Project name: Macaca fascicularis

Description: To understand the effect of an adverse early life environment within the normal birth range we have utilised a non human primate model Macca fascicularis and employed microarray. We have identified 1973 genes which were differentially expressed in the three tissue types namely umbilical cord, neonatal liver, and skeletal muscle.Overall design: Using microaary, we compard tissues from neonates in the average birth weight (50-75th centile) to those of lower birth weight (5-25th centile).

Data type: Transcriptome or Gene expression

Sample scope: Multiisolate
