Project description:We performed very deep small RNA sequencing on one sample of medial entorhinal cortex of a Long Evans rat aged P23 to see which small RNAs could be detected in this brain area.
Project description:We report the first full transcriptome analysis of layer II and deep layers of the medial and lateral entorhinal cortex during postnatal development. Our analysis showed that postnatal timepoint was the most important element in entorhinal cortex transcriptional dynamics, followed by laminar differences. There were fewer differentially expressed genes between the medial and lateral parts of the entorhinal cortex, and most of these were found in layer II.
Project description:To examine how miRNAs differ between medial entorhinal cortex layers during postnatal development, we analyzed the miRNA expression in layer II and the deep layers (III-VI) at postnatal ages P2, P9, P23 and P45 in wildtype Long Evans rats. The expression of the two most significantly differentially expressed miRNAs were validated by in situ hybridization.
