Aortic arch profiling of Ldlr knockout mice with human CETP transgene


ABSTRACT: Aortic arch profiling of Ldlr-/- huCETP transgenic mice fed a low fat, cholesterol-containing western diet (LFWD, 9% fat, 0.15% cholesterol) starting at 8 weeks of age for 4, 8, 12, and 16 weeks. Ldlr-/- huCETP transgenic mice were fed a low fat, cholesterol-containing western diet (LFWD, 9% fat, 0.15% cholesterol) starting at 8 weeks of age for 4, 8, 12, and 16 weeks (Supplementary Figure 1). At each time point, 10 mice were studied. Mice were euthanized at each time point and the aortic arch of each mouse was immediately collected and flash-frozen in liquid N2. Mice were fasted overnight prior to euthanasia. the aortic arches of 10 mice in the same study group were pooled for profiling, resulting in one pool per study group. Tissues were homogenized and total RNA was extracted. The control RNA pool was composed of equal aliquots of RNA derived from the 4 pools (40 samples) from the LFWD 4-, 8-, 12- and 16-week time points.

Atherosclerosis represents the most significant risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD), the leading cause of death in developed countries. To better understand the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, we applied a likeli-hood-based model selection method to infer gene-disease causality relationships for the aortic lesion trait in a segregating mouse population demonstrating a spectrum of susceptibility to developing atherosclerotic lesions. We identified 292 genes that tested causal for aorti  ...[more]
