miR-122 regulation of lipid metabolism revealed by in vivo antisense targeting.
Current understanding of microRNA (miRNA) biology is limited, and antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) inhibition of miRNAs is a powerful technique for their functionalization. To uncover the role of the liver-specific miR-122 in the adult liver, we inhibited it in mice with a 2'-O-methoxyethyl phosphorothioate ASO. miR-122 inhibition in normal mice resulted in reduced plasma cholesterol levels, inc...
متن کاملAntisense Technology and its Implications Gene Expression Antisense Technology The Design and Targeting of Antisense ODNs
While many studies have examined the numerous physiological and pharmacological factors which can induce the expression of c-fos and other immediate-early genes, few have examined the consequences of altering their expression pattern. Using antisense oligonucleotides to c-fos, we demonstrate that amphetamine-induced c-fos expression c m be attenuated in vivo, in specific brain regions. This uni...
متن کاملFunctional analysis of polyphenol oxidases by antisense/sense technology.
Polyphenol oxidases (PPOs) catalyze the oxidation of phenolics to quinones, the secondary reactions of which lead to oxidative browning and postharvest losses of many fruits and vegetables. PPOs are ubiquitous in angiosperms, are inducible by both biotic and abiotic stresses, and have been implicated in several physiological processes including plant defense against pathogens and insects, the M...
متن کاملEffects of perilipin 2 antisense oligonucleotide treatment on hepatic lipid metabolism and gene expression.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide. We previously showed that Perilipin 2 (Plin2), a member of lipid droplet protein family, is markedly increased in fatty liver, and its reduction in the liver of diet-induced obese mice by antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) decreased steatosis and enhanced insulin sensitivity. Plin2-ASO treatment markedly suppresse...
متن کاملLipid metabolism by gut microbes and atherosclerosis.
A recent metabolomic study provides evidence that microbial metabolism of lipids in the gut yields product(s) that promote atherosclerosis. These results add another dimension—the microbiome—to the complex determinants of atherogenesis. Atherosclerotic vascular disease is a complex pathophenotype that is governed by genetic and environmental determinants. The mechanistic interplay between speci...
