Gene expression profiling of mouse prostate stromal cells with beta-catenin S37A mutation

To identify such inhibitory signaling mediated by the stromal cells with active Wnt activity, we performed an RNA-seq analysis comparing the gene expression profiles of primarily cultured adult mouse prostate stromal cells that express S37A ß-Catenin and the control cells that only express GFP. We identified 783 genes that were differentially expressed by at least 1.2 fold (Fig. 4A). Genes associated with the Wnt receptor signaling pathway were enriched in the S37A ß-catenin group, corroborating the higher Wnt activity in this group. Overall design: Two group comparison
