Project description:We used microarrays to detail the gene expression profile during WAT -beige transition by treatment of beta adrenergic receptor agonist . Stromal vascular fractions (SVF) from mice (n = 3/group) that received vehicle or beta3 adrenergic receptor agonist, CL, treatment were served for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We are trying to find out angiogenic factors genes dynamics during white adipose tissues (WAT) - beige transition.
Project description:Beige fat cells dissipate energy through mitochondrial uncoupling protein UCP1 defending against obesity and can be activated by thermogenic stimuli in white adipose tissue. Here, we provide candidate molecules involved in beige fat activation induced the TZD, rosiglitazone.
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.
