GSE106711: Epigenetic regulation by BAF (mSWI/SNF) complexes limits neural stem cell proliferation by suppressing Wnt signaling in late cortical neurogenesis

Bulk RNA sequencing

We have analyzed changes in gene expression, histone 3 lysine 4 dimethyl (H3K4me2) and histone 3 lysine 37 trimethyl (H3K27me3) levels in the embryonic cortex at E17.5 resulting from conditional deletion of BAF complex - i.e., double knockout of BAF155 and BAF170, in late cortical progenitors utilizing Cre expression under human GFAP (hGFAP) promoter (dcKO_hGFAP-Cre). Moreover, we also analyzed gene expression in WT E17.5 cortex treated with vehicle and Wnt inhibitor together with that of in dcKO_hGFAP-Cre cortex treated with Wnt inhibitor. Gene expression studies were conducted by RNA-Seq and histone marks were analyzed by ChIP-Seq.
