Microarray dataset of gene transcription in mouse microglia and peripheral monocytes in contextual fear conditioning.

ABSTRACT: The transcription profile of microglia related to fear conditioning remains unclear. Here, we used Illumina MouseWG-6v2 microarrays to investigate the gene transcription changes in microglia and peripheral monocytes after contextual fear conditioning of C57BL/6 J mice. Mice were trained with or without a single minimized footshock stimulation (0-s or 2-s, 0.4 mA) and re-exposed to the training context without footshock for three different durations 24 h later: 0 min (FS0), 3 min (FS3), or 30 min (FS30). Whole brain microglia and peripheral monocytes were prepared 24 h after re-exposure using a neural tissue dissociation kit, including non-footshock controls for two re-exposure durations (Con3 and Con30). The data can be valuable for researchers interested in glial cells and neurotransmissi
