Various substances have been reported to enhance the cardiac differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Ascorbic Acid had a cardiogenic effect in mESC CGR8 cell line. Transcriptome of AA-treated CGR8 ESCs did not reveal any significant changes in gene expression as compared to untreated cells.

Influence of hyperthyroid conditions on gene expression in extraocular muscles of rats.

View SamplesExtraocular muscles (EOMs) are a highly specialized type of tissue with a wide range of unique properties, including characteristic innervation, development, and structural proteins. Even though EOMs are frequently and prominently involved in thyroid-associated diseases, little is known about the immediate effects of thyroid hormone on these muscles. In order to create a comprehensive profile of changes in gene expression levels in EOMs induced by thyroid hormone, hyperthyroid conditions were simulated by treating adult Sprague-Dawley rats with intraperitoneal injections of 25 g T3 per 100 g body weight over the course of six weeks; subsequently, microarray analysis was used to determine changes in mRNA levels in EOMs from T3-treated animals relative to untreated controls.

View SamplesOne-day old white Leghorn chicks were housed in brooders with a 12 hr light:dark cycle, using General Electric chroma 50 fluorescent lighting with irradiance of approximately 50W/cm2 at chick eye level. They received Purina Chick Chow food and water ad libitum. At one week of age and at the onset of the light phase, the chicks were anesthetized with inhalation ether, and a unilateral translucent white plastic goggle was glued to the periorbital feathers to induce ipsilateral form-deprivation myopia, alternating between the left or right eye.
Form-deprivation myopia in chick induces limited changes in retinal gene expression.

View SamplesUsing Affymetrix GeneChips, we analyzed expression profiles of SP cells from EOM and TA. 348 differentially expressed transcripts defined the EOM-SP transcriptome: 229 upregulated in EOM-SP and 119 in TA-SP.
