Expression profiling of 3 and 24 months mouse skeletal muscle (RNA-seq)

ABSTRACT: Aging in multicellular organisms is characterized by gradual decline of organ functionality. To study the aging process, we used mRNA sequencing (mRNA-seq) to identify gene expression changes during aging in healthy mice. Skeletal muscle tissues of wild-type mice at 3 months and 24 months of age were collected and mRNA-seq libraries were prepared and sequenced on a HiSeq2500 by single-end sequencing with 100 bp read length. Analysis of the expression profiles of aged skeletal muscle tissues showed decreased mRNA levels of genes function in lipid metabolism, peptidase activity and response to stimulus.
