Abstract The effect of developmental age (d) on expression of genes responsible for hepatic glycogen (GLY) synthesis and degradation, glucose flux, and GLY content, was determined in crossbred pigs euthanized (n = 6) at birth (d 0, pre-suckle), 1, 3, 7, 14, and 21 d. Liver GLY content and relative abundance of mRNA (RT-PCR) was determined. The relative content of liver mRNA was determined in 2 experiments, d 0, 1, 3, 7 (Experiment 1) and d 0, 1, 7, 14, 21 (Experiment 2). Within each experiment, data were analyzed using the GLM procedure of SAS. Fisher’s protected LSD procedure was used to separate treatment means. Day 0 (76.0) GLY content (mg/g) decreased (P < 0.01) 82% from d 0 to d 1, increased (P < 0.05) from d 1 (13.8) through d 14 (28.4), and did not differ (P = 0.07) between d 1 and 21. In Experiment 1, mRNA content of GLY synthesis proteins GYG1 and GYS1 was greatest (P < 0.01) at d 3 and 7; and 1 and 3; respectively, whereas mRNA content of GLY degrading proteins PGM1, PGM2, and PGM5 was greatest (P ≤ 0.01) at d 1; d 0; and d 1 and 7; respectively. In Experiment 2, mRNA content of GLY synthesis proteins GBE1 and GYS1 was greatest (P < 0.01) at d 0 and 21; and d 1 and 21; respectively, whereas mRNA content of GLY degrading proteins AGL, PGM2, PGM2L, and PGM5 was greatest (P < 0.01) at d 21; d 0; d 7, 14, and 21; and d 14 and 21; respectively. Glucose transporter SGLT1 mRNA content was greatest (P < 0.01) at d 14 and 21. These findings indicate that the pattern of mRNA content of key hepatic GLY degradation and synthesis proteins was consistent with GLY content of suckling pigs.

Background Pulmonary surfactant is a complex mixture of proteins and phospholipids synthetized by alveolar type II cells. Volatile anesthetics have been shown to reduce surfactant phospholipid biosynthesis by rat alveolar type II cells. Surfactant-associated protein C (SP-C) is critical for the alveolar surfactant functions. Our goal was to evaluate the effects of halothane and thiopental on SP-C messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in vitro in rat alveolar type II cells and in vivo in mechanically ventilated rats. Methods In vitro, freshly isolated alveolar type II cells were exposed to halothane during 4 h (1, 2, 4%) and 8 h (1%), and to thiopental during 4 h (10, 100 micrometer) and 8 h (100 micrometer). In vivo, rats were anesthetized with intraperitoneal thiopental or inhaled 1% halothane and mechanically ventilated for 4 or 8 h. SP-C mRNA expression was evaluated by ribonuclease protection assay. Results In vitro, 4-h exposure of alveolar type II cells to thiopental 10 and 100 micrometer increased their SP-C mRNA content to 145 and 197%, respectively, of the control values. In alveolar type II cells exposed for 4 h to halothane 1, 2, and 4%, the SP-C mRNA content increased dose-dependently to 160, 235, and 275%, respectively, of the control values. In vivo, in mechanically ventilated rats, 4 h of halothane anesthesia decreased the lung SP-C mRNA content to 53% of the value obtained in control (nonanesthetized, nonventilated) animals; thiopental anesthesia increased to 150% the lung SP-C mRNA content. Conclusions These findings indicate that halothane and thiopental used at clinically relevant concentrations modulate the pulmonary SP-C mRNA content in rats. In vivo, the additive role of mechanical ventilation is suggested.

Murine erythroleukemia cells (MELC) are induced to express erythroid differentiation when cultured with hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA). Newly synthesized alpha and beta globin mRNA are both relatively stable, half-life (t1/2) greater than 50 hr, early in the course of induced differentiation. In fully induced cells there is a decrease in stability of both newly synthesized alpha and beta globin mRNA. The decay of alpha mRNA is faster, (t 1/2, 10--12 hr) than beta globin mRNA (t1/2, 20--22 hr). Thus, differences in stability of alpha and beta globin mRNA plays a role in determining the ratio of alpha to beta mRNA content in differentiated erythroid cells.

