Project description:Analysis of changes in gene expression following hepatocyte specific deletion of GATA4 in adult mice. Results showed that the subset of differentially expressed genes had liver specific ontologies. Total RNA isolated from hepatocytes of AAV8-Tbg-Cre injected GATA4 fl/fl mice was compared to total RNA isolated from AAV-Tbg-GFP injected GATA4 fl/fl mice.
Project description:Analysis of changes in gene expression following hepatocyte specific deletion of GATA4 and GATA6 in adult mice. Results showed that the subset of differentially expressed genes had liver specific ontologies. Total RNA isolated from hepatocytes of AAV8-Tbg-Cre injected GATA4,6 fl/fl mice was compared to total RNA isolated from AAV-Tbg-GFP injected GATA4,6 fl/fl mice.
Project description:This study reports the baseline effects of systemic (i.v.) administration of AAV8-TBG-null and AAV8-TBG-Cre on the liver of male, wild-type C57Black6/J mice. We performed polyA RNAseq of whole liver lysates from mice 2, 4 and 7 days post AAV8-TBG-null or AAV8-TBG-Cre administration and compared their transcriptome with that of male mice of similar age that didn't receive any AAV8 (day 0). We report some changes in gene expression of genes related to circadian rythm and response to infection at certain timepoints. Our results demonstrate that AAV8-TBG vectors can have minimal effects on the murine liver transcriptome, something that needs to be considered and controlled when using this system for mouse experiments. Finally, we hope that this dataset will help other researchers to correctly interpret data obtained from mouse experimentation using AAV8-TBG vectors.
Project description:RNA expression from whole pancreatic tissue was assessed by RNA-seq following 4 hours into cerulein-induced pancreatitis in mice lacking the transcription factor ATF3 or congenic C57Bl6 mice. Three mice were used for each group and sequncing performed by Toronto Genomics Centre.
Project description:The goal of this study is to investigate how FOXA1 and FOXA2 regulates gene expression in Ythdc1-HKO livers. Four-week-old male Ythdc1flox/flox mice were injected with AAV8-TBG-βGal via tail vein. Four-week-old male Ythdc1-HKO mice were injected with equal amounts of AAV8-TBG-βGal, AAV8-TBG-FOXA1, or AAV8-TBG-FOXA2 via tail vein. Mice were sacrificed three weeks later.Total RNA was extracted from liver tissues using Tripure Isolation Reagent (Roche, Mannheim, Germany). RNA-seq was performed using Illumina novaseq x plus (n=3 for each group).
Project description:Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of MDA-MB-231 tumours with or without MTHFD2 knockdown and decitabine treatment. The Illimuna Infinium MethylationEPIC DNA Beadchip v-1-0 B3 was used to obtain DNA methylation performed by The Centre for Applied Genomics in Toronto, Canada.
