METABOLIC RESPONSES OF PLASMA TO EXTREME ENVIRONMENTS IN OVERWINTERING TIBETAN FROGS NANORANA PARKERI: A METABOLOME INTEGRATED ANALYSIS

Metabolic responses of plasma to extreme environments in overwintering Tibetan frogs Nanorana parkeri: a metabolome integrated analysis

Abstract Many animals lower their metabolic rate in response to low temperatures and scarcity of food in the winter in phenomena called hibernation or overwintering.Living at high altitude on the Tibetan Plateau where winters are very cold, the frog Nanorana parkeri, survives click here in one of the most hostile environments on Earth but, to date,

RT-PCR Heteroduplex Analysis Permits Differentiation of Transgene and Host Gene Expression in a Transgenic Animal Model

In transgenic animal models, the conservation of DNA sequences between the transgene and the host wild-type gene can complicate the evaluation of the expression of each gene.The potential for gene silencing may complicate matters further.Here we report the use of RT-PCR heteroduplex analysis to differentiate the expression of a transgene and its ho
