Title |
Bone marrow TTP deficeincy significantly increased inflammation while reduced plasma lipid and hepatic steatosis in LDLR knockout mice |
Organism |
Mus musculus |
Experiment type |
Expression profiling by array
|
Summary |
In order to examine the effects of bone marrow TTP deficiency on inflammation and lipid metabolism and determine the driving force during atherosclerosis, 8 week-old female LDLR−/− mice on C57BL/6J background were lethally irradiated and reconstituted with a wild type (TTP+/+) or TTP knockout (TTP−/−) bone marrow cells and fed a Western diet for 12 weeks. Then mice were sacrificed and tissues were collected for analysis. Liver tissues were collected and gene expression was analysed using a whole genome microarray. Bone marrow TTP−/− recipients displayed a significantly higher systemic and multi-organ inflammation compared to the BM-TTP+/+ recipients. BM-TTP−/− mice displayed a significant reduction of serum lipid levels, attenuated hepatic steatosis, and decreased lipid excretion than the control mice. microarray data showed that BM-TTP deficiency modulate liver genes involved in lipid metabolism and inflammatory response. RT-qPCR was used to confirm the results in several genes from microarray data. BM-TTP deficiency did not further accelerate atherorogenesis process in LDLR−/− mice after a Western diet feeding. TTP promoted VLDL to drive proinflammatory mechanism into proatherogenic mechanism.

Overall design |
Two-condition, one-color experiment. LDLR knockout mice were transplanted with wild type or TTP knockout bone marrow cells and gene expression was performed on RNA isolated from liver. 4 biological replicates per each experimental group.
