Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE32083: Transcriptomics of the traditional Japanese medicine juzentaihoto (JTX) on large intestines on germfree mice GSE32084: Transcriptomics of the traditional Japanese medicine juzentaihoto (JTX) on small intestines on germfree mice Refer to individual Series
Project description:Juzehtaihoto, a Japanese traditional medicine has been used for the treatment of various kinds of disease or disorders in an enteric-flora dependent manner. Here, we performed transcriptome analysis using Affymetrix GeneChip on small intestine (SI) of germ-free (GF) and specific pathogen free (SPF) mice of IQI, an inbred strain established from ICR.
Project description:Juzehtaihoto, a Japanese traditional medicine has been used for the treatment of various kinds of disease or disorders in an enteric-flora dependent manner. Here, we performed transcriptome analysis using Affymetrix GeneChip on small intestine (SI) of germ-free (GF) and specific pathogen free (SPF) mice of IQI, an inbred strain established from ICR. Male germ-free (GF) and specific pathogen-free (SPF) IQI mice were bred and maintained in the laboratory of Central Institute for Experimental Animals (CIEA, Kawasaki, Kanagwa, Japan). GF mice were housed in a Trexler-type flexible film isolator in a standard germ free state and screened on a weekly basis for germ-free status by sampling feces sterilely and culturing on MRS-agar plates under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. All the GF, SPF, ex-GF mice were kept in a 12: 12-h light/dark cycle and at a temperature of 22±2°C. Nine week old mice (n=3) were sacrificed by cervical dislocation and the intestines were dissected. comparison of the mice with or without enteric flora

Here, we performed transcriptome analysis using Affymetrix GeneChip on large intestine (LI) of germ-free (GF) and specific pathogen free (SPF) mice of IQI, an inbred strain established from ICR, and BALB/c SPF mice.

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.
