Sexually dimorphic characteristics of the small intestinal transcriptome of Fabp-gene ablated mice

Analysis of whole small intestine tissue of 10-week old C57BL/6J mice, C57BL/6J mice with the disruption of either Fabp2 gene or Fabp6 gene, and C57BL/6J mice with the simultaneous disruption of Fabp2 and Fabp6 genes. Fabp2 and Fabp6 are two types of fatty acid binding proteins expressed primarily in the small intestine. Small intestine were isolated from ten-week old WT and Fabp-disrupted male and female mice fed a standard lab diet and subjected to gene expression profiling using microarray
