Project description:Global expression profile of human osteoblast treated with recombinant TGF-beta compared to human osteoblast treated with growth media alone Dye-swap design with 6 biological replicates. Three arrays performed with TGF-beta treated samples on channel 1 and media-alone treated on channel 2; three arrays performed with TGF-beta treated samples on channel 2 and media-alone on channel 1.
Project description:Primary dermal fibroblasts from patients with dSSc and healthy controls were treated with TGF beta for up to 24h and the genome-wide patterns of gene expression measured on DNA microarrays. 894 genes were identified as TGF beta-responsive in 4 independent cultures of dermal fibroblasts (2 healthy control and 2 dSSc patients). The 894 genes in the TGF beta-responsive signature are associated with induction of growth factor signaling, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix deposition.
Project description:We used microarrays to detail the gene expression profile during WAT -beige transition by treatment of beta adrenergic receptor agonist .
