Project description:Identify genes in the gonadal adipose tissue whose expression is under genetic regulation in the Hybrid Mouse Diversity Panel (HMDP). The HMDP comprises classical inbred and recombinant inbred wild type mice. The RMA values of genes were used for genome wide association as described in Parks et al Cell Metabolism 2015. These data are used to identify candidate genes at loci associated with obesity and dietary responsiveness. GWAS for expression of gonadal adipose tissue in inbred strains fed chow diet for 8 weeks followed by high-fat/high-sucrose diet 8 weeks
Project description:Identify genes in the skeletal muscle whose expression is under genetic regulation in the Hybrid Mouse Diversity Panel (HMDP). The HMDP comprises classical inbred and recombinant inbred wild type mice. The neqc-normalized values of genes were used for genome wide association. These data are used to identify candidate genes at loci associated with obesity and dietary responsiveness. GWAS for expression of skeletal muscle in inbred strains fed chow diet for 8 weeks followed by high-fat/high-sucrose diet 8 weeks
Project description:The impact of high fat diet on secreted milk small RNA transcriptome was studied by isolating total RNA from milk fat fraction collected on lactation day 10 from control diet fed (C; n=5; 10% fat; 7% sucrose; Research Diets #D12450J, Brunswick, NJ) and high fat diet fed (HF; n=4; Research Diets #D12492, 60% of total kcal energy is fat and match 7% of total kcal is sucrose; Brunswick, NJ) mice.
