Project description:A series of RNA-Seq experiment were conducted to study the transcriptome changes of olfactory sensory neurons during the critical period. We conducted RNA-seq of the olfactory epithelia at P0, P3, P7, P14, and P21 to identify the gene expression changes in the olfactory epithelia. We also performed RNA-Seq experiment of the olfactory epithelia from Kir2.1 transgenic mice at the same time points to understand the effect of neural activity deprivation on the transcriptome.
Project description:This experiment studies the gene expression in the mature olfactory sensory neurons and the intermidiate neuronal progenitors in the olfactory epithelia during the critical period. Mature olfactory sensory neurons from OMP-GFP mice and intermediate neuronal progenitors in the olfactory epithelia from Neurog1-GFP mice were FACS purified. PolyA RNA profiles at P2, P3, P7, P9, and P16 were generated by RNA-Seq.
Project description:Single cell RNA-Seq experiment was conducted using mouse olfactory epithelia at E18.5, P14, and adult stage to study the gene expression in different cell types, including olfactory sensory neurons and their progenitor cells.
Project description:KLF7 null mice show profound axonal growth defects in the olfactory epithelium. The goal of this study was the identification of potential KLF7 target genes in olfactory sensory neurons. Experiment Overall Design: Olfactory epithelia were isolated from 3 wildtype and 3 mutant 1 day old pups and the RNA isolated, labeled and hybridized to one chip each.
