Project description:whole gene expression analysis for ZBTB17 cKO mice after transverse aortic constriction (TAC) We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying hypertrophy and heart failure process upon pressure overload
Project description:To identify the role of circRNA on the mouse heart during pressure overload induced heart failure, we have employed circRNA microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to detect circRNA expression. Samples were collected from the sham group and the pressure overload groups (2, 4 and 8 weeks after TAC), with 2 samples per group. The candidate circRNA that may affect the process of heart failure was screened by comparing the pressure overload groups and the sham group.
Project description:To identify the role of mRNA on the mouse heart during pressure overload induced heart failure, we have employed high-throughput sequencing to detect mRNA expression. Samples were collected from the sham group and the pressure overload groups (2, 4 and 8 weeks after TAC), with 2 samples per group. The candidate mRNA that may affect the process of heart failure was screened by comparing the pressure overload groups and the sham group.
Project description:whole gene expression analysis for ZBTB17 cKO mice after transverse aortic constriction (TAC) We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying hypertrophy and heart failure process upon pressure overload 16 male mice, 4 mice per group, were selected at 8-10 weeks old for 4 weeks of TAC and SHAM and collected samples for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We included corresponding controls.
Project description:The endogenous peptide Apelin is crucial for maintaining heart function in pressure overload and aging Experiment Overall Design: Heart samples from Apelin knockout mice with pressure overload and sham control together with the wild-type mice with pressure overload and sham were compared
Project description:To identify the microRNA (miR) profile in the hearts of mice that were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and compare this profile with respective profiles that have been published in studies with mice that underwent pressure overload heart failure, 8 mouse samples were hybridized to Sanger 14 Multi-Species miR microarrays. As a result, we observed that particular cardiac miRs that are modulated during pressure overload heart failure are not affected significantly by treatment with LPS
