Description
The spatial organization of DNA in the cell nucleus is an emerging key contributor to genomic function. We have developed 4C technology, or 3C-on-chip, which allows for an unbiased genome-wide search for DNA loci that contact a given locus in the nuclear space. We demonstrate here that active and inactive genes are engaged in many long-range intrachromosomal interactions and can also form interchromosomal contacts. The active b-globin locus in fetal liver contacts mostly transcribed, but not necessarily tissue-specific, loci elsewhere on chromosome 7, while the inactive locus in fetal brain contacts different, transcriptionally silent, loci. A housekeeping gene in a gene dense region on chromosome 8 forms long-range contacts predominantly with other active gene clusters, both in cis and in trans, and many of these intra- and interchromosomal interactions are conserved between the tissues analyzed. Our data demonstrate that chromosomes fold into areas of active chromatin and areas of inactive chromatin and establish 4C technology as a powerful tool to study nuclear architecture.

Description
In order to study the gene expression profile in C57Bl/10 mouse blood, we exposed three different groups of animals. First was exposed to PO2 21% or normoxia. The second was exposed to chronic hypoxia (from PO2 21% to PO2 8%) and the third was also exposed to the same chronic hypoxia (CH) protocol but followed by two weeks under normoxia, and called as recovery group. The blood was extracted from inferior vena cava, the RNA was extracted, amplified and hybridized to Affimetrix MOE 430 V2.o chip. The results were analyzed using Partek Genome suite software. Using two fold cuttoff and 0% FDR parameters, we observed genes 512 diferentially expressed, of which one gene was up-regulated in both hypoxic and recovery condition, 202 were up-regulated during CH and then down-regulated after the recovery, 18 genes were down-regulated afteh CH and the up-regulated after recovery, ans finally 9 genes were down-regulated in both CH and recovery conditions.

Isoniazid induced varying degrees of hepatic steatosis in an inbred strain Mouse Diversity Panel (MDP) study. RNA was isolated from all animals for analysis of gene expression changes in the liver. The objective of this study was to identify gene expression changes that drive isoniazid-induced steatosis.

Description
Stem cells reside in specific niches providing stemness-maintaining environments. Thus, the regulated migration from these niches is associated with differentiation onset. However, mechanisms retaining stem cells in their niche remain poorly understood. Here, we show that the epigenetic regulator lysine-specific demethylase 1 (Lsd1) organises the trophoblast niche of the early mouse embryo by coordinating migration and invasion of trophoblast stem cells (TSCs). Lsd1 deficiency leads to the depletion of the stem cell pool resulting from precocious migration of TSCs.

Description
Background: Gq-coupled G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) mediate the actions of a variety of messengers that are key regulators of cardiovascular function. Enhanced Gaq-mediated signaling plays an important role in cardiac hypertrophy and in the transition to heart failure. We have recently described that Gaq acts as an adaptor protein that facilitates PKCz-mediated activation of ERK5 in epithelial cells. Since the ERK5 cascade is known to be involved in cardiac hypertrophy, we have investigated the potential relevance of this pathway in Gq-dependent signaling in cardiac cells.

Description
We isolated fetal murine urogenital sinus epithelium and urogenital sinus mesenchyme and determined their global gene expression profiles to define their differentially expressed regulators. To distinguish gene expression patterns that are shared by other developing epithelial/mesenchymal compartments in the embryo from those that pertain to the prostate stem cell niche, we also determine the global gene expression of epidermis and dermis of the same embryos. We identified a distinctive core of transcripts that were differentially regulated in the prostate stem cell niche. Our analysis indicates that several of the key transcriptional components that are likely to be active in the embryonic prostate stem cell niche regulate processes such as self-renewal (e.g., E2f and Ap2), lipid metabolism (e.g., Serbp1) and cell migration (e.g., Areb6 and Rreb1). Several of the promoter binding motifs that are enriched in the profiles are shared between the prostate epithelial/mesenchymal compartments and their epidermis/dermis counterparts, indicating their likely relevance in epithelial/mesenchymal signaling in primitive cellular compartments. We also focused on defining ligand-receptor interactions that may be relevant in controlling signals in the stem cell niche and identified the Wnt/beta-catenin, ephrin, Notch, sonic hedgehog, FGF, TGF-beta and bone morphogenic signaling pathways as being of likely relevance in the prostate stem cell niches. Members of the integrins family including those that bind extracellular matrix proteins such as laminin and activate latent TGF-beta are also expressed in the prostate niche.development.
