Project description:The objective of this study was to investigate changes in rat cardiac ventricle transcriptome with age. It was run along similar with other tissues to look for common ageing signatures. Particular interest would be cardiomyocytes, but this is bulk RNA-sequencing.
Project description:mRNA gene expression was measured in rats at 6 (young), 26 (adult) and 52 (older) weeks of age at the time of fracture. Samples were collected at 0, 0.4, 1, 2, 4, and 6 weeks after fracture. RNA from two rats were pooled for each Affymetrix Rat U34A array. Keywords = rat Keywords = fracture Keywords = age Keywords = time Keywords = femur Keywords: time-course
Project description:Our prior studies indicat age-dependent contralateral axonal sprouting following unilateral lesion of magnocellular neurons in the supraoptic nucleus. We performed Oxford Nanopore sequencing of the rat supraoptic nucleus to determine changes in DNA methylation with age.
Project description:mRNA gene expression was measured in intact female Sprague-Dawley rats at 6 (young), 26 (adult) and 52 (older) weeks of age at the time of fracture. Samples were collected at 0, 0.4, 1, 2, 4, and 6 weeks after fracture. RNA from two rats were pooled for each Affymetrix Rat U34A array. Mid-shaft, simple, transverse left femoral fractures were induced after retrograde intramedullary rod fixation with a Bonnarens and Einhorn device. Samples were collected from one third of the femoral length, centered on the fracture site, including the external callus, cortical bone, and marrow elements. Keywords = rat Keywords = fracture Keywords = age Keywords = time Keywords = femur Keywords: other
Project description:Study of rat femur fracture healing in young (6 weeks old), adult (26 weeks old), and older (52 weeks old) rats with samples collected at 0 time (no fracture) and at 0.4, 1, 2, 4, and 6 weeks after fracture. RNA from two rats were pooled for each array. Keywords = rat, femur, fracture, age, time Keywords: time-course
Project description:Our prior studies indicat age-dependent contralateral axonal sprouting following unilateral lesion of magnocellular neurons in the supraoptic nucleus. To understand the changes in the transcriptome that underlies this phenomenon, we performed RNA-seq and functional analysis of the rat supraoptic nucleus to determine changes in gene expression with age.
