Project description:Smilax glabra Roxb, a traditional Chinese herb, has been widely used for folk medicine. Previous studies have found that it has various pharmacological activities, such as cytotoxic, anti-inflammation, anti-oxidant, hepatoprotective, and cardiovascular system protective activities. However, its roles in adipogenesis are poorly understood. We hypothesized that Smilax glabra Roxb and its main component may play important roles in regulating adipocyte diffrentiation and function. To test this hypothesis, we performed RNA-Seq on 3T3-L1 adipocytes treated with and without pure total flavonoids from Smilax glabra Roxb.
Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Columbia glabra were grown for 4 days in the dark without added sucrose. Samples were subsequently kept for 6h either [1] under aerobic conditions, [2] under anoxia in absence of sucrose or [3] under anoxia in presence of sucrose.
