyslipidaemia in mice fed a Western-style diet.

To elucidate the bioactive property of the dietary antioxidant curcumin, we examined tissue distribution and the gene expression- and lipidomic-profiles in epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT) of the diet-induced obese mice. Dietary intake of curcumin (0.1% W/W) didnt affect the eWAT weight and the plasma lipid levels but reduced the levels of lipid peroxidation marker in eWAT. Curcumin was a slightly accumulated in eWAT and altered the gene expression associated with eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (EIF2) signaling. Curcumin suppressed the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-related eIF2 phospholyration, the accumulation of macrophages and the expression of oxidative stress-sensitive transcription factor NF-B p65 and leptin, whereas anti-inflammatory effect wasnt enough to reduce the TNF- and IFN- levels. Lipidomic- and gene expression analysis suggests that curcumin reduced the contents of some diacylglyverols (DAGs) and DAG derived glycerophospholipids by suppressing the expressions of lipogenesis-related glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 1 and lipolysis-related adipose triglyceride lipase.

Description
Erg is an ETS family transcription factor frequently overexpressed in human leukemias and has been implicated as a key regulator of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). However how Erg controls normal hematopoiesis, particularly at the stem cell level, remains poorly understood. Using homologous recombination, we generated an Erg knockdown allele (Ergkd) in which Erg expression can be restored upon Cre-mediated excision of a Stopper cassette. In Ergkd/+ mice, ~40% reduction in Erg dosage perturbed both fetal liver and bone marrow hematopoiesis by reducing the numbers of Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+ (LSK) hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and megakaryocytic progenitors.

Reduced Erg Dosage Impairs Survival of Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells.
