Title |
The gene expression analysis of the spinal cord and skeletal muscle of SBMA (Spinal Bulbar Muscular Atrophy) model mice with or without pioglitazone (PG) treatment |
Organism |
Mus musculus |
Experiment type |
Expression profiling by array
|
Summary |
To identify the gene expression changes by administering PG to SBMA model mice, we prepared total RNA samples from the spinal cords and skeletal muscles of transgenic mice carrying a full-length human AR with 97 CAGs (AR-97Q) that were treated with or without PG. We used AR-97Q (Line #7-8) male mice because they show progressive muscular atrophy and weakness as well as SBMA-like pathology such as the accumulation of the pathogenic androgen receptor in the nucleus of motor neurons. Using microarray analysis, we identified the genes with significantly altered expression of AR-97Q mice by PG treatment.

Overall design |
For non-treated and PG-treated groups, we examined the male mice at 13 weeks of age. RNA from the total spinal cord and skeletal muscle was isolated from three mice of each group.
