Project description:Fenofibrate is a specific agonist of the nuclear receptor PPARa. To identify the gene expression under the strict dependence of hepatic PPARa activity, we generated a new mouse strain of PPARa-specific deletion in hepatocyte (albumin-Cre+/- Pparaflox/flox or LKO) and we compared them to total Ppara KO (KO), wild-type (WT) and liver WT (albumin-Cre-/- Pparaflox/flox or LWT) mice. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in liver of Ppara LKO, LWT, Ppara KO and WT male mice. There are 36 liver samples, each from an individual mouse. The samples are from Ppara liver KO (LKO), Ppara KO (KO), wild-type (WT) and liver WT (LWT) male mice of 14 week-old from the same genetic background (C57Bl/6J) treated with Fenofibrate (100 mg/kg/day) or vehicle (aqueous solution of gum Arabic 3%) by daily gavage for 10 days. n= 4 mice for LKO, LWT and WT genotypes treated with vehicle; n=3 for KO mice treated with vehicle; n=5 mice for LWT, LKO and KO genotypes treated with fenofibrate; n=4 WT mice treated with fenofibrate. All mice were sacrified at ZT14.

Project description:If the function of the nuclear receptor PPARa is well-known during a prolongated fasting, its hepatic biological function during feeding and refeeding conditions still needs to be investigated. Moreover, in vivo data collected so far on PPARa function during fasting were obtained using the total Ppara KO transgenic mouse model. To identify genes whose expression is under the strict dependence of hepatic PPARa activity, we generated a new mouse strain of PPARa-specific deletion in hepatocyte (albumin-Cre+/- Pparaflox/flox or LKO) and we compared them to total Ppara KO (KO), wild-type (WT) and liver WT (albumin-Cre-/- Pparaflox/flox or LWT) mice under three nutritional challenges. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in liver of Ppara LKO, LWT, Ppara KO and WT male mice fed ad libitum, fasted for 24 hours and refed. There are 52 liver samples, each from an individual mouse. The samples are from Ppara liver KO (LKO), Ppara KO (KO), wild-type (WT) and liver WT (LWT) male mice of 8 week-old from the same genetic background (C57Bl/6J) fed ad libitum, fasted for 24 hours, fasted for 24 hours and then refed 24 hours more with glucose added in water (200g/l). In fed condition (Fed), n= 3 mice for LKO, LWT genotypes, n= 5 for KO and n= 4 fot WT; in fasting condition (Fas), n=5 for LKO, LWT and WT genotypes and n= 3 for KO; in refeeding condition (Ref), n= 5 for LKO, KO and WT genotypes and n= 4 for LWT. All mice were sacrified at ZT14.

Project description:Fenofibrate is a synthetic ligand for the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) alpha, but there are reports that fenofibrate affects endothelial cells in PPARa-independent manner. In order to identify PPARa-dependently and PPARa-independently regulated transcripts we generated microarray data from human endothelial cells treated with fenofibrate with and without siRNA-mediated knock-down of PPARa.

In this study, we generated microarray data from human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) treated with fenofibrate with pretreatment PPARa or control siRNA. There are four time points (4, 8, 12 and 18hours) (n=1 at each time point).

Time 0 indicates the start point of observation immediately prior to exposure to the 25umol fenofibrate. There are five time points (2, 4, 6, 8, and 18hours) (n=3 at each time point). The control is untreatment HUVEC (n=4).
