Project description:Macaca fascicularis (long-tailed, cynomolgus, or crab-eating macaque) is a highly advantageous model in which to study human cochlea with regard to both evolutionary proximity and physiological similarity of the auditory system. To better understand the properties of primate cochlear function, we analyzed the genes predominantly expressed in M. fascicularis cochlea.
Project description:RNA samples from brain, cerebellum, liver, and testis of 3-year-old make Macaca fascicularis was hybridized to the M.fascicularis GeneChip, which was designed by the Laboratory of Genetic Resources, National Institute of Biomedical Innovation. Keywords: Control study
Project description:We sutured the left eyelid of one-month-old Macaca Fascicularis. Three months later, their LGN tissues were captured and mRNA sequencing was carried out to study the effect of monocular deprivation on gene expression in Macaca Fascicularis.
