Project description:Regulation of nutrient status during fasting and refeeding plays an important role in maintaining metabolic homeostasis in the liver. Thus, we investigated the impact of the physiological fed–fasted–refed cycle on hepatic gene expression in nutrient-sensitive mice. We performed transcriptomic analysis of liver samples in fed, fasted and refed groups of mice. Through mRNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) and miRNA-Seq, we compared fasted and fed states (fasted versus fed cohort) as well as refed and fasted states (refed versus fasted cohort) to detect dynamic alterations of hepatic mRNA– miRNA expression during the fed–fasted–refed cycle

Project description:Liver from RICTOR knockout mice show normal levels of mTORC1 signaling in response to refeeding. With this experiment we sought to compare the effects of Rictor depletion to the effects of mTORC1 inhibition by rapamycin in liver from mice that were fasted and refed.
Project description:To determine how feeding and fasting might alter transcription, we analyzed liver mRNA from wild-type fasted (WT_F) or wild-type fasted and refed (WT_R) mice by gene expression arrays.
Project description:Spatial heterogeneity and plasticity of the mammalian liver is critical for systemic metabolic homeostasis in response to fluctuating nutritional status. Here, we generated a high-resolution transcriptomic landscape of the livers from mice that were either fed chow (fed), fasted for 18 h (fasted), or fasted for 18 h and then refed for 6 h (refed) using spatial transcriptomics (ST) and quantified changes in gene expression. This work provides a critical foundation for future mechanistic studies of liver metabolic heterogeneity and plasticity, and will help to understand the zonated pathology during liver disease progression.
Project description:To examine the effect of MAF1 on the RNA polymerase II transcriptome, RNA-seq was performed on samples of liver from overnight fasted and four hour refed wild-type and whole-body Maf1-/- mice.
Project description:To characterize the PolIII transcription changes in Maf1-/- samples, we perfomeded ChIP-seq on WT and Maf1-/- Mouse liver samples. Mice were either fasted during eight hours or fasted for four hours and then refed.
Project description:Transcript data from liver receptor homolog-1 (LRH-1) WT and LRH-1 K289R livers from mice fasted for 24h followed by 6h refed. We used microarrays to detail the global program of gene expression underlying hepatic function under refed conditions.
Project description:Liver from RICTOR knockout mice show normal levels of mTORC1 signaling in response to refeeding. With this experiment we sought to compare the effects of Rictor depletion to the effects of mTORC1 inhibition by rapamycin in liver from mice that were fasted and refed. Mice were either fasted for 24hr (n=5), or fasted for 22hr then treated with either 10mg/kg rapamycin suspended in 0.9% NaCl and 2% ethanol at a concentration of 1mg/ml (547mM), or vehicle only. After an additional 2 hr, one group of mice (0 hr time, n=3) was sacrificed, the liver immediately removed, and flash frozen in liquid nitrogen. The remaining mice were given ad libitum access to food and sacrificed after 3hr (n=3), 6hr (n=3), or 12 hr (n=3). Two other nonfasted groups of mice (n=2) were injected with either vehicle or rapamycin and sacrificed after 24hr. Submitter cannot locate the CEL files.
