The Affymetrix Inc. rat genome 230 2.0 GeneChip was employed to examine alterations in gene regulation in rat hepatoma cells exposed to 30 μmol/L of M2 for 96 h.The results showed that 38 genes were significantly p<0.002 5 altered by M2 at two-fold changes in all the four possible control/exposure comparisons. Accn5 was the only well described gene consistently being suppressed which likely altered the epithelial sodium channel ENaC .10 and 82 annotated genes were up-and down-regulated in at least one of the control/exposure comparisons respectively. The induced genes were mainly involved in the nucleus belonging to the cellular component. The largest categories of suppression concerned G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathways belonging to the biological process and integral to membranes belonging to the cellular component.展开更多
