ABSTRACT: Genome-wide analysis of tumor-infiltrating dendritic cells comparing C57BL/6 mice obtained from Jackson laboratories or Taconic farms, untreated or treated with Bifidobacterium.
Project description:Comparison of gene expression in dendritic cells (DCs) isolated from tumors of C57BL/6 obtained from Taconic farms vs DCs isolated from tumor of C57BL/6 mice obtained from Jackson Labortaory vs DCs isolated from tumors of C57BL/6 obtained from Taconic farms and orally gavaged with Bifidobacterium prior to tumor implantation
Project description:We used single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) to compare cells from the lungs of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infected mice between C57BL/6J mice and a cohort of wild-derived mouse lines MANA, MANB and MANC (Jackson Laboratories: ManA/NachJ #035354; ManB/NachJ #035355).
Project description:We performed Affymetrix MG-U74Av2 GeneChip experiements on mRNA from the adrenal glands of the BPH hypertensive and BPL hypotensive mouse strains. All mice were aged-matched at 5 weeks. We obtained the mice from Jackson Laboratories, Bar Harbor, ME. Keywords: other
Project description:Mice were obtained from in house breeding of C57BL/6J and C57BL/6J-Chr 1A/Na breeding pairs (Jackson Laboratories, USA). To produce F1 hybrids, C57BL/6J females were mated with C57BL/6J-Chr 1A/Na males. The F1 hybrids were intercrossed, producing 82 F2 progeny (41 males and 41 females). Microarray analysis was performed on six pairs of affected and non-affected male animals from the F2 progeny selected on the basis of their motor activity levels (average daily levels of distance moved over a 3 days recording: 768±74 cm/hr (affected) versus 1765±175 cm/hr (non-affected)(p<0.0001).
Project description:C57BL/6J mice (B6) and 129S1 mice (129J) were purchased from Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME) and 129S6 mice (129T) were purchased from Taconic Farms (Germantown, NY). Mice were maintained on normal chow containing 22% calories from fat, 23% from protein and 55% from carbohydrates (Mouse Diet 9F 5020, PharmaServ, Framingham, MA) or a high fat diet (Open Source Diet, D12492, Research Diets, New Brunswick, NJ) containing 60% calories from fat, 20% from protein and 20% from carbohydrates. For antibiotic treatment, 6-week old mice were treated with either placebo, vancomycin (1g/L) or metronidazole (1g/L) (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) in drinking water then started on HFD from age 7 to 11 weeks. The mice were fasted for 2 hours and anesthetized with isoflurane before collecting cecum and plasma.
