mRNA expression analysis
Strain specific analysis of GDF15 gene expression in wild-type mice and B-hGDF15 mice by RT-PCR. Mouse Gdf15 mRNA was detectable in kidney of wild-type (+/+). Human GDF15 mRNA was detectable only in H/H but not in +/+ mice.
Strain-specific GDF15 expression analysis in wild-type C57BL/6 mice and homozygous B-hGDF15 mice by ELISA. Serum was collected from wild-type C57BL/6 mice (+/+) and homozygous B-hGDF15 mice (H/H), and analyzed by ELISA with species-specific GDF15 ELISA kit (R&D, Mouse/Rat GDF-15 Quantikine ELISA Kit: MGD150, Human GDF-15 Quantikine ELISA Kit: DGD150). Mouse GDF15 was exclusively detectable in wild-type mice and human GDF15 was exclusively detectable in homozygous B-hGDF15 mice. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM.
