Project description:Hypoxia in adipose tissue is suggested to be involved in the development of a chronic mild inflammation, which in obesity can further lead to insulin-resistance. The effect of hypoxia on gene expression in adipocytes seems to play a central role in this inflammatory response observed in obesity. However, the global impact of hypoxia on transcriptional changes in human adipocytes is unclear. Therefore, we compared gene expression profiles of human Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome (SGBS) adipocytes under normoxic or hypoxic conditions to detect hypoxia-responsive genes in adipocytes by using whole human genome microarrays. Human SGBS adipocytes were cultured in a hypoxic environment (1% O2) for 3, 6 and 16 hours and the control group was cultured under normoxic conditions (21% O2). Total RNA was prepared from control and treated SGBS cells, in triplicate experiments, and probes were hybridized on ‘Human Genome U133 2.0’ arrays (Affymetrix).

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression.

Project description:Human SGBS preadipocytes were differentiated into adipocytes, and human iPSCs were differentiated into hypothalamic neurons. Cells were collected for ATAC-seq at several differentiation stages. The differentiations were performed in one biological replicate, with two technical replicates (different wells of the differentiation that were also processed individually during library preparation). SGBS Day0: Represents the preadipocyte state. SGBS Day2: Represents immature adipocytes. SGBS Day8: Represents early mature adipocytes. SGBS Day16: Represents mature adipocytes. Hypothalamic Day 12: Represents early hypothalamic neurons. Hypothalamic Day 16: Represents mid hypothalamic neurons. Hypothalamic Day 27: Represents mature hypothalamic neurons.

Cells were collected for RNA-seq at several differentiation stages. The differentiations were performed in one biological replicate, with three technical replicates (different wells of the differentiation that were also processed individually during library preparation). SGBS Day0: Represents the preadipocyte state. SGBS Day2: Represents immature adipocytes. SGBS Day8: Represents early mature adipocytes. SGBS Day16: Represents mature adipocytes.
