The changes of Chromatin Accessibiliy Triggered by Unilateral Nephrectomy [ATAC-seq]
Purpose: Experiments were done in mice undergoing unilateral nephrectomy (UNx) and sham nephrectomy. At specific time points (24 hours and 72 hours) after surgery, the earliest first portion of the kidney proximal tubule (PT-S1)  and the cortical collecting duct (CCD) were manually micro-dissected and utilized for transcriptomic analysis by single-tubule small sample RNA-Seq and single-tubule ATAC seq. Methods: We carried out ATAC-sequencing in microdissected ealiest portion of proximal tubules (PT-S1) from mice with or without (sham) unilateral nephrectomy (UNx). Each group (Sham or UNx) has 3 biological replicates. Results and conclusion: ATAC-seq peaks in microdissected PT-S1 revealed a predominance of binding site motifs corresponding to PPARa. Overall design: The transposed DNA fragments from microdissected proximal tubules were generated and sequenced using Illumina Novaseq 6000.
