Project description:Functional genomic analysis of liver tissue extracted from polygenic obese mice fed either a control (1% linoleic acid) or treatment (1% trans 10, cis 12 conjugated linoleic acid) diet after fourteen days.
Project description:Functional genomic analysis of epididymal adipose tissue extracted from polygenic obese mice fed either a control (1% linoleic acid) or treatment (1% trans 10, cis 12 conjugated linoleic acid) diet after five or fourteen days.
Project description:The trans-10, cis-12-isomer of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) causes a rapid reduction of body and adipose mass in mice by decreasing adipocyte size and number. In addition to changes in adipose tissue, numerous studies have reported alterations in hepatic lipid metabolism. Livers of CLA fed mice gain mass due to lipid accumulation; however, the precise molecular mechanisms are unknown. To elucidate these mechanisms, we examined fatty acid composition and gene expression profiles of livers from a polygenic obese line of mice fed 1% trans-10, cis-12 CLA. Following examination of the fatty acid profile it was concluded that stearoyl CoA desaturase (SCD) activity was unaffected by CLA. Analysis of gene expression data led to the identification of 1393 genes differentially expressed in the liver of CLA fed mice at a nominal P-value of 0.01 and 775 were considered significant using a false discovery rate threshold of 0.05. Following Bonferroni correction and excluding lowly expressed transcripts, 198 genes were identified as being differentially expressed with 17 genes having ⥠2-fold change. Pathway analysis of the 775 genes considered significant using FDR found that 38 of these genes are controlled by Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 4α, a transcription factor thought to be important in controlling liver metabolic status. The list of significant differentially expressed genes found in the liver of mice fed CLA vs. LA is linked below as a supplementary file. Experiment Overall Design: Functional genomic analysis of liver tissue extracted from polygenic obese male mice fed either a control (1% linoleic acid) or treatment (1% trans 10, cis 12 conjugated linoleic acid) diet after fourteen days. Four or five mice were pooled for each labeling. There is 1 replicate for each experiment, for a total of 4 microarrays.

Project description:apoE-deficient mice were fed a Western-type diet enriched with linoleic acid (control), cis-9, trans-11-CLA or trans-10, cis-12-CLA (1.0 % wt/wt) for 12 weeks and their hepatic gene expression was analysed using DNA microarrays Keywords: influence of diet
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series:; GSE8679: Gene expression in mouse white adipose tissue; GSE8681: Gene expression in mouse 3T3-L1 adipocyte tissue culture treated with CLA; GSE8682: Gene expression in mouse 3T3-L1 adipocyte tissue culture treated with tunicamycin; GSE8683: Gene expression in 3T3-L1 mouse tissue (preadipocytes) treated with Trans-10,Cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid(t10c12 CLA); GSE8684: Gene expression in mouse 3T3-L1 adipocyte tissue culture treated with cis-9,trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid(c9t11 CLA) Experiment Overall Design: Refer to individual Series
Project description:Trans-10, Cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid (t10c12 CLA) causes fat loss in mouse 3T3-L1 adipocyte tissue culture; however cis-9, trans-11 CLA does not (this series). The early transcriptome changes were analyzed using high-density microarrays to better characterize the signaling pathways responding to c9t11 CLA. Their gene expression responses between 8 to 12 hr after treatment showed no gene expression changes indicative of an integrated stress response (ISR). Keywords: control/treatment time course
Project description:The white adipose tissue (WAT) rapidly loses mass when mice are fed a diet containing trans-10, cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid (t10c12 CLA). A microarray analysis of WAT due to CLA feeding was performed to better define the processes and genes involved.
