Project description:Gene expression analysis after the treatments for functional recovery after contusion injury which are mediated by glutathione Experiment Overall Design: 24 hours after contusion and treatments Experiment Overall Design: Groups include normal, laminectomy, contusion and treatments on contused rats (clenbuterol, X-ray, tempol, BSO and tempol/BSO)
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.
Project description:Analysis of LBNF1 rat testes from controls, containing both somatic and all germ cell types and from irradiated rats in which all cells germ cells except type A spermatgogonia are eliminated. Results provide insight into distinguishing germ and somatic cell genes and identification of somatic cell genes that are upregulated after irradiation.
