IBAT total RNA profiles of wild type C57BL/6N mice exposed to cold and high fat diet
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Cold and nutrient activated brown adipose tissue (BAT) is capable of increasing systemic energy expenditure via uncoupled respiration and secretion of endocrine factors thereby protecting mice against diet-induced obesity and improving insulin response and glucose tolerance in men. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have recently been identified as fine tuning regulators of cellular function. While certain lncRNAs have been functionally characterised in adipose tissue, their overall contribution in the activation of BAT remains elusive. We identified lncRNAs correlating to inter- scapular brown adipose tissue (iBAT) function in high fat diet (HFD) and cold stressed mice. We focused on Gm15551 which has an adipose tissue specific expression profile, is highly upregulated during adipogenesis and downregulated by β-adrenergic activation in mature adipocytes. Albeit we performed comprehensive transcriptional and adipocyte physiology profiling in vitro and in vivo, we could not detect an effect of gain or loss of function of Gm15551.
