Project description:In this study, we employed high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) to identify the Smad3-dependent lncRNAs related to renal inflammation and fibrosis in Smad3 knockout (KO) mouse models of unilateral ureteral obstructive nephropathy (UUO) and immunologically-induced anti-glomerular basement membrane glomerulonephritis (anti-GBM GN). 12 kidney tissue samples of Smad3 KO/WT mice from normal control, UUO at day 5 or anti-GBM GN at day 10 models (n=2 in each group) for whole transcriptome RNA-sequencing.
Project description:CD37 is a tetraspanin with important functions in the immune system. Here we have isolated RNA from murine splenocytic B cells of WT and CD37 KO mice to check for differences in gene expression. These data are used to obtain genes that are differentially expressed in response to loss of CD37.
