Project name: Mus musculus

Description: The expression of K-ras transgene is induced in K-rasV12+/-/Cre+/+/ROSA26R-LacZ+/+ transgenic mice uteri, which were primed with hormone treatment. Decidualization was artificially induced in these uteri and hormone injection was withdrawn to induced menstruation-like endometrial degeneration. Microarray was then used to study the molecular changes in these menstruating uteri following the K-ras activation.Overall design: Uterine tissues were collected from K-ras induced and littermate controled menstruating uteri. Experiments were carried out using Illumina Mouse WG-6 BeadChips (n=6 in each group). Data were normalized in R environment using the Lumi Bioconductor package.
