Project name: Mus musculus

Description: Deletion of the RPS6 gene in mouse liver results in the inhibition of 40S ribosome biogenesis and the failure of hepatocytes to enter S-phase following partial hepatectomy. This microarray experiment was designed to assess the effects of RPS6 deletion on the expression of genes involved in liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy.Keywords: time course, liverOverall design: RNA was isolated from mouse livers at different time-points following partial hepatectomy. Conditional deletion of the RPS6 gene was perfomed by injecting polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid in mice harbouring a floxed version of the RPS6 gene and a cre recombinase under the regulation of an interferon responsive promoter (MX-CRE). The mice used a control have also a floxed version of the RPS6 gene but lack the cre recombinaste transgene.
