Transcriptome profiling of normal and CYP2E1 knockdown human neural progenitor cells

The objective of the study was to examine changes in gene expression induced by CYP2E1 knockdown in neural progenitor cells.There were 6samples in total.Samples shs_1, shs_2, and shs_3 are the control group, and shCYP2E1_1, shCYP2E1_2, and shCYP2E1_3 are the CYP2E1 knockdown group.Neural progenitor cells were cultured in vitro from normal fetal brain tissue aborted at 21 weeks, infected with CYP2E1_shRNAs and CYP2E1_shRNA lentivirus respectively, and then differentiated and cultured for 4 days.The total RNA of each sample was extracted from the lentivirus infected, early differentiated human neural progenitor cells with TRIzol reagent.Then the RNA samples were processed for high throughput transcriptome sequencing on Illumina HiSeq 3000 platform.
