Selected data and study scope

This dataset contains bulk RNA-seq data from Rattus norvegicus, sampled from whole hypothalamus. The default comparison examines gene expression in Endurance training (8 weeks) relative to Sedentary (8 weeks).

The explorer includes 1 track and 1 comparison for this dataset.

The default track, Whole hypothalamus, includes 5 Sedentary (8 weeks) samples and 5 Endurance training (8 weeks) samples in this comparison. These are analysis sample counts. Check the source for biological replication and pooling.

Interpretation and limitations

The measurement combines expression from the cells in the tissue sample. A difference in tissue expression alone does not identify which cell type contributes to it.

Expression values use log2(CPM + 1). Keep this unit when exporting or comparing values. Values on other normalization scales are not directly interchangeable.

Evidence and verification

Pipeline QC passed. Rat hypothalamus — endurance training (bulk RNA-seq); all 1 registered contrasts on default track hypothalamus

Experimental design passed. Rat hypothalamus — endurance training (bulk RNA-seq); all 1 registered contrasts on default track hypothalamus

Author concordance not assessed. Author effect concordance has not been assessed

Pipeline QC can pass while experimental-design limitations remain. Read both assessments before interpreting results.

Open the dataset in the Explorer to read each check and its evidence. Author concordance compares effects for matched genes. It does not require identical author P values or FDR.

Source study

Whole hypothalamus from 6-month-old male F344 rats, sedentary treadmill control vs eight weeks of endurance training, n=5/5 independent animals. Other timepoints, sexes, tissues, and acute-exercise arms are excluded (MoTrPAC; GSE242354)

Source publication

Molecular adaptations in response to exercise training are associated with tissue-specific transcriptomic and epigenomic signatures.
