Project description:Zinc-finger genes Fezf1 and Fezf2 encode transcriptional repressors. Fezf1 and Fezf2 are expressed in the early neural stem/progenitor cells and control neuronal differentiation in mouse dorsal telencephalon. We compared gene expression profiles of rostral forebrains, which contain the telencephalon and the rostral part of the diencephalon, from embryonic day (E) 9.5, E10.5, and E12.5 wild-type control and Fezf1-/- Fezf2 -/- mouse embryos. The forebrain rostral to the caudal limit of the lateral ventricles was isolated manually from E9.5, E10.5, and E12.5 wild-type and Fezf1-/- Fezf2-/- mice. Total RNAs were isolated by Separsol-RNA I and were used for microarray analyses.

Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility. Gene expression was measured in whole testis from males aged 62-86 days. Samples include 190 first generation lab-bred male offspring of wild-caught mice from the Mus musculus musculus - M. m. domesticus hybrid zone.

Project description:The goal of the study was to compare gene expression of P0 wild-type, P0 Fezf2-/- cortices, and Fezf2-/-; Fezf2-EnR cortices. Total RNAs were isolated from P0 cortices dissected from wild-type (n=3), Fezf2-/- mice (n=4), and Fezf2-/-; Fezf2-EnR cortices (n=2), following Qiagen RNAeasy kit instruction.Sequence libraries were made following Illumina RNA PolyA library preparation guide.The libaries were pair-end sequenced (150nt per end). Differentially expressed genes were identified by DESEQ.
Project description:The aim of this study was to assess whether chronic treatment with RPV can modulate the progression of chronic liver disease, especially of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), through a nutritional model in wild-type mice Mice were daily treated with RPV (p.o.) and fed with normal or high fat diet during 3 months to induce fatty liver disease
