Here, we first conducted gene expression profiling of the anterior and posterior portions of the palate from wild-type mice. In addition, we also conducted gene expression profiling of the posterior palate in mutant mice with an epithelium-specific conditional inactivation of the Tgfbr2 gene. The latter mice provide a model of submucosal cleft palate, which is a congenital birth defect commonly observed in many syndromic conditions. To investigate the adverse effects of dysfunctional TGF-Beta signaling on tissue-tissue interaction between the palatal epithelium and myofibers during palatogenesis, we analyzed mice with an epithelial cell-specific conditional inactivation of Tgfbr2 (Tgfbr2fl/fl;K14-Cre). We performed microarray analyses of anterior palatal tissue and posterior palatal tissue of E15.5 Tgfbr2fl/fl control mice (n=5, each region), and posterior palatal tissue of Tgfbr2fl/fl;K14-Cre mutant mice, collected at embryonic day 15.5 (n=5). Control samples and mutant samples are from separate litters.http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-46211http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-46211/samples/
