Project description:Investigating the transcriptional changes in mouse livers exposed to low and high fat diets for 11 weeks. Determine what gene changes in the Cyp1b1 null livers may be contributing to prevention of increased adiposity when givin a high fat diet. Three Comparison experiment. Comparing wild-type low fat vs Cyp1b1 null low fat, wild-type high fat vs Cyp1b1 null high fat and low fat vs high in wild-type mice. Sample size is 3 per group. Limma analysis data provided in Series supplementary file (Normalized log2 ratio of (Cy3/Cy5) representing test group/control group).
Project description:To study the effects of a high fat diet on the mouse lung transcriptional profile. 6 samples were analyzed. 3 wild type mice on a control diet (lung samples) vs. 3 wild type mice on a high fat diet (lung samples).
Project description:This study sought to interrogate the effects of lipids and lipid metabolites on the hepatic proteome. Protein expression in high-fat diet (HFD) mouse livers vs. livers of normal chow fed (NC) mice were investigated using multiplexed quantitative LC-MS/MS (TMT labeling). This experiment contains additional replicates for normal chow and mice on high-fat diet for 16 weeks.

Project description:Tmem120a was shown to be important for adipocytes differentiation. Here we analyze gene expression in suncutaneous adipose tissue form Tmem120a fat-specific knockout mouse on high fat vs low fat diet.
Project description:Long-term high fat feeding leads to hepatic steatosis, dyslipidemia, and a pro-inflammatory state. In a previous study, we observed this dysregulated metabolic phenotype when C57BL/6 mice were fed a high fat diet (HFD) for sixteen weeks. Additionally, a five-fold increase in liver gene expression of serum amyloid A-1 (SAA-1), an acute phase response protein that associates with high density lipoprotein (HDL), was observed. Inflammation induced changes composition may alter HDL functions, including anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and reverse cholesterol transport properties. Diet-induced onset and progression of HDL dysfunction is poorly understood. To examine the relationship between high fat diet and HDL dysfunction, we performed a short-term diet study. Four-week high fat feeding caused an increase in total plasma cholesterol compared with mice fed normal control diet (ND). No change in plasma triglycerides or development of hepatic steatosis was observed. These mice did however show evidence for increase in acute phase reactants, with a 3.25-fold increase in SAA-1 expression in liver. Heavy water labelling was used to determine the turnover rates of proteins associated with HDL. High fat diet resulted in increased fractional catabolic rate (HFD vs ND) of several acute phase response proteins involved ininnate immunity , including – Complement C3 (7.06 ± 0.99 vs 5.20 ± 0.56 %/h, p < 0.005), complement factor B (6.17 ± 0.59 vs 5.09 ± 0.87 %/h, p < 0.05), complement Factor H (4.16 ± 0.41 vs 3.56 ± 0.36 %/h, p < 0.05), and Complement factor I (3.50 ± 0.26 vs 2.75 ± 0.14 %/h, p < 0.005). Our findings suggest that early immune response-induced inflammatory remodeling of HDL precedes the diet-induced steatosis and dyslipidemia. Early HDL dysfunction reflected on impaired reverse cholesterol transport likely results in increase in plasma cholesterol in the absence of other lipid abnormalities.
