Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of Differentially Expressed Genes in Liver Regeneration After Combined Treatment With Ethanol And Carbon Tetrachloride

ABSTRACT: Purpose: The goals of this study are to use NGS-derived liver transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) and identify differentially expressed genes in regenerating livers that were treated with ethanol and carbon tetrachloride. Methods: Liver mRNA profiles were generated from ethanol/CCl4-treated floxed homozytoes and Ctgf conditional knockout mice by deep sequencing, in duplicate, using Illumina GAIIx. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assay. Results: Ctgf deficiency was associated with 220 downregulated genes and 29 upregulated genes whereas Yap1 null livers had 351 downregulated genes and 287 upregulated genes after ethanol/CCl4 induced liver damage Conclusions: This study provides detailed analysis of liver transcriptomes in absence of Ctgf or Yap1 genes during ethanol/CCl4-induced injury, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology.
