mRNA Levels in Gastrocnemius of Control and C26 Tumor-Bearing Mice

248.4 KB of raw mRNA level data from the gastrocnemius muscle of male and female mice, comparing control subjects with those bearing C26 tumors. The dataset was authored by Stavroula Tsitkanou and last updated on May 27, 2026. It is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license on the figshare platform.

Use Cases

• Compare gene expression profiles between healthy and tumor-bearing mice based on the described experimental groups.
• Investigate sex-specific differences in muscle mRNA levels in response to a C26 tumor burden.
• Analyze potential biomarkers for cancer-induced muscle wasting (cachexia) in the gastrocnemius tissue.

Strengths

• Data is provided in a raw, unprocessed XLSX format of 248.4 KB, suitable for custom analysis pipelines.
• Experimental design includes both control and C26 tumor-bearing groups, as well as both male and female subjects, allowing for comparative analysis.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale statistical modeling.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
