Project description:We measured gene expression in the adrenal glands of the Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto rat (WKY) using Affymetrix RG-U34A GeneChips. All rats were aged-matched at 4-weeks. The rats were obtained from the colonies at the Univeristy of California San Diego, La Jolla, CA. Keywords: other

Project description:We have used Affymetrix microarray-driven gene profiling to comprehensively describe the expression of mRNAs in the brainstem and hypothalamus in the adult male spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) as compared to its normotensive parental Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) strain.
Project description:We have used Affymetrix microarray-driven gene profiling to comprehensively describe the expression of mRNAs in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) in the adult male spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) as compared to its normotensive parental Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) strain. Keywords: Gene expression
Project description:We report 10x Genomics based single-cell sequencing of the dissociated Wistar and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat (SHR) stellate ganglia at 5-6 weeks of age.
Project description:We investigated morphometric structure and gene expression by microarray analysis in a small diameter artery, branch of the saphenous artery (a resistance artery), in representative models of renin-angiotensin system (RAS)-dependent and glucocorticoid hypertension, using the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-induced hypertensive rat, respectively. Sixteen-week-old male Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and age-matched spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were used. Keywords: Comparison of global gene expression in resistance arteries of normotensive and genetically hypertensive rats and ACTH-treated rats.
Project description:The objective of this study was to profile circular RNAs (circRNAs) in rat genetic models of cardiovascular and renal disease. Renal profiles were obtained from the Dahl Salt-Sensitive rat (S), the Dahl Salt-Resistant rat (R), the Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat (SHR) and the Wistar Kyoto rat (WKY).

Sixteen-week-old male Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and age-matched spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were used. Experiment Overall Design: There were 3 experimental groups: Group 1: 16-week male Wistar-Kyoto rats; Group 2: 16-week male Wistar-Kyoto rats treated with ACTH (0.1mg/kg/day) subcutaneously, for 4 weeks prior to sampling (i.e. during weeks 12-16 of life) ; Group3: 16-week male SHR (spontaneously hypertensive) rats. There were 3 replicate hybridizations in each experimental group. Due to the low yield of total RNA obtained from the arterial sections, each replicate was composed of RNA pooled from 2-3 different rats.
Project description:In order to investigate the molecular basis of carotid body chemoreceptor sensitisation in the Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat (SHR) we have sequenced the transcriptomes of bilateral carotid body samples from aged-matched, male SHR and control Wistar-Kyoto rats.
Project description:We have used Affymetrix microarray-driven gene profiling to comprehensively describe the expression of mRNAs in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) in the adult male spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) as compared to its normotensive parental Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) strain. Keywords: Gene expression NTS was dissected from hypertensive (SHR) and normotensive (WKY) strains of rat. For each structure, 10 independent Affymetrix Genechip 230 2.0 experiments were performed (5 SHR, 5 WKY), with each chip representing an independent biological replication (n=5).
