Project description:To identify the genes that are regulated by IRF7, we have performed DNA microarray in 3T3-L1 adipocytes differentiated from precursor cells infected with retrovirus empty or carrying IRF7. Plasmids (Empty- and IRF7-pMSCV) were kindly provided from Dr. Eguchi at the Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Okayama, Japan [Cell Metab. 2008;7: 86-94.]. Infected 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were selected by puromycin treatment and differentiated into adipocytes. 7 days after the induction of adipogenesis, total RNA was isolated.
Project description:Analysis of 3T3-L1 adipocytes treeated with dexamethasone (Dex) for 6 hours. Dex is a synthetic glucorticoid (GC) receptor agonist. Results provide insight into the effect of glucocorticoids on adipocytes.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of pre-adipocytes 3T3-L1 reveals anti-adipogenic potential to metabolic associated diseases through whole transcriptomic analysis. We evaluated the effects of Tsuruazuki extract on pre-adipocytes 3T3-L1. We performed an untargeted whole-genome transcriptome analysis to explore functionality of Tsuru on 3T3-L1 cells.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of mouse 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The objective of this study is to explore gene expression profiles of 3T3-L1 adipocytes in response to GDE5 siRNA transfection.
Project description:Analysis of 3T3-L1 adipocytes treeated with dexamethasone (Dex) for 6 hours. Dex is a synthetic glucorticoid (GC) receptor agonist. Results provide insight into the effect of glucocorticoids on adipocytes. Differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 5% stripped FBS for 24 hours and then treated with 500 nΜ Dex or an equal volume (0.05% v/v of media) of ethanol as a vehicle control for 6 hours at 37°C in DMEM with 190 5% stripped FBS. Total cellular RNA was isolated utilizing the NucleoSpin RNA II kit (Macherey-Nagel).RNA isolates were first quantified by standard spectrophotometry, and then qualitatively evaluated by capillary electrophoresis employing the Bio-Rad Experion system per the manufacturer’s instruction. The final labeled cRNA samples were hybridized overnight to Illumina mouseWG-6 BeadChip arrays, which was performed at UCSF Genomic Core. All treatments were done in triplicates and the same batch of microarrays were used for all treatments. The Illumina expression arrays were pre-processed using lumi package. The differential expression analysis was performed using the Limma package.
