RNA-Seq data on prefrontal cortex in valproic acid model of autism and control rats

The transcriptome sequencing data of valproic acid (VPA) model of autism and control rats are presented. VPA model of autism was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of 600 mg/kg sodium valproic acid to female rats at day 12.5 post-conception, and the control rats were injected with saline....

Description
Summary:The transcriptome sequencing data of valproic acid (VPA) model of autism and control rats are presented. VPA model of autism was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of 600 mg/kg sodium valproic acid to female rats at day 12.5 post-conception, and the control rats were injected with saline. Male offspring of VPA- or saline-injected dams from different litters were sacrificed on PND 35 (n = three rats/three litters/group). Prefrontal cortex was dissected from both hemispheres, and RNA was isolated. Libraries were prepared and RNA Sequencing (RNA-Seq) was performed following Illumina's recommendations. Samples are described in the SRA portal (SRP115258) and FASTQ files have been deposited in Sequence Read Archive (accession numbers: SRR5950172 to SRR5950177). The interpretation of these data is presented in the following research article: “Transcriptional and splicing dysregulation in prefrontal cortex of valproic acid induced rat models of autism” (Zhang et al., 2018) [1].
