Transcription profiling of rat fetal gubernaculum and testis of wildtype (LE/wt) and cryptorchid (LE/orl) animals

ABSTRACT: The Long Evans/orl (LE/orl) rat is an animal model of inherited undescended testis (UDT). To explore genetic mechanisms of UDT, we studied differential gene expression in LE/orl and LE wild type (LE/wt) fetal gubernaculum and testis. Analyses of differentially expressed probe sets linked below as supplementary files:; Analysis_methods.txt [A description of the analysis]; gub.txt [Genes differentially expressed in between wt and orl gubernacula]; testes.txt [Genes differentially expressed between wt and orl testes]; wt.txt [Genes differentially expressed in wt gubernacular development] Experiment Overall Design: Fetuses were harvested from timed matings of LE/wt and LE/orl rats at gestational day (GD) 17, 18, 19, and 20. Single gubernaculum and testis were removed from male fetuses and to
