description | Gene expression in forebrain structures change during day and night depending on circadian and rest-activity cycles. Clock genes have been shown to be involved in the control of circadian and sleep-wake control. In this study, we aimed at studying the consequences of loss of SHARP1 (DEC2/BHLHE40) and SHARP2 (DEC1/BHLHE41) on cortical gene expression at rest (ZT4) and activity (ZT16) phases. We harvested cortex tissue from individual mice from WT and SHARP1/2 double null mutant mice at ZT4 and ZT16, prepared total RNA and subjected the corresponding samples (n=2 biological replicates per timepoint and genotype) to Affymetrix genechip analysis to assay the changes of gene expression. |
