Project description:Analysis of colonic epithelial cell gene expression in germ-free, Bacteroides uniformis-colonized, and Clostridia-colonized gnotobiotic mice. Bacteria were isolated from our SPF mouse facility and were used to selectively colonize germ-free mice.
Project description:Analysis of colonic epithelial cell gene expression in germ-free, Bacteroides uniformis-colonized, and Clostridia-colonized gnotobiotic mice. Bacteria were isolated from our SPF mouse facility and were used to selectively colonize germ-free mice. Germ free mice were left germ free or were colonized with Bacteroides uniformis or a consortium of Clostridia. Total RNA was extraced from colonic epithelial cells.
Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Salmonella typhimurium in the ceca of germ-free and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron-monoassociated gnotobiotic mice. Comparison with response in MM-Glucose.
