Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE18598: Differentiating 3T3-L1 adipocytes, introduced with siRNA against aof2 and rfk genes, or treated with tranylcypromine GSE18599: Differentiating 3T3-L1 adipocytes, introduced with siRNA against phf21a gene Refer to individual Series
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of mouse 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The objective of this study is to explore gene expression profiles of 3T3-L1 adipocytes in response to GDE5 siRNA transfection.
Project description:Using RNA-Seq, we compared the transcriptomes of differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes for control and ZFP407-deficient cells Differentiated 3T3-L1 cells were electroporated with control or 1 of 2 Zfp407 siRNAs. Six independent siRNA electroporations were conducted for the control siRNA and 3 independent electroporations were conducted for each Zfp407 siRNA.
Project description:Adipogenic differentiation and metabolic adaptation are initiated through transcriptional and epigenetic reprogramming. In particular, dynamic changes in histone modifications may play central roles in the rearrangement of gene expression patterns. LSD1 (KDM1) protein, encoded by aof2 gene, is a histone demethylase, which is involved in transcriptional regulation. Since the enzymatic activity of LSD1 is FAD (flavin adenine dinucleotide)-dependent, its effects on gene expression may be influenced by FAD availability. To address the importance of histone demethylation in adipogenic differentiation and function, we performed cDNA microarray in LSD1-deficient 3T3-L1 cells as well as in the cells treated with LSD1 inhibitor tranylcypromine (TC). FAD-synthesizing enyme, riboflavin kinase (RFK) -deficient cells were also subjected to the microarray analysis. 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were transfected with aof2- or rfk- specific siRNA or control siRNA (siGL3) . 24 hours later, cells were subjected to adipogenic induction. 24 hours later, cells were harvested for total RNA extraction. For the TC treatment, TC was added to the adipogenic induction medium.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of pre-adipocytes 3T3-L1 reveals anti-adipogenic potential to metabolic associated diseases through whole transcriptomic analysis. We evaluated the effects of Tsuruazuki extract on pre-adipocytes 3T3-L1. We performed an untargeted whole-genome transcriptome analysis to explore functionality of Tsuru on 3T3-L1 cells.
