Gene expression profiling of Dermal Papilla (DP) cells isolated from wild type (WT) and DP-specific Smo gain-of-function (Smo*) mutant mice during both telogen (at P20) and anagen (at P28).

Gene expression analysis revealed that the DP transcriptome is altered in the Smo* mutant. At P28 the expression of 2226 genes was significantly altered. The expression of 473 genes was altered in the Smo* mutant during telogen (P20). Overall design: 3 samples of wt at telogen (p20), 3 samples of Smo* mutant at telogen (p20), 3 samples of wt at anagen (p28), 3 samples of Smo* mutant at anagen (p28)
