Learn MorePulmonary Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), a rare lung disease that affects predominantly women, is characterized by proliferation of smooth muscle-like cells in the lungs, destruction of lung tissue, upregulation of VEGF-D, and growth of lymphatic vessels inducing a loss of pulmonary function. TSC2 gene mutations that render TSC2 inactive are a common finding associated with LAM. To better understand the function of the TSC2 gene, we sought to characterize differences in the transcriptome of cells where TSC2 is inactivated.; RNA-Seq was used to measure transcript expression differences between TSC2-null mouse embryonic fibroblasts and TSC2-expressed mouse embryonic fibroblasts. The Illumina TruSeq method was used to prepare stranded poly(A)-selected RNA-Seq libraries, and 100bp paired-end reads were generated with an Illumina Hi-Seq 2500 instrument in high output mode. RNA-Seq data was analyzed using kallisto (http://pachterlab.github.io/kallisto/) and R. SOURCE: Blanca,E,Himes (bhimes@pennmedicine.upenn.edu) - 402 Blockley Hall University of Pennsylvania
