Dataset: Transcription profiling of rat liver after mild restriction of food intake for one week or one month

The aim of this study is to obtain the gene expression profiles of the liver of young growing rats after mild restriction of food intake for one week or one month. Experiment Overall Design: Male Wistar rats, at 5 weeks of age, were fed with reduced diet (5%, 10%, 20% and 30% restriction) for one week or one month (n=5). After 16h fasting, the liver was then extracted and total RNA was isolated using an RNeasy mini kit with DNase treatment (QIAGEN). The RNA samples were pooled from five rats for each group. Then, DNA microarray analysis was performed using duplicate GeneChips (Affymetrix) on each pooled RNA sample.
