Metabolomics Workbench ST000675 - GNPS - Effects of rosiglitazone treatment on lipid composition
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Reprograming of 'white' to 'brite' adipocytes with higher oxidative capacity and improved endocrine function represents a potentially important approach to address the dysfunctional adipocyte phenotypes in obesity. We find that chronic treatment with the PPAR? agonist (rosiglitazone, 1 uM for 7days in vitro) in white human adipose tissue induced metabolic changes. Our trancriptome analysis showed that higher mitochondrial and peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation pathways and other genes involved in lipid metabolism including (re)esterification are induced by rosiglitazone treatment. To understand the biochemical basis of brite vs. white human adipocytes, we will perform comprehensive metabolomic profiling of control and rosiglitazone treated tissues using unbiased lipidomics approach.
