Project description:Transriptome of brown adipose tissues from E18, 4 and 10 days old, and 4 and 8 weeks old C57BL6/N mice were examined to describe the development of the tissue.
Project description:Gene expression profile from brown adipose tissues of Prdm16 knockout and wile type mice. Prdm16 is a transcription factor that regulates the thermogenic gene program in brown and beige adipocytes. However, whether Prdm16 is required for the development or physiological function of brown adipose tissue (BAT) in vivo has been unclear. By analyzing mice that selectively lacked Prdm16 in the brown adipose lineage, we found that Prdm16 was dispensable for embryonic BAT development.

Prdm16 is a transcription factor that regulates the thermogenic gene program in brown and beige adipocytes. However, whether Prdm16 is required for the development or physiological function of brown adipose tissue (BAT) in vivo has been unclear. By analyzing mice that selectively lacked Prdm16 in the brown adipose lineage, we found that Prdm16 was dispensable for embryonic BAT development. Brown adipose tissues were collected from Prdm16 knockout and wiletype mice with 4 biological replicates per condition. Experiment was done in two separate batch for 6-week-old and 11-month-old. Extracted RNA was hybridized to Agilent two-color arrays.
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. Keywords: tissue comparison from mice
Project description:This project aims to identify the proteins present in RNA granules of brown adipose tissue upon exposure to cold challenge. Wild type C57BL/6J mice were born and raised at thermoneutrality and were then subjected to cold exposure for 90 minutes. Brown adipose tissues were collected, and the protein lysates of RNA granules isolated from the brown adipose tissues were separated using SDS-PAGE gels and visualized with Coomassie stain. The protein bands were subsequently excised for downstream sample processing.
Project description:TIme course of gene expression changes in epididymal white adipose tissue of 3-4 month old male Bl6 mice treated with CL 316243 for 0,1,3 or 6 days Keywords: time-course
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.
