Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility. Gene expression was measured in whole testis from males aged 62-86 days. Samples include 190 first generation lab-bred male offspring of wild-caught mice from the Mus musculus musculus - M. m. domesticus hybrid zone.
Project description:Histones were isolated from brown adipose tissue and liver from mice housed at 28, 22, or 8 C. Quantitative top- or middle-down approaches were used to quantitate histone H4 and H3.2 proteoforms. See published article for complimentary RNA-seq and RRBS datasets.
Project description:Aged hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) display myeloid-biased differentiation and reduced regenerative potential. In this study, we uncover that P-selectin (Selp) marks a subset of aged HSCs with reduced repopulation capacity. This population of HSCs expresses a prominent aging transcriptome. Overexpression of Selp in young HSCs impaired long-term reconstitution potential and repressed erythropoiesis. We show that IL-1β is elevated in aged bone marrow and administration of IL-1β induces expression of Selp and other aging-associated genes in HSCs. Finally, we demonstrate that transplantation of aged HSCs into young recipients restores a young-like transcriptome, specifically by repressing pro-inflammatory pathways, highlighting the important role of the bone marrow microenvironment in HSC aging.

Project description:To identify the candidate miRNAs that might compromise wound healing and contribute to the age-associated delay in wound repair, global miRNA profiling was performed in mouse back telogen skin of young (8-week-old) and aged (2-year-old) animals.
