Three biological replicates were collected per tissue per stage (one d145 SCG sample was excluded for poor RNA quality and low sympathetic-marker expression in the analysis). The study aimed to identify CB-specific, developmentally regulated gene expression changes correlating with the peri-natal maturation of oxygen chemosensitivity.</description><repository>biostudies-arrayexpress</repository><sample_protocol>Library Construction - The integrity of RNA was assessed by Agilent Bioanalyzer. Strand-specific RNA-seq libraries were prepared using the KAPA RNA HyperPrep Kit with RiboErase (Roche), which depletes ribosomal RNA prior to library construction. Libraries were quality-checked and quantified before pooling.</sample_protocol><sample_protocol>Sequencing - Pooled, indexed libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq platform in paired-end mode. Base calling and demultiplexing were performed using Illumina's standard pipeline.</sample_protocol><sample_protocol>Sample Collection - Tissues were dissected as described in (https://www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2025.08.21.671502v1) and snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen. The frozen samples were lysed in RNA lysis buffer (Qiagen) and refined to a fine suspension using a hand-held motorised homogeniser with a 5 mm probe (Pro-Scientific).</sample_protocol><sample_protocol>Nucleic Acid Extraction - RNA extraction was performed using the RNA Clean &amp; Concentrator-5 kit (Zymo).</sample_protocol><figure_sub>Organization</figure_sub><figure_sub>MINSEQE Score</figure_sub><figure_sub>Assays and Data</figure_sub><figure_sub>MAGE-TAB Files</figure_sub><pubmed_authors>Yoichiro Sugimoto</pubmed_authors></additional><is_claimable>false</is_claimable><name>mRNA profiling of the sheep carotid body and superior cervical ganglion across development</name><description>Bulk RNA sequencing of carotid body (CB) and superior cervical ganglion (SCG) tissues from sheep at four developmental stages: fetal day 120, fetal day 145 (term), post-natal day 15, and adult.
