Dioxin-like polyhalogenated aromatic hydrocarbons represent a major class of environmentally and economically relevant toxicants. In mammals dioxin exposure leads to a broad spectrum of adverse affects, including hepatotoxicity of varying severity. Several studies have shown that dioxins extensively alter hepatic mRNA levels. Surprisingly, though, analysis of a limited portion of the transcriptome revealed that rat and mouse responses diverge greatly (Boverhof et al. Toxicol Sci 94:398\u2013416, 2006). Results; We employed oligonucleotide arrays to compare the response of 8,125 rat and mouse orthologs. We confirmed that there is limited inter-species overlap in dioxin-responsive genes. Rat-specific and mouse-specific genes are enriched for specific functional groups which differ between species, conceivably accounting for species-specificities in liver histopathology. While no evidence for the involvement of copy-number variation was found, extensive inter-species variation in the transcriptional-regulatory network was identified; Nr2f1 and Fos emerged as candidates to explain species-specific and species-independent responses, respectively. Conclusion; Our results suggest that a small core of genes is responsible for mediating the similar features of dioxin hepatotoxicity in rats and mice but non-overlapping pathways are simultaneously at play to result in distinctive histopathological outcomes. The extreme divergence between mouse and rat transcriptomic responses appears to reflect divergent transcriptional-regulatory networks. Taken together, these data suggest that both rat and mouse models should be used to screen the acute hepatotoxic effects of drugs and toxic compounds. Experiment Overall Design: Wild-type C57BL/6 mice were treated with 1000 ug/kg TCDD (n=6) or with cornoil vehicle as control (n=5) for 19 hours. Their livers were then excised, RNA extracted, and the resulting samples hybridized to Affymetrix MOE430-2 arrays to survey changes in the transcriptome profile.", "source": "http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-10769", "species": "mouse", "sample_source": "http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-10769/samples/"}
