Project description:Chronic high sugar feeding induces obesity, hyperglycemia, and insulin resistance in flies and mammals. These phenotypes are controlled by the fat body, a liver- and adipose- like tissue in Drosophila flies. To gain insight into the mechanisms underlying the connection between diet and insulin sensitivity, we used Illumina RNA-seq to profile gene expression in fat bodies isolated from chronically high sugar fed, wandering (post-prandial) third instar wild type larvae w(L3). These data were compared to control-fed wild-type wL3 fat bodies as well as those expressing transgenic interfering RNA (i) targeting CG18362 (Mio/dChREBP) in the fat body on both diets. Female VDRC w1118, cgGAL4, UAS-Dcr2 or UAS-ChREBPi(52606), cgGAL4, UAS-Dcr2 wandering third instar larvae were fed control (0.15M) or high (0.7M) sucrose and fat bodies isolated for RNA extraction.

Project description:RNA-Seq of Spodoptera frugiperda hemocytes and fat bodies following viral infection
Project description:we collected tissues of subcutaneous fat and longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle from individuals that have divergent of backfat thickness and intramuscular fat content, and have similar age and body weight. The transcriptomic and proteomic data were gained using RNA-Seq and TMT to identify the key genes and pathways that specifically regulate the subcutaneous fat and intramuscular fat deposition in Dingyuan pig.
Project description:We use mRNA-seq to transcriptionally profile larval fat body and midgut tissues from Drosophila third instar larvae. These data provide insights into tissue physiology and can be used to identify tissue specific transcripts. Fat bodies from wandering third instar larvae were dissected from ~50 male larvae and gonads were removed to eliminate contaminating transctips from the gonads. Larval midguts were dissected from ~50 wandering third instar larvae. Larval tissues were removed to Graces unsupplemented medium on ice prior to RNA extraction with TRIzol reagent. mRNA-seq samples were prepared from 5ug of total RNA and subject to Illumina based sequencing.
Project description:These data include the genome wide location of different histone modifications by ChIP sequencing in mouse ES cells, and RNA Seq data generated from wild type and EED KO mouse ES cells and knocked down for unrelated protein and Setd2 protein. ChIP-Seq: Immuno-precipitation of formaldehyde cross-linked chromatin prepared from wild type mouse E14 ES cells, wild type E36 ES cells, EED KO E36 ES cells, wild type Embryoid bodies (Ebs), EED KO Embryoid bodies (Ebs EED KO) using specific antibody against different histone modifications. RNA-Seq: Total RNA extracted from wild type E36 ES cells, EED KO E36 ES cells, wild type E36 Embryoid bodies (Ebs), EED KO Embryoid bodies (Ebs EED KO), E14 Ctrl KD, E14 Setd2 KD.
