Project description:We futher characterized genome-wide chromatin accessibility of WT and SRC-2-/- mouse liver at CT10 through DNase-Seq. In addition,chromatin accessibility was significantly reduced in SRC-2-/- mouse liver compared to WT mice at CT10. DNase-Seq was carried out in WT and SRC-2-/- mice in liver at CT10 using two doses of DNaseI.

Project description:We generated genome-wide cistromes of BAF180 subunit of the SWI-SNF chromatin remodeling complex in mouse liver at CT10 and CT22. In addition, we performed ChIP-Seq analysis on REV-ERBα in WT and SRC-2-/- mouse liver at CT10. We found circadian oscilation of BAF180 chromatin recruitment in mouse liver with peak recruitment at CT22 and nadir at CT10. Further,REV-ERBα chromatin recruitment was significantly reduced in SRC-2-/- mouse liver compared to WT mice at CT10. ChIP-Seq for BAF180 was performed in WT mice liver at CT10 and CT22 using two different antibodies. ChIP-Seq for REV-ERBα was performed in WT and SRC-2-/- mice in liver at CT10 with biological replicates.

Project description:The ketogenic diet has been successful in promoting weight loss among patients that have struggled with weight gain. This is due to the cellular switch in metabolism that utilizes liver-derived ketone bodies for the primary energy source rather than glucose. Fatty acid transport protein 2 (FATP2) is highly expressed in liver, small intestine, and kidney where it functions in both the transport of exogenous long chain fatty acids (LCFA) and in the activation to CoA thioesters of very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA). We have completed a multi-omic study of FATP2-null (Fatp2-/-) mice maintained on a ketogenic diet (KD) or paired control diet (CD), with and without a 24-hour fast (KD-fasted and CD-fasted) to address the impact of deleting FATP2 under high-stress conditions. Control (wt/wt) and Fatp2-/- mice were maintained on their respective diets for 4-weeks. Afterwards, half the population was sacrificed while the remaining were fasted for 24-hours prior to sacrifice. We then performed paired-end RNA-sequencing on the whole liver tissue to investigate differential gene expression. The differentially expressed genes mapped to ontologies such as the metabolism of amino acids and derivatives, fatty acid metabolism, protein localization, and components of the immune system’s complement cascade, and were supported by the proteome and histological staining.
Project description:The aim of this study was to assess whether chronic treatment with RPV can modulate the progression of chronic liver disease, especially of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), through a nutritional model in wild-type mice Mice were daily treated with RPV (p.o.) and fed with normal or high fat diet during 3 months to induce fatty liver disease

Project description:We collected whole genome testis expression data from hybrid zone mice. We integrated GWAS mapping of testis expression traits and low testis weight to gain insight into the genetic basis of hybrid male sterility.
