Lung Epithelial Response to Cigarette Smoke and Modulation by the Nicotinic Alpha 7 Receptor
We report the impact of side-stream cigarette smoking on baseline tracriptional status of enriched epithelium from the distal lung of both male and female control mice or mice harboring a mutation in the nicotinc alpha7 recptor that selectivley diminshes the calcium current (E260A). Overall design: Mice (male or female) of each nicotinic recptor alpha7 genotype (Control (c) or mutant (E260A)) were exposed to side-stream cigarette smoke 5 days per week for four months.  The distal lung epithelium was enriched and poly-adenylated strand-specific RNA-Seq libraries using Illumina TruSeq stranded mRNA were preared for analysis.
