Project description:PGR genome occupancy and H3K27ac histone mark profiles in pregnant mouse uterine specimens were documented by ChIP-seq to investigate downstream targets of the progesterone receptor and candidate partner transcription regulators.
Project description:Progesterone signaling is crucial for pregnancy. To investigate the role of myometrial progesterone receptor in support of pregnancy, genome-wide gene expression profiles of pregnant uterine tissues from myometrial PGR knockout and control mice were profiled by RNAseq. The transcriptomic alterations in response to PGR loss permit identification of the underlying molecular mechanisms by which progesterone and PGR control myometrial homeostasis for pregnancy.
Project description:We report the RNAseq-based mRNA and microRNA transcriptome profiles of gestation day 21 female rat liver and placenta following oral ketoconazole exposure from gestation day 6 to 20. A treatment-related change in mRNA and microRNA levels was observed in both liver and placenta.
Project description:Changes of Cytokines and chemokines profiles were sucessfully determined between mouse non-treated vs LPS treated pregnant uteri using Qiagen PCR array.
Project description:To gain insight on the epigenomic environment of the pegnant uterus tissues, the Hi-C assay was emloyed to comprehensively document the chromatin conformation of the genome at gestation 13.
Project description:To identify genes differentially expressed in the glandless uterus, whole uteri were collected from control (uterine glands present) and PUGKO (no uterine glands) mice at day of pseudopregnancy (DOPP) 3.5 (day DOPP 0.5= vaginal plug). Microarray analysis identified differentially expressed genes in the glandless uteri of PUGKO mice as compared to control mice. Whole uteri (control wild type n=4; PUGKO n=4) were analyzed for differences in their transcriptome using a mouse microarray.
