Project description:The aim of the study was to investigate whether the trefoil peptide genes, in concerted action with a miRNA regulatory network, were contributing to nutritional maintrenance. Using a Tff3 knock-out mouse model, 21 specific miRNAs were noted to be significantly deregulated when compared to the wild type strain.
Project description:The aim of the study was to investigate whether the trefoil peptide genes, in concerted action with a miRNA regulatory network, were contributing to nutritional maintrenance. Using a Tff2 knock-out mouse model, 48 specific miRNAs were noted to be significantly deregulated when compared to the wild type strain.
Project description:Muscle (M), myotendinous (J) and tendon (T) tissues were isolated from murine wild-type soleus muscle-tendon units. Tissues were either: 1) fractionated prior to LC-MS/MS analysis of the CS and IN fractions; or 2) homogenized prior to LC-MS/MS analysis of the homogenate. Samples were analyzed by Q Exactive (Thermo Scientific).
