Expression data from Stx2-treated human renal proximal tubular epithelial cell (RPTEC). Expression data from Stx2-treated human renal proximal tubular epithelial cell (RPTEC)

Shiga toxin type 2 (Stx2) from Escherichia coli is thought to be a main factor to casue renal dysfunction in Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) infection. The renal dysfunction caused by the proximal tubular defects can be detected in the earlier EHEC infection. However, the precise information of gene expression from proximal tubular epithelial cells has yet to be clarified. We performed microarray experiments using Stx2-injected mouse kidney and Stx2-treated human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (RPTEC), and extracted common genes that were differentially expressed. Overall design: Stx2-treated RPTEC from various time points were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Agilent microarrays. time course ------------------------------------------------------- Authors state Raw data files are not attached because they have been lost.
