Title |
Transcriptome profiles of female and male mouse liver |
Organism |
Mus musculus |
Experiment type |
Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
|
Summary |
Sexual dimorphism of gene expression is commonly observed in mammalian tissues, including liver. To assess sexual dimorphisms in gene expression, we profiled the transcriptome of liver tissue from 20-week old male and female mice of the C57BL/6N (B6) and C3H/HeN (C3) inbred mouse strains using RNA-seq. These two inbred mouse strains exhibit phenotypic differences in liver biology, as they are at opposite ends of the spectrum of spontaneous hepatocellular carcinoma incidence; C3 mice are highly susceptible to develop spontaneous liver tumors as a function of age, while B6 mice are extremely resistant. Overall, these datasets provide insight into the underlying gene expression patterns that should be considered when assessing sex differences in mouse liver.
