Journal ArticleDOI
Circadian profiling of the transcriptome in immortalized rat SCN cells.
TL;DR: Functional analyses and cartography indicate that a diverse set of cellular pathways are strategically regulated by the circadian clock in SCN2.2 cells and that the largest categories of rhythmic genes are those involved in cellular and systems-level communication or in metabolic processes like cellular respiration, fatty acid recycling, and steroid synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of genes differentially expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells following benzo[a]pyrene challenge: implications for chemical atherogenesis.
K. P. Lu,Kenneth S. Ramos +1 more
TL;DR: This is the first report showing that BaP modulates the expression of retrotransposon mRNAs which coupled to other genetic events, may play a significant role in the atherogenic response to this carcinogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Redox regulation of a novel L1Md-A2 retrotransposon in vascular smooth muscle cells.
K. P. Lu,Kenneth S. Ramos +1 more
TL;DR: A novel gene of L1Md-A2 lineage in vascular smooth muscle cells is identified and it is shown that environmental hydrocarbons enhance gene expression and activate monomer-driven transcription via a redox-sensitive mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genomic profiles and predictive biological networks in oxidant-induced atherogenesis.
Charles D. Johnson,Yoganand Balagurunathan,K. P. Lu,Mahlet G. Tadesse,M. H. Falahatpisheh,Raymond J. Carroll,Edward R. Dougherty,C. A. Afshari,K. S. Ramos +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defined genomic profiles and predictive gene biological networks associated with the atherogenic response of murine (aortic) VSMCs to benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon present in tobacco smoke.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel genomic targets in oxidant-induced vascular injury.
Charles R. Partridge,E.S. Williams,Rola Barhoumi,Mahlet G. Tadesse,Charles D. Johnson,K. P. Lu,Gerald A. Meininger,Emily Wilson,Kenneth S. Ramos,Kenneth S. Ramos +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the complex interaction between oxidative injury and the pathogenesis of vascular disease was examined in male Sprague-Dawley rats given 35 or 70 mg/kg allylamine, a synthetic amine converted to acrolein and hydrogen peroxide within the vascular wall.
