Identification of novel neuroprotective loci modulating ischemic stroke volume in a cross between wild-derived inbred mouse strains
We employed RNA-sequencing to identify differentially expressed genes between two wild-derived inbred mouse strains. These strains exhibit high collateral blood vessel densities, but differ in widely in infarct volume following middle artery occlusion. This experiment helped facilitate identification of candidate loci underlying this differential response. Overall design: Examination of differentially expressed genes between strains which exhibit differential infarct volumes after middle artery occlusion
