Gene expression comparison between Ebf2 -/- and WT P2 Sciatic nerves
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Ebf genes regulate differentiation of several cell type. Ebf2 is expressed in Schwann cells and Ebf2-/- mice show among other phenotypical abnormalities a delay in the onset of myelination associated to a decreased expression of genes regulating myelination. In addition at one month of age Ebf2-/- mice show decreased motor conduction velocity and morphological alteration in sciatic nerves. Ebf2 target genes are unknown. To identify Ebf2 target genes with a role in myelination, we compared the expression profiles of sciatic nerves isolated from P2 Wt and Ebf2-/- mice by microarray analysis. We used microarray to find Ebf2 candidate target genes by comparing gene expression of Ebf2-/- sciatic nerve and wt nerves 2 days postnatally (P2) a time point in which Ebf2-/- pups present a delay in the onset of myelination.
