Dataset: Transcription profiling of mouse cerebral malaria susceptible and resistant animals

Cerebral malaria (CM) is a leading cause of death in the world. Better understanding of the pathogenesis of this disease is critical for the development of novel therapies. In this work, we investigated temporal gene expression profiles in the brains of CM-susceptible and CM-resistant mice during infection with P. Berghia ANKA (PbA). In this model of CM, susceptible mice develop neurological signs by day 6 post infection while resistant mice do not develop neurological manifestations during malarial infection. Experiment Overall Design: C57/B6 (CM-susceptible) and Balb/C (CM-resistant) mice were infected with PbA. Gene expression profiles from whole brains were obtained at day 0 (uninfected), day 1, day 3, and day 6.
