Project description:The purpose of this experiment is to compare the host response of C57BL6/J mice to that of CXCR3 knockout mutant mice in response to SARS MA15 virus infections. Groups of 10 week old C57BL6 mice or CXCR3 knockout mice were infected with SARS MA15 at a dose of 10^5 PFU or mock infected. Mice were euthanized on days 2, 4 and 7 post infection to measure virus load and isolate samples for measurement of virus load, lung pathology, and transcriptional. Mock infected animals were also harvested at each time point. Mice were weighed every 24 hours to measure general disease progression and any mouse approaching 30% weight loss were euthanized.

Project description:This purpose of this experiment was to investigate the transcriptional differences between C57BL6, PLAT knock-out mice infected with SARS MA15 virus.
Project description:This purpose of this experiment was to investigate the transcriptional differences between C57BL6, PLAT knock-out mice infected with SARS MA15 virus. Overview of Experiment: Groups of 20 week old C57BL6 and PLAT knock-out mice were infected with SARS MA15 virus. Infections were done at 10^5 PFU or time-matched mock infected. Time points were 4 and 7 d.p.i. There were 2-4 animals/dose/time point. Lung samples were collected for virus load, transcriptional and proteomics analysis. Weight loss and animal survival were also monitored.
Project description:This purpose of this experiment was to investigate the transcriptional differences between C57BL6, TIMP1 and Serpine1 knock-out mice infected with SARS MA15 virus. Overview of Experiment: Groups of 20 week old C57BL6, TIMP1 and Serpine1 (PAI1) knock-out mice were infected with SARS MA15 virus. Infections were done at 10^4 PFU or time-matched mock infected. Time points were 4 and 7 d.p.i. There were 2-4 animals/dose/time point. Lung samples were collected for virus load, transcriptional and proteomics analysis. Weight loss and animal survival were also monitored.
Project description:This purpose of this experiment was to investigate the transcriptional differences between mice infected with SARS MA15 or SARS nsp16 mutant viruses. Overview of Experiment: Groups of 20 week old C57BL6 mice were infected with wild type SARS MA15 or SARS nsp16 mutant viruses. Infections were done at 10^5 PFU or time-matched mock infected. Time points were 1, 2, 4 and 7 d.p.i. There were 3-4 animals/dose/time point. Lung samples were collected for virus load, transcriptional and proteomics analysis. Weight loss and animal survival were also monitored.
Project description:This purpose of this experiment was to investigate the transcriptional differences between mice infected with SARS MA15 or SARS deltaORF6 mutant viruses. Overview of Experiment: Groups of 20 week old C57BL6 mice were infected with wild type SARS MA15 or SARS deltaORF6 mutant viruses. Infections were done at 10^5 PFU or time-matched mock infected. Time points were 1, 2, 4 and 7 d.p.i. There were 3 animals/dose/time point. Lung samples were collected for virus load, transcriptional and proteomics analysis. Weight loss and animal survival were also monitored.
