Title |
Tick-free mouse, biological rep2 |
Sample type |
RNA |
|
|
Source name |
BALB/cJ mouse ear, 4mm biopsy punch
|
Organism |
Mus musculus |
Characteristics |
strain: BALB/cJ stress: tick-free time: control tissue: Skin
|
Treatment protocol |
Mice were anesthetized and infested with 8 Ixodes scpularis nymphs. Attachment was monitored visually. At the proper times after attachment, mice were euthanized and 4mm biopsy punches from tick attachment sites were collected in RNALater (Ambion).
|
Growth protocol |
Mice were housed at the University of Texas Medical Branch ABSL-2 animal facility, and fed with food and water ad libitum. All experiments were approved by the UTMB IACUC.
|
Extracted molecule |
total RNA |
Extraction protocol |
RNA was extracted using a combination of Trizol and Rneasy microkit protocols.
|
Label |
biotin
|
Label protocol |
Biotinylated cRNA was prepared using the Ambion MessageAmp™ Premier RNA Amplification Kit from 500nanograms total RNA.
|
|
|
Hybridization protocol |
Total fragmented cRNA (10micrograms) was hybridized to the Affymetrix Mouse GeneChip 430A 2.0 array according to the manufacturer’s (Affymetrix, CA) conditions.
|
Scan protocol |
Fluorescence was detected with an Affymetrix-7G Gene Array scanner using the Affymetrix GeneChip Command Console software (AGCC1.1).
|
Description |
Gene expression from tick-free mice
|
Data processing |
Gene expression changes were identified using Partek Genomics Suite (Partek, MO) following the default gene expression workflow.
