Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals naked mole rat liver adaptations to hypoxia. Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals naked mole rat liver adaptations to hypoxia

This study compares the transcriptional response to hypoxia in liver of the hypoxia-tolerant naked mole rat (NMR) and the hypoxia-sensitive rat. Overall design: Liver mRNA profiles (Illumina HiSeq 2000) of naked mole rat (NMR) and rat exposed to short-term hypoxia (8% O2, 8 hours). Compared to normoxia samples.
