Gene in Ethanol Study Datasets
Gene Information
Original ID1:Casp3
Fold Change:-1.21
Tissue:Amygdala
Dataset Information
Name:17517326
Method:Microarray
Tissue:Nucleus accumbens, amygdala, frontal cortex, caudate-putamen, and hippocampus
Phenotype:Alcohol-preferring, alcohol-nonpreferring
Publication:Kimpel et al. Alcohol. (2007) Functional gene expression differences between inbred alcohol-preferring and -non-preferring rats in five brain regions. PubMed
Summary:The objective of this study was to determine if there are innate differences in gene expression in selected CNS regions between inbred alcohol-preferring (iP) and -non-preferring (iNP) rats. Gene expression was determined in the nucleus accumbens (ACB), amygdala (AMYG), frontal cortex (FC), caudate-putamen (CPU), and hippocampus (HIPP) of alcohol-naive adult male iP and iNP rats, using Affymetrix Rat Genome U34A microarrays (n = 6/strain). Using Linear Modeling for Microarray Analysis with a false discovery rate threshold of 0.1, there were 16 genes with differential expression in the ACB, 54 in the AMYG, 8 in the FC, 24 in the CPU, and 21 in the HIPP. All the fold change are iP vs. iNP fold change.
