Popis: | We report here a modified mRNA differential display method and its application for the analysis of differential gene expression in NGF-treated PC12 cells and in embryonic rat spinal cord. The optimized protocol is based on low fidelity priming of multiple cDNAs followed by high fidelity amplification. In PC12 cells induction by nerve growth factor (NGF) altered the expression of 4% of the 466 transcripts evaluated. During neurogenesis of the spinal cord we found that 30% of the 288 examined products changed. The differential expression of the characterized genes was confirmed by independent quantitative PCR. We conclude this method is suitable for the identification of increases and decreases of mRNA levels and allows the discovery of differentially expressed unknown transcripts. |
