In vivo analysis of spinal cord astrocyte and non-astrocyte gene expression after traumatic spinal cord injury, with or without  intraspinal treatment with hydrogel depot containing FGF+EGF
Comparison of genomic data from astrocytes and non-astrocyte cells from mice with or without FGF+EGF after SCI.  We conducted genome-wide RNA sequencing of (i) immunoprecipitated astrocyte-specific ribosome-associated RNA (ramRNA) and (ii) the non-precipitated (flow-through) RNA deriving from non-astrocyte cells, from spinal cord tissue of mice recieving i) SCI alone, ii) SCI+hydrogel depot containing FGF+EGF,  or iii) SCI+empty hydrogel depot. Overall design: Young adult mGFAP-Cre-RiboTag mice underwent severe crush SCI at thoracic level 10. Hydrogel depots were injected two days post-injury. At 14 days following SCI, the central 3mm of the SCI lesion was extracted, homogenized and (i) astrocyte-specific ribosome-associated RNA (ramRNA) precipitated via a hemagglutinin (HA) tag targeted to astrocytes, and (ii) the non-precipitated (flow-through) RNA deriving from non-astrocyte cells in the same tissue samples.
