Project name: Mus musculus
Description: BALB/c mice develop peripheral arthritis (PGIA) and spondyloarthropathy (PGIS) upon repeated intraperitoneal injections of human cartilage proteoglycan (PG) aggrecan. The aim of the present study was to identify spondylitis-specific genes by comparing intervertebral disc (IVD) RNA samples from spondyloarthropathic and naïve BALB/c mice.Keywords: Genetic modificationOverall design: We compared the gene expression data of 5 spondyloarthropathic and 3 naïve (control) mice.
