This dataset, GSE72264, contains gene expression profiling data from human skin samples of young and old individuals. It was generated to study the molecular mechanisms involved in the aging process of human skin. The dataset includes RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data from skin biopsies of both young and elderly subjects, providing insights into age-related gene expression changes in the skin. By comparing gene expression between these two groups, researchers can identify key genes and pathways that contribute to skin aging and related diseases.
GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus)
Illumina HiSeq 2500 (Homo sapiens)
RNA-Seq gene expression data
Skin biopsies from young (under 30 years) and elderly (over 60 years) individuals
This dataset is useful for those studying skin aging, gene expression, and the molecular mechanisms of aging-related processes.
