Project description:Wild-type (C57Bl6) mice underwent monocular enucleation at P20 and were sacrificed 4 days later at P24. Bilateral (non-deprived and deprived) visual cortex was dissected from 1-mm thick coronal sections, and total RNA was extracted from the tissue lysate using Trizol (Gibco-BRL). Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression in pooled samples from 4 non-deprived (ipsilateral to monocular enucleation) and 4 deprived (contralateral to monocular enucleation) visual hemispheres was compared.

Project description:Microarray expression profiling of manually sorted m-citirin-labeled layer 4 visual cortex star pyramid neurons from deprived and non-deprived hemispheres.
Project description:Microarray expression profiling of manually sorted m-citirin-labeled layer 4 visual cortex star pyramid neurons from deprived and non-deprived hemispheres. Monocular deprivation by TTX-injection (at P12-13 and again at P13-14), followed by manual sorting of m-Citrin-labeled Layer 4 Visual Cortex Star Pyramid neurons in deprived and non-deprived hemispheres. RNA was extracted using PicoPure RNA Isolation Kit, reverse transcribed, and amplified using a standard T7 IVT protocol (Affymetrix Small Sample Target Labeling Assay Version II).
