Project description:SILAC based protein correlation profiling using size exclusion of protein complexes derived from seven Mus musculus tissues (Heart, Brain, Liver, Lung, Kidney, Skeletal Muscle, Thymus)
Project description:Growing evidence indicates that PPARγ agonists, such as rosiglitazone (RSG,), induce adipose mitochondrial biogenesis. Using microarrays, we systematically analyzed nucleus-encoded mitochondrial gene expression in two common murine adipocyte models, 3T3 L1 and C3H/10T1/2 adipocytes, and aimed to further establish the direct role of RSG, and capture the temporal changes in mitochondrial gene transcription during this process. Experiment Overall Design: Fully differentiated 3T3 L1 and C3H/10T1/2 adipocytes were treated with RSG, or DMSO vehicle for 1, 2, 4, 7, 24, and 48 hrs, and total RNA was extracted for microarray analysis.
Project description:In this study, we used C3H/10T1/2 cells, a well known model of myogenic conversion, to study the effect of Six4 knockdown on the expression of genes during fibroblasts to myocytes conversion induced by ectopic expression of MyoD We established C3H/10T1/2 cell line with stable Six4 knockdown by short hairpin RNA (shSix4) vs a control cell line (shLuc) and converted these cells into myogenic lineage by retroviral transduction of plasmid encoding Flag-MyoD-myc (pBABE-MyoD) or empty plasmid (pBABE). Cells were then induced to differentiate for 24 hours before RNA extraction.
