Description
Lactic acid bacteria confer a variety of health benefits. Here we investigate the mechanisms by which Lactobacillus brevis KB290 enhances cell-mediated cytotoxic activity. We fed a diet containing KB290 (3 10^9 colony-forming units/g) , or potato starch, to 9-week-old female BALB/c mice for 1, 4, 7, or 14 days and examined the cytotoxic activity of splenocytes was measured. RNA was extracted from the spleen and analyzed for gene expression by DNA microarray.

Description
In a mouse model of elastase-induced emphysema, the effect of tetomilast against the emphysema development observed in C57BL/6J (C57) could be also detected in phosphodiesterase (PDE) 4D(+/+) but not in PDE4B(+/+), PDE4B(-/-), and PDE4D(-/-) mice. Based on this result, we hypothesized that the difference in the efficacy of tetomilast among these strains of mice might result from the differences in the levels of the target molecules of tetomilast other than PDE4 in each mouse strain. To test this hypothesis, we used microarrays to compare the expression levels of genes in the lungs of each mouse strain. The expression profiling by array demonstrated that the levels of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1 (CDKN1a) in PDE4B(+/+), PDE4B(-/-), and PDE4D(-/-) were higher than those in C57 and PDE4D(+/+).

Description
A total of 40 female mice 129/SV aged 3-6 months and weighting 18-25 g were used (Janvier, Le Genest-St-Isle, France). NTS was injected in mice (10 l/gBW/day) during three consecutive days. The total number of mice was divided to five treatment groups as followed: 8 mice were injected with PBS and fed with vehicle, 8 mice were injected with NTS and fed with vehicle, 8 mice were injected with NTS and fed with low dose DDR1i, 8 mice were injected with NTS and fed with high dose DDR1i and 8 mice were injected with NTS and fed with Imatinib. All treatments were provided by oral gavage. Treatment was started one day [PM{1}] prior first injection of NTS or PBS. The average food intake was controlled by weighing the food every three days. Mice were found to consume about 4g/day/mouse [PM{2}] which was similar to all groups.

Description
NOD mice are an inbred strain that display enhanced MZ B cell differentiation from an early age. Interestingly, several lines of evidence implicate MZ B cells in this strain as important contributors to the T cell mediated beta cell destruction associated with the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D). In order to develop a better understanding of the underlying causes for augmented MZ B cell production in NOD mice, we obtained the transcriptional profiles of FO and MZ subsets and TR precursors from NOD mice and compared them to those of the B6 strain.

Description
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) plays a critical role in connective tissue remodeling by fibroblasts during tissue repair and fibrosis. We investigated the molecular pathways in the transmission of ET-1 signals that lead to features of connective tissue remodeling, in particular the role of FAK (focal adhesion kinase).

Description
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are serious birth defects with an estimated worldwide incidence of 1 per 1,000 live births. The multifactorial nature of NTDs in humans has made it difficult to elucidate pathogenesis mechanisms. However, a strong relationship has been established between folate-homocysteine metabolism and NTD risk. Prevention of a substantial proportion of fetal NTDs can be achieved through maternal folic acid (FA) supplementation. However the mechanism by which FA exerts its beneficial effect remains unclear. METHODS: To improve our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of NTD pathogenesis and the ways in which folate exerts its beneficial effect, we analyzed mRNA profiles as well as folate and vitamin B12 levels in five NTD mouse mutants whose response to dietary FA was previously established. RESULTS: Differentially expressed genes representing the effect of each NTD-causing mutation were identified and associated with biologic pathways. Interestingly, the panel of NTD mutants collectively revealed pathways related to two nuclear receptors, retinoid X receptor (RXR) and pregnane X receptor (PXR), suggesting that these pathways may be related to a shared mechanism of NTD development. Moreover, the NTD-causing mutations that were associated with FA responsiveness had expression profiles that were related to folate-homocysteine metabolic pathways. These pathways were not strongly associated with mutants that do not respond to FA supplementation, implying that FA may be beneficial when the NTD mutation affects pathways related to folate-homocysteine metabolism.
