Project description:Global gene expression of the rat soleus muscle was assessed with microarrays after 11 days of intermittent physical inactivity (10 hr/day) and compared to normally caged rats with voluntary standing and intermittent cage movements. Keywords: between group design
Project description:Global gene expression of the rat soleus muscle was assessed with microarrays after 12 hrs of physical inactivity and also after 12 hours of physical inactivity immediately followed by 2 hrs treadmill walking and compared to normally caged rats with voluntary standing and intermittent cage movements. Keywords: between group design
Project description:Global gene expression of the rat soleus muscle was assessed with microarrays after 11 days of intermittent physical inactivity (10 hr/day) and compared to normally caged rats with voluntary standing and intermittent cage movements. Experiment Overall Design: Rats were prevented from standing on the their hindlimbs for 10 hrs/day for 11 days and compared to caged rats with normal standing/ambulatory activity. RNA was extracted from soleus muscles and each array represents the pooling of the RNA from the soleus of 4-5 different rats.
Project description:Global gene expression of the rat soleus muscle was assessed with microarrays after 12 hrs of physical inactivity and also after 12 hours of physical inactivity immediately followed by 2 hrs treadmill walking and compared to normally caged rats with voluntary standing and intermittent cage movements. Experiment Overall Design: Rats were either prevented from standing on the their hindlimbs for 12 hrs or were prevented from standing on the their hindlimbs for 12 hrs and then immediately engaged in 2 hours treadmill walking and compared to caged rats with normal standing/ambulatory activity. RNA was extracted from soleus muscles and each array represents the pooling of the RNA from the soleus of 8-10 different rats.
Project description:In order to establish a rat embryonic stem cell transcriptome, mRNA from rESC cell line DAc8, the first male germline competent rat ESC line to be described and the first to be used to generate a knockout rat model was characterized using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis.
