Expression data from Control diet, Western diet and Western diet + DHA fed rats.

ABSTRACT: LV hypertrophy is associated with Western diet consumption, while intake of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids is associated with anti-hypertrophic effects. We treated rats for 12 weeks with either a Control diet, a Western diet or a Western + DHA diet. For each of the 3 dietary treatments there were 2 pooled samples of heart tissue (with each pooled sample representing 5 rats) for a total of 6 arrays. Microarray analysis identified 66 differentially expressed transcripts. Pathways were identified using Ingenuity and DAVID software. Array results from two pooled samples (5 rats in each pool) for n=10 per treatment group were used for comparisons. Comparisons between Western vs. Control, Western + DHA vs. Control and Western + DHA vs. Western diets was subjected to analysis to generate log
