Sample GSM8033645 Query DataSets for GSM8033645
Status Public on May 31, 2024
Title 8-AG treated Fisher344 rat retina-03
Sample type SRA
 
Source name neural retina
Organism Rattus norvegicus
Characteristics tissue: neural retina
genotype: WT
treatment: 8-AG treated old-24 months
Treatment protocol We used four months adult rats as young control and aged rats at 22-24 months of age with or without 8-AG treatment. The 22 months old rats were treated with 8-AG (5 mg/kg body weight per day) daily by supplementing 8-AG in drinking water or water only for the untreated old group. Animals were treated for 8 weeks until they were 24 months of age and they were euthanized and eyes were enucleated immediately.
Growth protocol We obtained young and aged Fischer 344 rats from Char les River Laboratories and the National Institute on Aging [NIA]. All animals were housed under standard 12-h light/12-h dark conditions in the animal facility at University of Pittsburgh.
Extracted molecule total RNA
Extraction protocol Each eye ball was opened by removing the cornea, iris and lens, and the neural retina was firstly isolated and put into RNAzol immediately and flash frozen in liquid nitrogen. After the neural retina being taken, RPE/choroids were isolated by washing the remaining eye cup with RNA zol and flash frozed in liquid nitrogen. Total RNA was isolated follwing manufacturer's instructions of RNAzol (Sigma-Aldrich, Saint-Louis, MO). Only samples with RNA integrity number (RIN) > 7 was selected for poly-A captured mRNA library preparation.
To compare old vs. young and 8-AG treated aged vs untreated aged neural retinae, mRNA libraries were prepared using poly-A capturation (N=3). For RNA from RPE/choroids, due to low RNA yield, mRNA lirbaries were genereated using polyA selection with enrichment for full-length transcripts.
 
Library strategy RNA-Seq
Library source transcriptomic
Library selection cDNA
Instrument model HiSeq X Ten
 
Description SE6781_SA78662_S19_L002
Data processing The reads were first mapped to the latest UCSC transcript set using Bowtie2 version 2.1.0
gene expression level was estimated using RSEM v1.2.15
Differentially expressed genes were identified using the edgeR program. Genes showing altered expression with p<0.05 and more than 1.5 fold changes were considered differentially expressed.
Goseq was used to perform GO enrichment analysis and Kobas was used to perform the pathway analysis.
Assembly: Rnor_6.0