Abstract Abstract Background: Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) infection can cause acute inflammation. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in a number of biological process including inflammation response. However, whether lncRNAs participate in TGEV-induced inflammation in porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPECs) is largely unknown. Results: In this study, the next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology was used to analyze the profiles of lncRNAs in Mock and TGEV-infected porcine intestinal epithelial cell-jejunum 2 (IPEC-J2) cell line. A total of 106 lncRNAs were differentially expressed. Many differentially expressed lncRNAs act as elements to competitively attach microRNAs (miRNAs) which target to messenger RNA (mRNAs ) to mediate expression of genes that related to Toll-like receptors (TLRs), NOD-like receptors (NLRs), Tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and RIG-I-like receptor s (RLRs) pathways. Functional analysis of the binding proteins and the up/down-stream genes of the differentially expressed lncRNAs revealed that lncRNAs were principally related to inflammatory response. Meanwhile, we found that the differentially expressed lncRNA TCONS_00058367 might lead to a reduction of phosphorylation of transcription factor p65 (p-p65) in TGEV-infected IPEC-J2 cells by negatively regulating its antisense gene romyelocytic leukemia (PML ). Conclusions: The data showed that differentially expressed lncRNAs might be involved in inflammatory response induced by TGEV through acting as miRNA sponges, regulating their up/down-stream genes, or directly binding proteins.

The effect of continuous insulin stimulation on the rates of turnover and on the total cellular contents of the glucose-transporter proteins GLUT1 and GLUT4 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes was investigated. Pulse-and-chase studies with [35S]methionine followed by immunoprecipitation of GLUT1 and GLUT4 with isoform-specific antibodies revealed the half-lives of these proteins to be 19 h and 50 h respectively. Inclusion of 100 nM insulin in the chase medium resulted in a decrease in the half-lives of both proteins to about 15.5 h. This effect of insulin was specific for the glucose-transporter proteins, as the average half-life of all proteins was found to be 55 h both with and without insulin stimulation. The effect of insulin on the rate of synthesis of the glucose transporters was determined by the rate of incorporation of [35S]methionine. After 24 h of insulin treatment, the rate of synthesis of GLUT1 and GLUT4 were elevated over control levels by 3.5-fold and 2-fold respectively. After 72 h of treatment under the same conditions, the rate of synthesis of GLUT1 remained elevated by 2.5-fold, whereas the GLUT4 synthesis rate was not different from control levels. Western-blot analysis of total cellular membranes revealed a 4.5-fold increase in total cellular GLUT1 content and a 50% decrease in total cellular GLUT4 after 72 h of insulin treatment. These observations suggest that the rates of synthesis and degradation of GLUT1 and GLUT4 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes are regulated independently and that these cells respond to prolonged insulin treatment by altering the metabolism of GLUT1 and GLUT4 proteins in a specific manner.

Gentamicin nephrotoxicity may arise in part from alterations in the expression of genes critical for renal proximal tubule metabolism. We tested the hypothesis that gentamicin suppressed the gene expression of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NaCaX), glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and alpha 1-subunit of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase (alpha 1-NKA) in renal tubules. The products of these genes mediate Na(+)-dependent Ca2+ efflux, glucose efflux and influx, and ATP-dependent Na+ efflux across tubular basolateral membranes, respectively. After 10 days of gentamicin intoxication (40 mg/kg ip, twice daily), levels of mRNAs encoding NaCaX and the cognate protein declined. GLUT1 mRNA levels increased, although GLUT1 protein levels were also reduced. Moreover, whereas alpha 1-NKA mRNA levels remained unchanged, alpha 1-NKA protein levels were also reduced. We suggest that the higher GLUT1 mRNA level is part of the stress response to tubular injury. However, regardless of the mRNA level, the most consistent effect of gentamicin was reduction of specific protein levels. We propose that failure to translate high levels of mRNA into proportionally high levels of protein, as in the case of GLUT1, may attenuate the expression of stress response gene products, and thus diminish the possibility of recovery in gentamicin intoxication.

Insulin action in the liver is critical for glucose homeostasis through regulation of glycogen synthesis and glucose output. Arrestin domain-containing 3 (Arrdc3) is a member of the α-arrestin family previously linked to human obesity. Here, we show thatArrdc3is differentially regulated by insulin in vivo in mice undergoing euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamps, being highly up-regulated in liver and down-regulated in muscle and fat. Mice with liver-specific knockout (KO) of the insulin receptor (IR) have a 50% reduction inArrdc3messenger RNA, while, conversely, mice with liver-specific KO ofArrdc3(L-Arrdc3KO) have increased IR protein in plasma membrane. This leads to increased hepatic insulin sensitivity with increased phosphorylation of FOXO1, reduced expression of PEPCK, and increased glucokinase expression resulting in reduced hepatic glucose production and increased hepatic glycogen accumulation. These effects are due to interaction of ARRDC3 with IR resulting in phosphorylation of ARRDC3 on a conserved tyrosine (Y382) in the carboxyl-terminal domain. Thus,Arrdc3is an insulin target gene, and ARRDC3 protein directly interacts with IR to serve as a feedback regulator of insulin action in control of liver metabolism.
