Project description:To compare the snRNA seq transcriptional profile in renal tubule cells after conditional deletion of Cpt1a to floxed littermate controls, in mice fed a high fat diet for 2 years, and to compare mice aged 2 years with high fat diet to young mice.
Project description:This study sought to interrogate the effects of lipids and lipid metabolites on the hepatic proteome. Protein expression in high-fat diet (HFD) mouse livers vs. livers of normal chow fed (NC) mice were investigated using multiplexed quantitative LC-MS/MS (TMT labeling). This experiment contains additional replicates for normal chow and mice on high-fat diet for 16 weeks.
Project description:Aging and obesity are associated with pro-inflammatory changes in adipose tissue. Overlapping mechanisms, such as the infiltration of inflammatory macrophages and T cells into visceral adipose tissue, have been implicated in contributing inflammation. However, a comparative analysis from both states is needed to identify distinct regulatory targets. Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing of stromal vascular fractions (SVF) isolated from gonadal white adipose tissue (gWAT) of young mice fed a normal or a high-fat diet, and aged mice fed a normal diet. Our analysis revealed that physiological aging, more so than high-fat diet induced obesity, was associated with accumulation of phenotypically distinct CD8 T cells resembling virtual memory (VM) CD8 T cells.
Project description:We performed translatome and transcriptome sequencing (RNC-seq and RNA-seq) on the livers of normal chow diet-, high-fat diet- and High-fat diet plus lycopene-fed mice.
Project description:The present study aimed to examine the effect of high-fat diet prior to pregnancy on the liver of mouse offspring. Female C57BL/6J mice were fed a normal chow (15.2% fat by energy) (CTR and CTR-PP groups) or a high-fat chow (31.2% fat by energy) (HFD and HFD-PP groups) for 3−4 weeks and then mated with male C57BL/6J mice fed normal chow. Some mothers continued on the same diet until pups reached 21 days of age (CTR and HFD), and others were fed the different chows from gestational day 0 (CTR-PP and HFD-PP) to determine the effects of a high-fat diet during the pre-pregnancy period in HFD-PP/CTR and HFD/CTR-PP comparisons. RNA sample was taken from liver of 3-week-old mouse prenatally received high-fat diet prior to pregnancy, during pregnancy and lactation, or through prior to and during pregnancy and lactation, while control RNA was taken from control counterpart prenatally received normal diet alone. Comparisons among groups were made by one-color method with normalized data from Cy3 channels for data analysis.
Project description:High sugar consumption, as well as high-fat diet, is a known cause of obesity and metabolic syndrome. However, the synergistic effect of high-sugar and high-fat consumption rarely has been evaluated, especially in terms of transcriptional regulation. Therefore, we focused on the effect of high sugar consumption on hepatic transcriptional networks in normal and high fat-fed mice. C57BL/6J mice were divided into four groups and were provided either 23%(w/v) sugar solution or plain water with either high-fat or normal-fat diet for 10 weeks. As a result, high sugar consumption significantly altered lipid metabolism-related genes in normal fat-fed mice; however, in high fat-fed mice, high sugar consumption altered inflammation-responsive genes rather than lipid metabolism. After all, these modulations eventually increased lipid accumulation in the liver and caused systemic metabolic disturbances. These observations for the first time suggested that high sugar consumption along with high-fat diet could lead to the development of severe metabolic syndrome via altering hepatic transcriptional networks.
Project description:We performed gene expression profiling analysis using data from RNAseq of brain frontal cortex from four months high fat diet fed WT (n=10), AKO (n=10), four months high fat diet fed condition human amylin mice followed by vehicle (n=10) or Tamoxifen (n=10) injection for another two months, and 2 months high fat diet fed WT mice (n=10).
Project description:determine the effect of the high-fat diet on the proteomics profile of liver tissue.Mice were fed with HFD for 16 weeks to establish a NAFLD mouse model. Mice fed with normal chow diet were taken as controls. Five replicate liver samples were collected from each group for proteomics analysis.
