Transcription profiling by array of liver from C57BL6 mice transfected with AAV8 vectors expressing either GFP or human macrophage inhibitory factor (MIF) or none (PBS).
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: MIF is a general mediator of inflammatory responses and is associated with several inflammatory diseases including atherosclerosis. Therefore MIF is currently investigated as a therapeutic target for atherosclerosis. Generation of AAV8 vectors expressing human MIF was initiated to overexpress human MIF in AAV8 target tissues (liver, heart, muscles) of C57/Bl6 to study biological function of MIF in vivo and to provide an animal model for testing of MIF antibodies. Aim of the gene expression profiling experiment: Livers of AAV8-CMV-MIF treated animals in order to identify established and potential novel target genes of MIF induced signalling
