Project description:Two-month-old C57BL/6J male mice were placed on chow diet or a diet enriched in high fat, cholesterol, and fructose (Research diet D09100301: 40 kcal% fat, 2% cholesterol, 20 kcal% fructose, HFCF diet) for 1 or 3 months. Liver RNA was isolated and submitted for small RNA sequencing.
Project description:Male and female mice (Bl6/J) were fed a chow diet (control 1 and control 2) or a High fat diet (HFD) or a Choline deficient High fat diet (CD HFD) or a Western Diet (WD) or a Western Diet supplemented with glucose and fructose in drinking water (WD glucose fructose) for 15 weeks.
Project description:Two-month-old C57BL/6J male mice were placed on either chow diet or a diet enriched in high fat, cholesterol, and fructose (Research diet D09100301: 40 kcal% fat, 2% cholesterol, 20 kcal% fructose, HFCF diet) for 1 or 3 months. RNA-seq was used to analyze hepatic gene expression from mice on 1-month chow diet, 1-month HFCF diet, 3-month chow diet, and 3-month HFCF.
Project description:Maternal obesity programs the offspring to cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, and obesity. We sequenced and profiled the cardiac miRNAs that were dysregulated in the hearts of baboon fetuses born to a high fat / high fructose diet fed mothers compared to a regular diet fed mothers.
Project description:Two months-old Shp flox/flox male mice were injected with either AAV8 expressing Cre recombinase driven by the thyroxine-binding globulin (Tbg) promoter (AAV8-Tbg-Cre) or control AAV8 (AAV8-Tbg-null) and fed chow or a diet enriched in high fat, cholesterol, and fructose (Research diet D09100301: 40 kcal% fat, 2% cholesterol, 20 kcal% fructose, hereafter referred to as HFCF diet) for 3 months. Liver RNA was isolated and submitted to RNA-seq.
Project description:Xbp1 is an important regulator of unfolded protein response and lipid metabolism. Its dyregulation has been associcated in human NASH. Feeding a high fat diet with fructose/sucrose to mice causes progressive, fibrosing steatohepatitis. This study is to use RNA-Seq to identify differentially expressed genes in hepatic Xbp1 deficient mice livers fed with a high fat diet compared to controls. Hepatic Xbp1 deficient mice or flox controls were fed either regular chow or a high fat diet (n=4). Samples from each cohort were pooled into two replicates.
Project description:We reported the variation in the gut microbiome diversity under the influence of Intrauterine Growth restriction or Exposure to High Fat High fructose diet followed by Intrauterine growth restriction.

Project description:To decipher the beneficial effects of Polyphenols on health, healthy volunteers were randomized into two groups and were submitted to either a red grape polyphenol rich extract supplemented diet (PP) or a placebo diet (PCB) during 8 weeks. Then they were submitted to a fructose load (3g/kg Fat Free Mass/day) during 7 days. Muscle biopsies were taken before the protocol, 8 weeks after PP or PCB diet and after the 7 days fructose load. We have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes regulated by fructose and to identify the mechanism of action of Polyphenols.

Ten biological replicates were processed for PP diet, nine for PCB diet.
