Project description:Obesity is often associated with a low-grade systemic inflammation state that contributes to the development of insulin resistance and atherosclerotic complications. This is usually coupled with increased macrophage infiltration in the adipose tissue and a defect in adipocyte differentiation that results in accumulation of hypertrophic fat cells characterized by a deregulated pattern of adipokine expression. Here we show that knockdown of histone demethylase lsd1 in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes results in defective adipogenesis and derepression of an inflammatory program in these cells. The dataset consists of four sample groups: [1] 3T3-L1 preadipocytes (passage 19) transfected with a control scrambled siRNA at 24h after transfection (siC.24h), [2] 3T3-L1 preadipocytes (p.19) transfected with a siRNA directed against LSD1 at 24h after transfection (siLsd1.24h), [3] 3T3-L1 preadipocytes (p.21) transfected with a control scrambled siRNA at 48h after transfection (siC.48h), and [4] 3T3-L1 preadipocytes (p.21) transfected with a siRNA directed against LSD1 at 48h after transfection (siLsd1.48h). The 24h sample groups (siC.24h and siLsd1.24h) consist of two biological replicate samples; the 48h sample groups (siC.48h and siLsd1.48h) consist of three biological replicate samples. Each sample was hybridized to a separate array, for a total of ten arrays.
Project description:DNA methylation plays a crucial role in the regulation of gene transcription. In this study, using MeDIP-seq experiment, we report the mapping of DNA methylation in undifferentiated 3T3-L1 cells (preadipocytes). Examination of DNA methylation pattern in undifferentiated 3T3-L1 cells (preadipocytes)
Project description:We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and identified regulated genes upon knockdown of lncRNA slincRAD.
Project description:Adipogenic differentiation and metabolic adaptation are initiated through transcriptional and epigenetic reprogramming. In particular, dynamic changes in histone modifications may play central roles in the rearrangement of gene expression patterns. LSD1 (KDM1) protein, encoded by aof2 gene, is a histone demethylase, which is involved in transcriptional regulation. Since the enzymatic activity of LSD1 is FAD (flavin adenine dinucleotide)-dependent, its effects on gene expression may be influenced by FAD availability. To address the importance of histone demethylation in adipogenic differentiation and function, we performed cDNA microarray in LSD1-deficient 3T3-L1 cells as well as in the cells treated with LSD1 inhibitor tranylcypromine (TC). FAD-synthesizing enyme, riboflavin kinase (RFK) -deficient cells were also subjected to the microarray analysis. 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were transfected with aof2- or rfk- specific siRNA or control siRNA (siGL3) . 24 hours later, cells were subjected to adipogenic induction. 24 hours later, cells were harvested for total RNA extraction. For the TC treatment, TC was added to the adipogenic induction medium.

Project description:We attempted to analyze the effect of PRMT1 knockdown in adipogenesis.3T3-L1 preadipocytes were used to investigate aipogenesis in vitro. Analysis of the transcriptomics from siNC and siPRMT1 3T3-L1 cells at MDI induction for 24 h and 72 h provides new insight into the collective roles of PRMT1 in mitotic clonal expansion and adipocyte differentiation.
Project description:We analyzed RING1B binding regions in 3T3-L1 cell lines transduced with the retroviral vector for V5-tagged Fbxl10 or its dF-box mutant. RING1B ChIP-seq in empty, Fbxl10-1, and dF-box mutant vector transduced 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, in duplicate, and V5-Fbxl10 ChIP-seq in Fbxl10 overexpressing 3T3-L1 cells
Project description:Adipogenic differentiation and metabolic adaptation are initiated through transcriptional and epigenetic reprogramming. In particular, dynamic changes in histone modifications may play central roles in the rearrangement of gene expression patterns. BHC80 protein, encoded by phf21a gene, is a part of LSD1 histone demethylase complex and is essential for the demethylation activity. To address the importance of histone demethylation in adipogenic differentiation and function, we performed cDNA microarray in BHC80-deficient 3T3-L1 cells 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were transfected with either BHC80-specific siRNA or control siRNA (siGL3). 24 hours later, cells were subjected to adipogenic induction. 24 hours later, cells were harvested for total RNA extraction.
