Project description:[original Title] Comparison of expression data of primary murine melanocytes from aryl hydrocarbon deficient mice and corresponding wild-type C57BL/6 mice Melanin is produced exclusively by melanocytes and melanogenesis is the vital response to protect skin cells against Ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced DNA damage. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a transcription factor, which may be involved in the physiological tanning response. Normal murine melanocytes express functional AhR. We tested gene expression in WT versus AhR-deficient mice primary murine melanocytes, isolated from the skin and cultivated for several passages.

We tested gene expression in WT versus AhR-deficient mice primary murine melanocytes, isolated from the skin and cultivated for several passages. Skin epidermal cells from 2 individual C57BL/6 mice and 2 individual AhR-deficient mice (deletion of exon2, AhRtm1Bra) were grown for 6-8 weeks in selection medium to propagate melanocytes.
Project description:To identify aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) dependent transcriptional changes in mouse colon stem cells, we performed RNA sequencing of colon organoids from wildtype and AhR deficient mice stimulated with an high affinity AHR ligand, 5nM FICZ for 4 hours.
Project description:Whole livers from HDAC6, HDAC9 deficient and wild type C57BL/6 mice, age 8-12 weeks, gender: female. Wild type mice with or without high fat diet
Project description:As part of a study of the role of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) in maintenance and senescence of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), global gene expression profiling was done with HSC isolated from Ahr-knockout and wild-type mice. HSC from young-adult (8 wk old) AhR-KO mice had changes in expression of many genes related to HSC maintenance, consistent with the phenotype observed in aging Ahr-KO mice: decreased survival rate, splenomegaly, increased circulating white blood cells, hematopoietic cell accumulation in tissues, anemia, increased numbers of stem/progenitor and lineage-committed cells in bone marrow, decreased erythroid progenitor cells in bone marrow, and decreased self-renewal capacity of HSC. 7 samples: 3 Ahr knockout, 4 wild-type
Project description:As part of a study of the role of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) in maintenance and senescence of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), global gene expression profiling was done with HSC isolated from 18-month-old Ahr-knockout and wild-type mice. HSC from aged AhR-KO mice had changes in expression of many genes related to HSC maintenance, consistent with the phenotype observed in aging Ahr-KO mice: decreased survival rate, splenomegaly, increased circulating white blood cells, hematopoietic cell accumulation in tissues, anemia, increased numbers of stem/progenitor and lineage-committed cells in bone marrow, decreased erythroid progenitor cells in bone marrow, and decreased self-renewal capacity of HSC. 10 samples: 5 Ahr knockout, 5 wild-type
Project description:Three groups of sex- and aged-matched 9-12 week old C57BL/6 wild type mice and gp91-/-phox mice were infected by i.v. injection of bacterial suspensions: Group 1 represents wild type C57BL/6 mice infected with virulent S. Typhimurium SL1344 grown in vitro. (Raw files: OTNCS_AGSL1344#3C#9C#10C-XX) Group 2 represents wild type C57BL/6 mice infected with virulent S. Typhimurium SL1344 grown in vivo for 72 h in the Group 1 C57BL/6 mice. (Raw files: OTNCS_AGSL1344#9F#10F-XX) Group 3 represents immunodeficient gp91-/-phox mice infected with virulent S. Typhimurium SL1344 grown in vitro. (Raw files: OTNCS_AGSL1344#11C#12C#13C-XX) And Input (Raw files: OTNCS_AGSL1344mixedAa-XX and OTNCS_AGSL1344mixedAb-XX)
Project description:Gene expression in wild-type and p38a-knockout keratinocytes were compared. Keratinocytes were isolated from newborn mice, and left unirradiated (0 h) and irradiated (4 h) with ultraviolet-B (UVB). C57BL/6 wild-type mice, and keratinocyte-specific p38a-knockout mice on a C57BL/6 background were used for isolation of primary keratinocytes.
