Project description:Effect of furan on transcriptomic and gene-specific DNA methylation changes in the livers of Fischer 344 rats in a two-year carcinogenicity study
Project description:Late-life intervention with a soy-enriched diet attenuated age-dependent changes in renal structure and dysfunction in male Fischer 344 rats.
Project description:This study was performed to characterize the gene expression profile of rat peritoneal mesothelioma (RPM) formation following treatment of Fischer 344 rats with o-nitrotoluene (o-NT) or bromochloracetic acid (BCA). Keywords: Rat, Mesotheliomas, Bromochloractetic acid, o-Nitrotoluene, Carcinogenesis, Microarray
Project description:Different inbred strains of rats differ in their susceptibility to OIR, an animal model of human retinopathy of prematurity. We examined gene expression profiles in Fischer 344 (F344, resistant to OIR) and Sprague Dawley (SD, susceptible to OIR) rats at the early time point of day 3 to identifying gene pathways related to the underlying genetic cause of phenotypic differences between strains.
Project description:Transcriptomic data obtained by RNA-seq from male Fischer 344 rats treated with furan and 3-methylfuran were compared and contrasted. Microarray data from the same rats treated with furan was also used to compare microarray to RNA seq analysis.
