Project description:We have shown that intravenous injection of HDAC3 floxed mice with adeno-associated virus (AAV) expressing Cre depletes hepatic HDAC3, upregulates lipogenic gene expression, and causes fatty liver. When AAV-Flag-HDAC3 wild-type (WT) is co-injected along with AAV-Cre, the exogenous HDAC3 is expressed at endogenous levels and can completely rescue fatty liver phenotype. Here we profile transcriptome of the rescued WT livers in comparison with HDAC3-depleted (KO) livers.

Here we profile transcriptome of the rescued WT livers in comparison with HDAC3-depleted (KO) livers. 4-months old C57BL/6 male mice were co-injected with AAV-Cre or AAV-Cre plus AAV-Flag-HDAC3. Mice were fed ad libitum and harvested at 5 pm (ZT10) at 2-weeks post-injection. Liver total RNA was extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0ST array.
Project description:We found that several deacetylase-dead HDAC3 mutants were able to rescue the metabolic phenotype of HDAC3-depleted livers. Here we profile the histone acetylation in the presence of different HDAC3 mutants in mouse liver. Deacetylase-dead HDAC3 mutants, including HAHA, KA, YF and HEBI, were introduced into HDAC3-depleted (Cre) mouse livers by virus along with wild-type (WT) HDAC3 as a control. Livers were harvested at 5 pm (ZT 10) and subjected to ChIP with anti-H3K9ac antibodies followed by deep sequencing.
Project description:Liver-specific depletion of HDAC3 leads to liver steatosis (fatty liver), suggesting disregulation of lipid metabolism. This is correlated with changes in lipid metabolic gene expression. Livers depleted of HDAC3 were removed from 12 week old male HDAC3 fl/fl mice (loxP sites flanking exon 4 to 7 of the HDAC3 gene encoding the catalytic domain of HDAC3) one week after the injection of AAV2/8-Tbg-Cre virus. Livers from the HDAC3 fl/fl mice injected with AAV2/8-Tbg-GFP were used as normal controls. mRNA was extracted from 100mg mouse liver samples and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays. For each group (HDAC3 depleted liver and normal liver), we have 5 samples from different mice.
Project description:We reported changes in the recruitment of H3K9ac and H3K27ac in HDAC3-depleted mouse testes in the late meiotic and early haploid stages. We also investigated genome-wide occupancy of HDAC3, NCOR and Sox30 to the mouse testes from wild-type and Sox30 KO mice.
