Hepatic gene expression analysis from rats with chronic sleep restriction. Rattus norvegicus

We report the change in gene expression in rat liver post chronic sleep restriction. Rats were sleep restricted by for 5 days by forced activity protocol. We found changes in genes related to NAD metabolism (Nampt), TCA cycle (Acly) and methionine metabolism (Msrb2 and Mtr) Overall design: Examination of differential expression from liver of rats undergoing forced activity plus sleep restriction and force activity only
