A set of acute inflammation-regulated genes expressed in liver has been assigned to rat, mouse, and human chromosomes by detecting species-specific PCR amplicons in rat(x)mouse or mouse(x)hamster somatic cell hybrids or radiation hybrids or by in silico matches of corresponding rat cDNAs to various libraries of previously assigned rat, mouse, or human genes or expressed-sequence tags. This allowed us to assign 24, 22, and 21 inflammation-regulated genes to rat, mouse, and human chromosomes, respectively. From these assignments as well as those previously determined for a larger set of genes with an acute inflammation-regulated transcription in liver, we further investigated whether such genes are clustered onto given chromosomes. A cluster was found on rat Chromosome (Chr) 6q with a conserved synteny on mouse Chr 12 and human Chr 14q13-q32, and another cluster previously reported on human Chr 1q has been extended with five further genes. Our data suggest that during an acute inflammation, a higher-order regulation may control some liver-expressed genes that share a given chromosome area.
