Project description:Our goal was to develop a transcriptomic description of affected alopecic skin from aged C3H/HeJ mice. Affected skin from 3 mice was compared to skin from similarly aged but unaffected C3H/HeJ mice.
Project description:The C3H/HeJ grafted model of alopecia areata was used to determine the efficacy of systemic baricitinib at preventing alopecia or treating established disease. The efficacy of topical baricitinib at treating established alopecia in the C3H/HeJ grafted model was also assessed. Microarrays were performed on skin RNA at week 0 and week 12 after starting treatment in all models.

Project description:Inbred mouse strains C57BL/6J (B6) and C3H/HeJ (C3H) exhibit a marked difference in their susceptibility to atherosclerosis and the arterial wall has proven to be a source of the difference in atherosclerosis susceptibility. Genome-wide gene expression analysis was conducted in aortic walls of the two strains. Total RNA was extracted from aortas of 6-week-old female B6 and C3H apoE-deficient (apoE-/-) mice fed a chow or Western diet. 1514 genes in chow fed mice and 590 genes in Western fed mice were found to be differentially expressed between the two strains. RNA was extracted from aorta using a Trizol protocol. Total RNA was pooled in an equal amount from 4 mice for each group. Standard Affymetrix procedures were performed using 8ug of total RNA. Microarrays were used to detect gene expression in aortic walls of two apoE-deficient mouse strains when fed a chow or western diet.

Project description:The purpose of this experiment was to determine the expression traits in animals from F2 intercross of inbred strains C57BL/6J, C3H/HeJ. (N=309, 164 males and 145 females).
