Project description:Primary murine neocortical cultures are a common model for investigating fundamental attributes of neuronal signalling. Here we utilized an Affymetrix GeneChip platform to measure expression of various genes in vitro in order to chracterize our cortical cultures.
Project description:Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 GeneChip microarrays were used to analyze murine neocortical and cerbellar astrocytes generated from postnatal (PN) day 1 wild-type (ICR) pups. Experiment Overall Design: Three samples each of murine neocortical and cerebellar astrocytes were analyzed.
Project description:Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 GeneChip microarrays were used to analyze murine neocortical and cerbellar astrocytes generated from postnatal (PN) day 1 wild-type (ICR) pups. Keywords: neocortical astrocyte, cerebellar astrocyte, murine, postnatal day 1
Project description:Gene expression from primary neuronal, astrocytic, oligodendrocytic and microglial cultures, as well as from RNA mixtures thereof. Keywords: Primary cell cultures
Project description:To test the effect of fatostatin on gene expression patterns in microglia, we treated mouse (C57BL/6) primary microglial cultures with fatostatin (5microM, 72h) versus DMSO-only control and quantified gene expression using 3' end labeling. Sequencing libraries were prepared using the Lexogen QuantSeq 3'Forward kit and sequencing of single end reads (1 x 65) was performed on an Illumina HiSeq 4000 at 5M reads per sample. For processed data, reads were aligned against GRCm38 using STAR. Transcripts were quantified and annotated against GencodeM11 using Rsubread. Samples were normalized with CQN.
