Project description:Liver transcriptome profiling of liver specific miR-122 knockout (miR-122loxP/loxP Alb-Cre) and control (miR-122loxP/loxP) male mice. Expression profile of several hundred mRNAs that include miR-122 targets were altered in miR-122 KO livers. Loss of miR-122 in the germ line resulted in significant changes in hepatic gene expression profile. Among the upregulated genes many are direct targets of miR-122 GSM517838-GSM517847: Liver transcriptome profiling of liver specific miR-122 knockout and control male mice. Total liver RNA from 8 week old five control and five liver-specific miR-122 knock out male mice (C57/BL6J background) GSM791601-GSM791604: Liver transcriptome profiling of germ-line miR-122 knockout and control male mice. Liver RNA from 5 week old control (floxed) and miR-122KO mice were analyzed by mouse whole transcriptome profiling.
Project description:The human liver plays a vital role in meeting the body's metabolic needs and maintaining homeostasis. To address the molecular mechanisms of liver function, we integrated multiple gene expression datasets from microarray, MPSS, SAGE and EST platforms to generate a transcriptome atlas of the normal human liver. The integrated liver transcriptome data should provide a valuable resource for the in-depth understanding of human liver biology and liver disease. Microarray is one of these platforms. In this part, adult human liver tissues from 10 adult human were surgically resected due to hemangioma in the liver. The gene expression of normal human liver was detected by Microarray platform.
