Glucocorticoid action in the hippocampus revealed by integrated genome-wide ChIP and RNA analysis [ChIP-seq]
Glucocorticoid hormones (GCs) play a critical role in physiological regulation and behavioural adaptation through mineralocorticoid (MR)- and glucocorticoid receptor (GR)-mediated actions in the hippocampus. We conducted genome-wide MR and GR ChIP-Seq studies on rat hippocampus to elucidate MR- and GR-regulated genes under physiological conditions like acute stress and circadian variation. Rat hippocampus tissue was collected under early morning baseline conditions, at 30 min after the start of a 15-min forced swim session (acute stress), or under late afternoon baseline conditions. We identified many genomic loci in which MR and/or GR binds following acute stress or due the circadian rise in GC secretion. Overall design: Examination of the binding of two transcription factors to the rat hippocampus genome under early morning baseline conditions, following an acute stressor or under late afternoon baseline conditions Please note that each peak file was generated with the corresponding ChIP and input samples, and is linked to the corresponding ChIP-seq sample records.
