Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to detect differentially expressed genes, between wild-type (WT) and Adgrg2-/Y (Adgrg2-KO) caput epididymis by RNA sequencing Methods: Caput epididymal mRNA profiles of 8-week-old WT and Adgrg2-KO mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina NovaSeq6000. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes was slightly downregulated in Adgrg2-KO caput epididymis compared with WT one.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to detect differentially expressed genes, between Wild type (WT) and Nell2-/- (Nell2-KO) caput epididymis by RNA sequencing Methods: Caput epidiymal mRNA profiles of 14-week-old wild-type (WT) and NEL-like 2 knockout (Nell2-KO) mice were generated by deep sequencing, in quadplicate, using Illumina GAIIx. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts; 26 genes showed differential transcript expression between the WT and Nell2-KO caput epididymis, with WT RPKM ≥100, a fold change ≤0.1, and t-test p value <0.05. Altered expression of 26 genes identified. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes were downregulated in Nell2-KO caput epididymis compared with WT one.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to detect differentially expressed genes, between wild-type (WT) efferent duct ligation (EDL)-treated, and W/Wv caput epididymis by RNA sequencing Methods: The EDL treatment of WT mice was performed from 10 weeks old and continued for 4 weeks until tissue sampling at 14 weeks old. Caput epididymal mRNA profiles of 14-week-old WT, EDL, and W/Wv mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina NovaSeq6000. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes was downregulated in EDL or W/Wv caput epididymis compared with WT one.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to detect differentially expressed genes, between Nicol +/- (Nicol-Het), Nicol-/- (Nicol-KO), and Ros1-/- (Ros1-KO) caput epididymis by RNA sequencing Methods: Caput epidiymal mRNA profiles of 14-week-old Nicol-Het, Nicol-KO, and Ros1-KO mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina NovaSeq6000. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes were downregulated in Nicol-KO caput epididymis compared with Nicol-Het one. The gene downregulation of Nicol-KO caput epididymis was similar to that of Ros1-KO one.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to detect differentially expressed genes, among Wild type caput, corpus, and cauda epididymis by RNA sequencing Methods: Caput, corpus, and cauda epidiymal mRNA profiles of 9-month-old wild-type mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina GAIIx. Results: RNA-seq data identified transcripts differentially expressed in caput, corpus, and cauda epididymis. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes were differentially regulated in caput, corpus, and cauda epididymis.
Project description:We attempted to analyze the effect of adipocyte-specific knockout of Prmt1 in energy homeostasis in mice. By analyzing the transcriptomics of epididymal primary adipocytes from male mice with wild type and adipocyte-specific Prmt1 knockout mice, we provide the insight into the collective roles of Prmt1 in epididymal white adipose tissues.
Project description:We attempted to analyze the effect of adipocyte-specific knockout of Crtc2 in in aging. By analyzing the transcriptomics of epididymal primary adipocytes from male mice with wild type and adipocyte-specific Crtc2 knockout mice in response to aging, we provide the insight into the collective roles of Crtc2 in epididymal white adipose tissues upon aging.
