- Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (rat2302)
Description
Nutritional status influences feeding behaviors, food preferences and taste sensations. For example, zinc-deficient rats have been reported to show reduced and cyclic food intake patterns with increased preferences for NaCl. Although some impairments of the central nervous and endocrine systems have been speculated to be involved in these phenomena, the effects of short-term zinc deficiency on the brain have not been well examined to date. In this study, we performed a comprehensive analysis of the gene expression patterns in the rat diencephalon, which is a portion of the brain that includes the hypothalamus and thalamus, after short-term zinc deficiency and also during zinc recovery. The rats showed reduced and cyclic food intake patterns with increased salt preferences after a 10-day dietary zinc deficiency. A comparative analysis of their diencephalons using cDNA microarrays revealed that approximately 1% of the genes expressed in the diencephalons showed significantly altered expression levels. On the other hand, a 6-day zinc supplementation following the deprivation allowed for the recovery to initial food intake behaviors and salt preferences. The expression levels of most of the genes that had been altered by exposure to zinc deficient conditions were also recovered. These results show that feeding behaviors, taste preferences and gene expression patterns in the diencephalon respond quickly to changing zinc levels. This suggests that the gene expression changes observed in the diencephalon and the accompanying functional changes may be related to the development of deviations in feeding behaviors and increased preferences for NaCl in zinc-deficient rats.
Publication Title
Dietary zinc status reversibly alters both the feeding behaviors of the rats and gene expression patterns in diencephalon.

Description
Aquaporin-11 (AQP11), a new member of the aquaporin family, is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Aqp11/ mice neonatally suffer from polycystic kidneys derived from the proximal tubule. Its onset is proceeded by the vacuolization of ER. However, the mechanism for the formation of vacuoles and the development of cysts remain to be clarified. Here, we show that Aqp11/ mice and polycystic kidney disease animals share a common pathogenic mechanism of cyst formation.

Description
Persimmon (Diospyros kaki L. f.) is a most popular fruit in Asian countries but its peels are totally wasted despite of containing a plenty of antioxidants such as carotenoids and polyphenols. We prepared a fat-soluble extract from a persimmon peel (PP) fraction and fed type 2 diabetic Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats with a PP extract-containing AIN-93G diet (PP diet) for 12 weeks. Compared with the control AIN-93G diet, the feeding of the PP diet reduced the plasma glutamic-pyruvate transaminase activity significantly, with accumulation of -cryptoxanthin in the liver. A DNA microarray analysis revealed that the PP diet altered the hepatic gene expression profiles. In particular, insulin signaling pathway-related genes were significantly enriched in differentially expressed gene sets. Moreover, Western blotting analysis actually showed the promotion of IR tyrosine phosphorylation. All these data suggest that the PP extract administration to the GK rats improves their insulin resistance.

Description
As an attempt to assess physio-psychological effects elicited in odorant-inhaled rats, gene expression profiling in the central nervous system was carried out with rats housed under stressful conditions. (R)-(-)-linalool inhalation to rats during 2 h restraint significantly up-regulated the expression of genes in hypothalamus, which were found to be related to neuron differentiation and regulation of transcription as well as immediate early genes. The expressions of 104 among focused stress-regulated genes were significantly altered by the inhalation. The (R)-(-)-linalool inhalation significantly repressed the restraint-induced changes in the expression levels of 77 of the 104. It also promoted the expression of the remaining 27 genes including those related to anti-apoptotic heat shock proteins. The differences in their hypothalamic gene expressions revealed that the inhaled odorants actually influenced stress responses, based on the restraint-induced hypothalamic gene expressions related to apoptosis. These results indicate that the analysis of gene expression profiles in rats subjected to a stressful condition is useful to evaluate odorant-induced effects as shown by the particular results that (R)-(-)-linalool inhalation under only 2 h restraint- stressed condition induces neuron differentiation against apoptosis.

Description
To elucidate the effect of the polyphenols contained in alcoholic beverages on the metabolic stress induced by ethanol consumption, four groups of mice were fed for five weeks on Lieber's diet with or without ethanol, with ethanol plus ellagic acid, and with ethanol plus trans-resveratrol. Alcoholic fatty liver was observed in the group fed the ethanol diet but not in those fed the ethanol plus polyphenol diets. Liver transcriptome analysis revealed that the addition of the polyphenols suppressed the expression of the genes related to cell stress that were up-regulated by ethanol alone. Conversely, the polyphenols up-regulated the genes involved in bile acid synthesis, unsaturated fatty acid elongation, and tetrahydrofolate synthesis that were down-regulated by ethanol alone. Because parts of these genes were known to be regulated by the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR), we performed the same experiment in the CAR-deficient mice. As a result, fatty liver was observed not only in the ethanol group but also with the ethanol plus polyphenol groups. In addition, there was no segregation of the gene expression profiles among these groups. These results provide a molecular basis for the prevention of alcohol-induced stress by the polyphenols in alcoholic beverages.

Description
In addition to satisfying the metabolic demands of cells, mitochondrial metabolism helps regulate immune cell function. To date, such cell-intrinsic metabolic-immunologic cross-talk has only been described operating in cells of the immune system. Here we show that epidermal cells utilize fatty acid -oxidation to fuel their contribution to the immune response during cutaneous inflammation. By live imaging metabolic and immunological processes within intact zebrafish embryos during cutaneous inflammation, we uncover a mechanism where elevated -oxidation-fueled mitochondria-derived reactive oxygen species within epidermal cells helps guide matrix metalloproteinase-driven leukocyte recruitment. This mechanism requires the activity of a zebrafish homolog of the mammalian mitochondrial enzyme, Immunoresponsive gene 1. This study describes the first example of metabolic reprogramming operating within a non-immune cell type to help control its contribution to the immune response. Targeting of this metabolic-immunologic interface within keratinocytes may prove useful in treating inflammatory dermatoses.
