Project description:RNA-Seq was performed on pancreatic islets from four transgenic mouse strains affecting LKB1 and AMPK. A conditional LKB1 knockout strain was generated. Double conditional knockouts for AMPK alpha1 and AMPK alpha2 were also generated. These conditional strains were crossed with RIP-Cre (driven by rat insulin promoter) or Ins1-Cre mice to generate LKB1 knockout and AMPK double knockout strains.
Project description:Gene expression was compared between E18.5 Gata4Gata6 double conditional knockout (cKO) small intestinal epithelium and E18.5 control mouse small intestinal epithleium. E18.5 mouse small intestine was collected from control and Gata4Gata6 double conditional knockout mice. Epithelial cells were isolated, and RNA was prepared. Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 gene arrays were used to interrogate gene expression. Data was analyzed using dChip software.
Project description:Gene expression analysis of 2-month-old APP/APLP2 double-conditional Knockout (N-dCKO) mice and littermate APLP2 knockout controls, APP knockout and wildtype controls. Mouse hippocampus were dissected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
