Project description:Transcriptional profiling of mouse Extensior Digitorum Longus muscle comparing control Wilde type (WT) C57BL/6J, 4 month old female with Calsequestrin 1-null muscles of the same age and gender without any treatment
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of mouse Extensior Digitorum Longus muscle comparing control Wilde type (WT) C57BL/6J, 4 month old female with Calsequestrin 1-null muscles of the same age and gender without any treatment Two-condition experiment, KO vs. WT muscle. Biological replicates: 1 pool with 6 WT controls, 4 KO independently grown. Two replicates per array and dye swap.
Project description:We used microarray analysis to identify differences in gene expression levels, in liver and in quadriceps skeletal muscle, between 18h (overnight) fasted WT control and Kruppel-like factor 15 (KLF15)-null mice. Experiment Overall Design: Liver and skeletal muscle (quadriceps) tissues were isolated from 4-5 month old, 18h-fasted WT and KLF15-null female mice for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
Project description:Purpose: To assess changes in gene expression profiles of mouse ovarian gruanlosa cells from normal control mice, 11-month mice and 11-month mice treated with CEFFE. Methods:The control group comprised 8-week-old female mice, and the 10-month-old female mice were equally divided into two groups, Aged and Aged +CF groups. The mice from Aged +CF group were treated with 200 μL CEFFE (protein concentration: 3 μg/μL) via tail vein every two days for 2 weeks. At the same time, mice from Control and Aged group were injected with the same volume of saline. Then at the forth week ,ovaries were collected. Furthermore, the mRNA-Seq of mouse ovaries were performed to explore underlying mechanism of CEFFE. Results: 1302 genes were significantly increased and 1425 genes were significantly decreased in expression level between Aged vs Ctrl gorup.154 genes were significantly increased and 167 genes were significantly decreased in expression level between Aged+CF vs Aged gorup.
Project description:We compare the effect of IL-33 vs PBS on muscle regneration from 22-month old mice 8 days post-injury. These analyses from whole muscle provide insight into the role of IL-33 on regeneration in the context of aging.
Project description:this dataset encompasses the muscle transcriptomic changes elicited in quadriceps muscles of 4- vs 24-month-old mice (males + females) with a 12-week-long regimen of once-weekly ZT0 prednisone (1mg/kg i.p.)
Project description:this dataset encompasses the muscle GR epigenomic changes elicited in quadriceps muscles of 4- vs 24-month-old mice (males + females) with a 12-week-long regimen of once-weekly ZT0 prednisone (1mg/kg i.p.)
Project description:MicroRNA-expression profile of dystrophic single fibres vs wild type single fibers isolated from different muscle of mdx and c57bl mice. Myofibers were isolated from different muscle type (tibialis, diaphragm and quadriceps of gender- (male) and age- (3 month old and half) matched wt and dystrophic mice).
Project description:The semen of Small Tail Han Sheep has characteristics of high yield, high density, and good motility. To reveal the key miRNAs, mRNAs and miR-Targets regulatory mechanisms in Small Tail Han Sheep testes development, integrated analysis of miRNA and mRNA expression profiles in 2-, 6-, and 12-month-old testes were investigated by RNA-seq technology and bioinformatics methods. As the results shown: 630, 102, and 322 differentially expressed (DE) mRNAs; 5, 1 and 4 DE known miRNAs; 132, 105 and 24 DE novel miRNAs were identified in 2- vs 6-month-old, 6- vs 12-month-old, and 2- vs 12-month-old testes, respectively. GO and pathway analysis showed: in 2- vs 6-month-old testes, DE mRNAs were mainly involved in sexual maturation process and the DE mRNAs were mainly involved in multiple metabolism and biosynthesis pathways; in 6- vs 12-month-old testes, DE mRNAs were mainly involved in metabolism and translation processes, and the most significant pathway that DE mRNAs involved in was ribosome pathway; in 2- vs 12-month-old testes, DE mRNAs were mainly involved in metabolism and physiological processes, and DE mRNAs were mainly involved in multiple metabolism and biosynthesis pathways. Subsequently, 76, 11 and 1 DE miR-Targets were identified in 2- vs 6-month-old, 2- vs 12-month-old, and 6- vs 12-month-old testes, respectively. 3 miR-Target regulatory networks were constructed based on these miR-Targets, which helped to elucidate the regulatory metabolism in Small Tail sheep testes development. Finally, 6 miRNAs and 7 mRNAs were selected to validate the RNA-seq data by RT-PCR.
