Mouse wound healing [RNA-seq]

Purpose: To explore the changes of genes expression in different time points during mouse wound healing. Two wounds tissue from one animal were pooled, three animals were used per time point. The wounds tissue was collected on day 0, 1, 3, 5, 7 after cutting. Skin was cleaned of muscle and fat tissue; total RNA was extracted using the RNeasy mini kits (Qiagen), purified using Direct-zol RNA MiniPrep kit (Zymo Research). Next-generation libraries were prepared using the VAHTS TM mRNA-seq V2 Library Prep Kit for Illumina (Vazyme, #NR601). RNA-seq libraries were run on an Illumina HiSeq X-Ten next-generation sequencer. Analysis of RNA-seq data was done using the DESeq package in R. mRNA profiles of genes expression in different time points of mice skin wounds were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq X-Ten next-generation sequencer.
