Project description:Tamoxifen-inducible conditional knockout (CKO) mice were generated to explore the function of Gcn1 in adult mice using the Cre/loxP system. To analyze the function of GCN1 in the inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT), we compared the whole cell proteome of eWAT harvested from GCN1 CKO mice with that of wild-type mice.
Project description:We used microarrays to detail the gene expression profile during WAT -beige transition by treatment of beta adrenergic receptor agonist . Stromal vascular fractions (SVF) from mice (n = 3/group) that received vehicle or beta3 adrenergic receptor agonist, CL, treatment were served for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We are trying to find out angiogenic factors genes dynamics during white adipose tissues (WAT) - beige transition.
Project description:Transcript profiling to identify genes where the mRNA expression levels are differentially regulated in white adipose tissue of transgenic mice overexpressing the FOXC2 gene compared with adipose tissue of wild-type mice.
Project description:The goal of this study was to define the gene expression changes that take place in the white adipose tissue of KSR2-/- mice at 6 months of age. Three wild type mice and three KSR2-/- mice were used for total RNA extraction from white adipose tissue. The RNA from each mouse was analyzed on one Affymetrix gene chip and the differences were compared using Gene Set Enrichment Analysis.
Project description:Histones were isolated from brown adipose tissue and liver from mice housed at 28, 22, or 8 C. Quantitative top- or middle-down approaches were used to quantitate histone H4 and H3.2 proteoforms. See published article for complimentary RNA-seq and RRBS datasets.
