Prefrontal cortex transcriptome of Arid1b heterozygote mutation mice age of postnatal day 10

Arid1b is a chromatin remodeler implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders. Arid1b mutant mice with haploinsufficiency (Arid1b HT) displayed persistent excitatory synaptic dysfunction from juvenile to adult stage, decreased synaptic density and transmission. Moreover, they showed autistic-like behaviors in both of early and adult stages, decreased sociability in pup USV calling and adult social interaction, and adult repetitive grooming. To investigate early transcriptomic changes in Arid1b mutant mice, RNAseq analysis of prefrontal cortex from wild-type and Arid1b mutant mice at postnatal day 10 was done. Transcriptomic changes support these electrophysiological and behavioral deficits. Arid1b HT mice at postnatal day 10 showed alterations in genes implicated in synaptic functions and ASD.
