Project description:Epithelial cells were isolated by FACS from the mammary glands of pubescent (5 week old), estrus adult (10 week old) and diestrus adult (10 week old) female mice. Freshly sorted cells were submitted to a 10X Genomics Chromium System for single cell capture. cDNA synthesis and library preparation was done according to the protocol supplied by the manufacturer. Sequencing was carried out on an Illumina NextSeq500 sequencer using parameters recommended by 10X Genomics.
Project description:Mammary glands were collected from 8 pubescent (4.7-4.9 week-old) female mice and 8 adult (10 week old) female mice. Freshly sorted epithelial cells were submitted to a Fluidigm C1 System machine for single cell capture and cDNA synthesis. Cells were visualized under the microscope to ensure integrity of the captured single cells prior to cDNA preparation. Libraries were prepared using the Nextera XT kit and sequencing was carried out on an Illumina NextSeq 500 to achieve paired-end 75 bp reads.
Project description:The goal of the experiment was to carry out a transcriptome analysis of the three main epithelial cell populations of the mouse mammary gland, the basal/myoepithelial, luminal estrogen receptor negative (ER-) and luminal estrogen receptor positive (ER+) cells, to identify cell-type specific differences in gene expression. Three replicates arrays were carried out for each of the three populations (a total of nine arrays). Each replicate was a genuine biological replicate from RNA harvested from completely independent cell preparations. Each sample was isolated from preparations of mammary epithelium derived fourth mammary fat pads of 8 * 10 week old virgin female FVB mice. Each preparation was from a pool of 10 * 20 animals (20 * 40 fat pads).
Project description:Mammary fibroblasts (CD1 strain of mouse) that were exposed to BPA or oil control in utero were isolated from 12 week old mice. RNA was harvested and sequenced from the fibroblasts.
Project description:Epithelial cells were isolated by FACS from the mammary glands of adult (10 week old) female mice. A basal subpopulation of the epithelial cells was also isolated. Freshly sorted cells were submitted to a 10X Genomics Chromium System for single cell capture. cDNA synthesis and library preparation was done according to the protocol supplied by the manufacturer. Sequencing was carried out on an Illumina NextSeq500 sequencer to achieve 75 bp paired-end reads.
Project description:Mammary glands were collected from pre-pubescent (2 weeks old), pubescent (4.7- 4.9 weeks old) and adult (10 week-old) female mice. Freshly sorted epithelial cells were submitted to a Fluidigm C1 System machine for single cell capture and cDNA synthesis. Cells were visualized under a microscope to ensure integrity of the captured single cells prior to cDNA preparation. Libraries were prepared using the Nextera XT kit and sequencing was carried out on an Illumina Hiseq 2000 to achieve 100 bp paired-end reads.
Project description:Analysis of mammary glands from tet-inducible (rtTA) transgenic mice expressing cyclin D1 (Ccnd1). MMTV-rtTA transgenic mice (MMTV-Mouse Mammary Tumor Virus promoter) were cross-mated to cyclin D1 transgenic mice under the control of the tet operon. 8-week-old tetracycline-inducible cyclin D1/rtTA bi-transgenic pregnant female mice (12 days postcoitus) were treated with doxycycline through drinking water supplementation at a final concentration of 2 mg/ml. Control mice were rtTA transgenics alone and were treated in the same manner. After 7 days of doxycycline treatment, the mice were sacrificed and mammary glands taken for RNA isolation. Results provide insight into the in vivo gene expression pattern regulated by cyclin D1 through acute induction.
Project description:To identify the age dependent radiation response in C3H mouse bone marrow cells. Changes in gene expression in 1 week old and 8 weeks old C3H mouse (female) bone marrow after 2Gy irradiation. Bone marrow samples were collected un-irradiated control, 6 hours and 24 hours after irradiation. Three mice were used at each time course.
