Project description:We wished to investigate the role of E-cadherin loss in our mouse parietal cell/pre-parietal cell E-cadherin knock-out, p53 knock-out, oncogenic Kras induced model of gastric cancer. As such, we isolated RNA from stomach tissue from our E-cadherin knock-out model (Atp4b-Cre;Cdh1(fl/fl);Kras(LSL-G12D/+);Trp53(fl/fl);Rosa26(LSL-YFP/LSL-YFP)) and our E-cadherin heterozygous model (Atp4b-Cre;Cdh1(fl/+);Kras(LSL-G12D/+);Trp53(fl/fl);Rosa26(LSL-YFP/LSL-YFP)). We then performed a microarray on this stomach tissue from four independent mice of each genotype. Differentially expressed genes were identified and gene set overlap analysis was used to identify pathways enriched in one model over the other.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of thymocytes from wild type and Nsd2 knock out (KO) and Nsd2 knock in (KI). The 906th Proline of Nsd2 was substituted to Leucine in Nsd2 KI by gene editing. The Illumina Infinium Mouse methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 270,000 CpGs in thymocytes. Samples included 2 wild type, 2 heterozygous knock out, 1 heterozygous knock in, and 1 homozygous knock in.
