Objective To investigate gene expressions of GPR40 in βTC-3 cells induced by free fatty acids(FFA) and the intervention effect of pioglitazone(Piog) on those expressions.Methods βTC-3 cells studied in the experiment were subject to different treatments with a blank and three concentrations of FFA (0.25,0.5 and 1.0 mmol/L).Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis was used to determine the RNA expression level of GPR40 in βTC-3 cells after 12 hours and 24 hours respectively.Afterwards,βTC-3 cells were preincubated with different concentrations of Piog(0,0.1,1,10 μmol/L)for 6 hours,and 1 mmol/L FFA was then added and the cells were incubated for another 24 hours.The RNA expression level of GPR40 was determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR at last.Results (1) After the cells were incubated with FFA of different concentrations for 12 hours,there was no statistically significant difference among all the groups.(2) After the 24-hour incubation,no difference was shown between the group with 0.25 mmol/L FFA and the control group.But compared to the control group and the group with 0.25 mmol/L FFA,the expression of GPR40 in βTC-3 cells in both groups with 0.5 mmol/L FFA and that with 1 mmol/L FFA decreased after the 24-hour incubation (P0.05).There was,however,no statistical difference between the group with 0.5 mmol/L FFA and that with 1 mmol/L FFA.(3)Though no statistically significant difference was found between the group with 0.1 μmol/L Piog+1.0 mmol/L FFA and that with 1.0 mmol/L FFA,the RNA expression level of GPR40 in both the group with 1 μmol/L Piog+1.0 mmol/L FFA and that with 10 μmol/L Piog+1.0 mmol/L FFA increased compared to the group with 1 mmol/L FFA (P0.01).Conclusion The expression of GPR40 in βTC-3 cells may be inhibited by long-term administration of FFA of high concentration,while Piog can help to protect the expression of GPR40 against FFA-induced impairment in βTC-3 cell.
Objective To investigate the changes in gene expression spectrum of heart tissue in septic rats by DNA microarrays. Methods Thirty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sepsis group and control group with 15 rats in each group. Cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) was used to reproduce rat sepsis model, and the success of reproduction was confirmed by examining the heart tissue with transmission electron microscope. Gene expression spectrum was studied with oligonucleotide gene expression profile microarray that contained 22 523 rat cDNA clones to detect the changes in gene expression pattern of rat heart tissue 24 hours after CLP. Genes with fluorescent signal of Cy3/Cy5 of ratio average (RA)>2.0 or RA<0.5 were identified as differential genes, then those that high correlated to sepsis were screened by means of related computer software, and their relationship was analyzed. Results Electron microscopic examination of heart tissue demonstrated that the sepsis model was successfully reproduced. Compared to the controls, gene expression of 418 genes of heart tissue of septic rat were changed 24 hours after CLP, accounting for 1.86%, and among them 200 genes showed up-regulation, 218 genes with down-regulation. Among known functional genes, 84 genes up-regulated and 74 genes down-regulated. They were related with a range of genetic functions, such as acute stress reaction, signal transduction, immune response, energy metabolism related genes etc. Conclusion There are a series of changes in gene expression in heart tissue apparently induced by sepsis rat. DNA microarray technology provides a new tool for rapidly analyzing them.
