View SamplesIn summary, we characterized genomic signatures of response to drugs of abuse and we found positive correlations between the drug-induced expression and various behavioral effects. These signatures are formed by two dynamically inducible transcriptional networks: (1) CREB/SRF-dependent gene pattern that appears to be related to drug-induced neuronal activity, (2) the pattern of genes controlled at least in part via release of glucocorticoids and androgens that are associated with rewarding and harmful drug effects. The discovery of co-expressed networks of genes allowed for the identification of master-switch controlling factors involved in molecular response to the drugs. Finally, using the pharmacological tools we were able to dissect and inhibit particular gene expression patterns from genomic profile.

View SamplesTo identify molecular effects of chronic drug treatment, heroin and methamphetamine treated animals were compared with saline treated animals at multiple time-points using microarray technology. Gene expression profile was assessed 14 h after the last dose of 1, 3, 6 or 12 days drug treatment and after 13, 15, 18 or 24 days of withdrawal.

View SamplesKetamine has been found to elicit a rapid antidepressant effects in treatment-refractory affective disorders. To indicate the underlying mechanism of action we have performed whole-genome microarray profiling. Moreover, the effects of ketamine were compared to other NMDA receptor antagonists phencyclidine and memantine.

View SamplesBiomarkers of osteoarthritis (OA) that can accurately diagnose the disease at the earliest stage would significantly support efforts to develop treatments for prevention and early intervention. The different stages of disease progression are described by the complex pattern of transcriptional regulations. The dynamics in pattern alterations were monitored in each individual animal during the time-course of OA progression.

Treatment
View SamplesWe utilized whole-genome microarrays (Illumina Mouse WG-6) to measure changes in mRNA abundance levels induced by steroid hormones in primary neurons and astrocytes. To stimulate gene expression we treated neuronal and astroglial cultures with glucocorticoid receptor agonist (dexamethasone), mineralocorticoid (aldosterone), progesterone (progesterone), androgen (5-dihydrotestosterone) and estrogen 2 (-estradiol).

View SamplesChronic opiate use produces molecular and cellular adaptations in the nervous system, leading to tolerance, physical dependence and addiction. Genome-wide comparison of morphine-induced changes in brain transcription of mouse strains with different opioid-related phenotypes provides an opportunity to discover the relationship between gene expression and behavioral response to the drug.
