Project description:Transcriptional profiling of mouse embryonic kidneys (E13.5) comparing UB HDAC1,2-/- kidneys with wild type kidneys. Studies in our lab showed that histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and 2 (HDAC2) perform redundant, yet essential functions in the developing mouse ureteric bud (UB) tissue. Double deletion of HDAC1 and HDAC2 in the UB results in impaired UB branching morphogenesis, followed by severe kidney dysgenesis. The goal of the microarray analysis was to identify the genetic pathways controlled by HDAC1 and 2 in the UB. Two-condition experiment: E13.5 mutant kidneys (UB HDAC1,2-/-) vs. E13.5 wild type kidneys . Biological replicates: 4 control replicates, 4 UB HDAC1,2-/- replicates. Two-color Agilent 4x44k chips with dye-swaps on 2 of 4 arrays.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of cultured CD1 mouse embryonic kidneys (E13.5) comparing HDACi-treated kidneys with control drug-treated kidneys. Studies in our lab showed that pharmacological inhibition of HDAC activity in ex-vivo cultured metanephroi results in extensive defects in kidney development, including impaired UB branching, tubulogenesis, and glomerulogenesis, accompanied by cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.The goal of the microarray analysis was to elucidate the morphogenetic pathways affected by HDACi. Two-condition experiment, HDACi-treated E13.5 kidneys (Scriptaid 2.0 μg/ml x 6hrs) vs. Control drug-treated E13.5 kidneys (Nullscript 2.0 μg/ml x 6hrs). Biological replicates: 3 control replicates, 3 HDACi-treated replicates. Two-color Agilent 4x44k chips with dye-swap on 2 of 4 arrays.
