Photoperiod-Induced Follicle Development in Striped Hamsters with cAMP Pathway Analysis

Experimental data from a study on photoperiod regulation of follicle development in striped hamsters (Cricetulus barabensis). The dataset, authored by Huiliang Xue and last updated in April 2026, includes results from transcriptome sequencing, ELISA assays for FSH, LH, and cAMP, and qPCR gene expression analysis. It is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Analyze correlations between photoperiod exposure and follicle development stages based on histological staining results.
• Investigate the role of the cAMP signaling pathway in photoperiodic response based on transcriptome sequencing data.
• Model relationships between serum hormone levels (FSH, LH, cAMP) and gene expression (GPR3, ADCY5, PDE1A, PDE3A) based on ELISA and qPCR measurements.
• Identify potential molecular targets for rodent population control based on the identified core factors in the cAMP pathway.

Strengths

• Data is derived from controlled experiments with three distinct photoperiod conditions (LP, MP, SP).
• Includes multiple data modalities: transcriptomics, hormone assays, and gene expression quantification.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Dataset is very small at 9.0 KB, indicating limited scope.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
