Project description:Label-free LC-MS/MS was used to characterise and quantify the secretory profiles of murine perivascular adipose tissue, canonical white adipose tissue, and brown adipose tissue.
Project description:The aim of this study was to identify genes expressed selectively in brown adipose tissue as compared to white adipose tissue from the same animals. This analysis provides a gene set that is brown and white adipose selective. Experiment Overall Design: Interscapular brown adipose tissue and epididymal white adipose tissue was carefully dissected from 3 male C57Bl/6 mice. These samples were profiled independently using Affymetrix mouse 430_2 gene arrays, representing 3 biological replicates for each brown and white adipose tissues.
Project description:Two types of adipose tissues, white and brown, are found in mammals. Increasingly novel strategies are being proposed for the treatment of obesity and its associated complications by altering amount and/or activity of BAT using mouse models. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in subcutaneous white adipose tissue and brown adipose tissue.
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.

Increasingly novel strategies are being proposed for the treatment of obesity and its associated complications by altering amount and/or activity of BAT using mouse models. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in subcutaneous white adipose tissue and brown adipose tissue. White adipose tissue (Subcutaneous region) and brown adipose tissue (intrascapular) were isolated from LACA mice (male, 25 ± 3g ) for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
