Project description:Investigate the effects loss of skeletal muscle Bmal1 has on systemic transcriptomes +/- exercise training. Mouse liver, heart, white adipose and lung tissues were collected 47 hours post their last exercise bout, with or without 6-weeks of daily treadmill training. +/- Skeletal muscle Bmal1
Project description:TMT analysis of proteomic changes in the gastrocnemius skeletal muscles of WT and Bmal1-KO mice, and Bmal1-KO mice rescued with AAV-mediated muscle-specific expression of Bmal1.
Project description:We generated a tamoxifen-inducible skeletal muscle-specific Bmal1 knockout mouse model and performed a time-course microarray experiment to identify gene expression changes downstream of the molecular clock. We report the transcrpt expression profiles in adult gastrocnemius skeletal muscle harvested from iMS-Bmal1-/- and at 4 hour intervals for a full circadian time-course (6 time-points).
Project description:Background: Exercising is know to have an effect on exercising skeletal muscle, but unkown is the effect on non-exercising skeletal muscle. Gene expression changes in the non-exercising skeletal muscle would point to a signalling role of skeletal muscle 9 healthy middle-aged men performed 1 hour of one-legged exercise, before and afterwards muscle biopsies were taken from both legs. Skeletal muscle biopsies were analyzed by microarray.
