Project description:Mouse tibialis anterior muscles were electroporated with Nr2f6-myc plasmid or pCMV6 empty vector in the contralateral leg. After 9 days, muscles were collected, and the RNA extracted and processed for microarray analysis.
Project description:We generated transgenic mice expressing constitutively SOCS-3 specifically in skeletal muscle. SOCS proteins are implicated in the negative regulation of various pathways including insulin signaling pathway. Our transgenic mice are predisposed to obesity and systemic insulin resistance compared to control mice. We used microarrays to detail the variations of gene expression in muscle from transgenic mice versus controls. Keywords: transgenic, tibialis anterior, SOCS-3
Project description:Transcription profiling of skeletal muscle (tibialis anterior) of 5-week-old male wild type and myostatin null mice given ad libitum access to 20ppm clenbuterol hydrochloride in drinking water or plain tap water for 2 weeks. The objective of the study was to determine overlap in the mechanisms of muscle hypertrophy of the two models.
Project description:Genome-wide gene expression analysis on tibialis anterior muscle from 2-month-old nebulin SH3 domain deleted (Neb∆SH3) mice compared to wildtype. Total RNA was obtained from biological triplicates of tibialis anterior muscle from 2-month-old nebulin SH3 domain deleted (Neb∆SH3) mice compared to wildtype.
