To assess response to chronic psychological stress, gene expression profiles in peripheral blood from 18 medical students confronting license examination were analyzed using an original microarray. Total RNA was collected from each subject 9 months before the examination and mixed to be used as a universal control. At that time, most students had normal scores on the state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI). However, STAI scores were significantly elevated at 2 months and at 2 days before the examination. Pattern of the gene expression profile was more uniform 2 days before than 2 months before the examination. We identified 24 genes that significantly and uniformly changed from the universal control 2 days before the examination. Of the 24 genes, real-time PCR validated changes in mRNA levels of 10 (PLCB2, CSF3R, ARHGEF1, DPYD, CTNNB1, PPP3CA, POLM, IRF3, TP53, and CCNI). The identified genes may be useful to assess chronic psychological stress response.

This gene set comprises 137 genes that were significantly expressed in the NA during the experiment. Background: The nuclear accumbens (NA) and amygdale (Amyg) of inbred alcohol-preferring mice were examined for differential gene expression and it findings suggest that changes in gene expression in the ACB of iP rats are associated with the reinforcing effects of ethanol (EtOH).
Striatum Gene Expression Correlates for ACTI_DIFF_05 measured in BXD RI Females obtained using GeneNetwork Striatum M430V2 (Apr05) RMA. The ACTI_DIFF_05 measures Difference in distance traveled (cm) during the first five min (saline-ethanol) under the domain Ethanol. The correlates were thresholded at a p-value of less than 0.001.
