Project description:To investigate gene expression changes induced by Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 3 (LPA3) activation in peri-implantation uteri, we performed microarray analysis in LPA3 agonist (T13)-injected pseudopregnant uteri. On 3.5 dpc, pseudopregnant mice were subjected with intrautero-injection of vehicle (0.01% BSA-PBS) or T13 and then uteri were dissected 24-36 hr after the injection. We found that several thousand genes were up- or down-regulated by T13 injection. Interestingly, well-known decidual markers such as Bmp2 and Wnt4 were dramatically induced by T13, which we certificated in quantitive RT-PCR.
Project description:We used microarrays to detail the gene expression profile during WAT -beige transition by treatment of beta adrenergic receptor agonist .
