Project description:The objective of the experiment is to determine the genes differentially expressed in the adrenal gland of adult (12-week) BPH and BPL mice. Adrenal glands from adult (12-week) hypertensive BPH mice (n=3) and adult (12-week) hypotensive BPL mice (n=3).

Project description:Identification of hypothalamic genes whose expression differs between high blood pressure (BPH/2J) and normal blood pressure (BPN/3J) Schlager mouse strains at age 6 weeks (young) and 26 weeks (mature) using Affymetrix GeneChip® Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays. The whole hypothalamus was removed from young (6-week-old) and adult (26-week-old) BPH/2J hypertensive mice and age-matched normotensive BPN/2J mice (n=6/group) at peak of 24 h blood pressure. No pooling was performed. After extraction of RNA, cRNA was prepared and arrays performed using Affymetrix GeneChip® Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays at the Ramaciotti Gene Function Analysis facility, University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia.
Project description:Analysis of kidneys from 12 week BPH/2J hypertensive and age matched normotensive BPN/3J controls - males and females. The results provide insights into the genes that are involved in hypertension in both males and females, as well as highlight mechanisms that underlye sex differences in hypertension. We show that female data can be used to refine candidate genes and pathways, as well as highlight potential mechanisms to explain the differences in prevalence and severity of disease between the sexes. Male and female kidneys from 12 week old hypertensive (BPH/2J) and normotensive (BPN/3J) mice were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We used data obtained from male and female kidneys to identify common genes that are involved in the development of hypertension in males and females
Project description:We performed Affymetrix MG-U74Av2 GeneChip experiements on mRNA from the adrenal glands of the BPH hypertensive and BPL hypotensive mouse strains. All mice were aged-matched at 5 weeks. We obtained the mice from Jackson Laboratories, Bar Harbor, ME.

Project description:In this study we performed high throughput microfluidic qPCR using BioMark on RNA extracted from 5 organs (adrenal gland, kidney, liver, lung, and spleen) at 5 different time points throughout the development of hypertension (8, 10, 12, 16, and 24 weeks) in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats (SHR) as compared to Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) control in female subjects (n=3).
Project description:To investigate the effect of youthful systemic milieu on acute kidney injury in a rat kidney transplantation model based on young (6-week-old) and adult (12-week-old) recipients receiving similar donor kidneys (12-week-old)
