Project description:We used microarrays to distinguish the gene expression differences among different time points after injury. We generated L4-6 dorsal root ganglia (DRG) tissues and proximal sciatic nerve (SN) tissues (0.5cm) at 0d, 1d, 4d, 7d and 14d after sciatic nerve resection.
Project description:We used microarrays to distinguish the gene expression differences among different time points after injury We generated L4-6 dorsal root ganglia (DRG) tissues (0.5cm) at 0.5h, 3h, 6h and 9h after sciatic nerve resection
Project description:Genes are up and down regualted in DRG and spinal dorsal cord after peripheral nerve injury WT male adult with sciatic and femoral nerve transection 7 days, RNA was purified from ipilateral or contralateral L4-L6 DRGs or lumbar spinal dorsal cords
Project description:To compare the microRNAs (miRNAs) expression profile in the innervated soleus muscle and L4-L6 DRG neuronsafter sciatic nerve entrapment with a non-constrictive silastic tube, subsequent surgical decompression, and denervation injury. The experimental soleus muscles and dorsal root ganglions (DRGs) from each experimental group (sham control, denervation, entrapment, and decompression) were analyzed with an Agilent® rat miRNA array to detect dysregulated miRNAs Three-condition experiment, DRGs and soleus muscles of the rats receiving sciatic nerve denervation 6 months, sciatic nerve entrapment 6 months, and sciatic nerve entrapment 6 months then decompression for 3 months v.s. soleus muscle (sham control), Biological replicates: 1 control replicates, 3 experiment replicates
Project description:Changes in microRNA (miRNA) expression in the mouse L4 and L5 dorsal root ganglion following unilateral sciatic nerve transection. The timepoint of 7 days post-axotomy was chosen to capture miRNA expression profiles at a time when the injured neurons were beginning to regenerate. Two condition experiment, paired control DRG vs axotomised DRG following unilateral sciatic nerve transection. 3 biological replicates, one replicate per array. Dye swap in Replicate 2.
Project description:Purpose: compare the gene expression in whole sciatic DRG of aged mice preceding and after sciatic nerve injury (SNI) compared to the young Results: we found ageing-dependent gene expression changes repressing axonal regeneration following sciatic nerve injury
Project description:Analysis of gene expression in injured primary DRG with or without camptothecin (CPT) treatment after sciatic nerve crushing may help us identify critical molecular pathways related to axon regeneration. We performed RNA-sequencing of (i) Naive primary DRG tissues without injury, (ii) Primary DRG tissues with vehicle treatment different time-points (18, 24, 36 hours) after sciatic nerve injury, and (iii) Primary DRG tissues with camptothecin treatment different time-points (18, 24, 36 hours) after sciatic nerve injury.
Project description:The goal of this study was to analyze global gene expression in FACS purified Nav1.8 lineage sensory neurons, which include nociceptor neurons that detect damaging/noxious stimuli, following peripheral inflammation by intraplantar injection of Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA) or Sciatic Nerve Injury (SNI) by nerve transection. Nav1.8 Trangsgenic TdTomato+ neurons were purified from Lumbar L4-L6 dorsal root ganglia (DRG) by flow cytometry from mice on the ipsilateral or contralateral sides, following Complete Freund's Adjuvant injection (day 1) or sciatic nerve transection (day 5). Neurons were then analyzed for transcriptional gene expression by microarray analysis.
Project description:Purpose: compare the response of DRG neurons to indole-3-propionic acid treatment before and after sciatic nerve injury Results: we found that IPA induced transcription changes before and after injury inside the DRG tissue. In particular expression of immune system related genes
