Project description:To identify differentially expressed genes in the developmental mouse dorsal spinal cord, we characterized the global gene expression profiling of mouse embryonic dorsal spinal cord commissural neurons at E10.5, E11.5 and E12.5. We used the Affymetrix Mouse Exon 1.0 ST Array platform to analyze the gene expression profiling. We included the gene expression data obtained from dorsal spinal cord commissural neuron at different embryonic stage. 2 Biological replicates were performed.
Project description:NSC-34 cells produced by fusing mouse embryonic spinal cord motor neuron with neuroblastoma cells expressing reduced level of PGRN (NSC-34/ShPGRN), NSC-34 cells overexpressing hPGRN(NSC-34-/hPGRN) or vector controls were compared in triplicate
Project description:We performed ChIP-seq on a complex developing tissue (the spinal cord) at mouse embryonic day 12.5. Genome-wide binding sites of Mash1 were generated. ChIP-seq of Mash1/Ascl1 in a heterogeneous tissue.
Project description:Comparison of genomic data from neural progenitor cells derived from mouse embryonic stem cells under different experimetnal conditions in vitro and invivo. We conducted genome-wide RNA sequencing of immunoprecipitated specific ribosome-associated mRNA using RiboTag methods from: (i) mouse embryonic stem cell (ESC), (ii) derived neural progenitor cells, (iii) differentiated neural progenitor cells (in vitro), (iv) grafted neural progenitor cells (recovered from different in vivo tissue enivornments - healthy spinal cord, spinal cord injury lesions) and (v) host astrocytes using GFAp-Cre RiboTag mice.
Project description:The generation of cellular identity and diversity within the developing spinal cord is critically dependent on networks of gene expression controlled by transcription factors, such as Nuclear Factor One X (NFIX). NFIX has been identified as an important factor in promoting astrocyte formation during embryonic mouse spinal cord development. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of the transcriptional landscape controlled by NFIX within the developing spinal cord, here we performed microarray analysis on E14.5 wild-type and Nfix-/- mouse spinal cords, the age at which the expression of NFIX by neural progenitor cells lining the spinal central canal is strongest.
