Project description:The goal of this study was to define the gene expression changes that take place in the white adipose tissue of KSR2-/- mice at 6 months of age. Three wild type mice and three KSR2-/- mice were used for total RNA extraction from white adipose tissue. The RNA from each mouse was analyzed on one Affymetrix gene chip and the differences were compared using Gene Set Enrichment Analysis.
Project description:The aim was to study the effects of Nur77 on the white adipose tissue transcriptome after fasting. For this purpose we performed gene expression profiling of white adipose tissue from Nur77-/- mice and wildtype (Nur77+/+) littermates submitted to prolonged fasting using microarray analysis on >27k elements cDNA microarrays.

Project description:Transcript profiling to identify genes where the mRNA expression levels are differentially regulated in white adipose tissue of transgenic mice overexpressing the FOXC2 gene compared with adipose tissue of wild-type mice.
Project description:Differentiation of brown adipocytes is a crucial process for adaptive thermogenesis, which is stimulated by various factors. We found robust browning of inguinal white adipose tissue in UCP1/ApoE-DKO mice, but not in ApoE-KO mice, under high-fat diet condition. We used microarray to determine the genes specifically regulated in the browning white adipose tissue in UCP1/ApoE-DKO mice.
Project description:The aim of this study was to identify genes expressed selectively in brown adipose tissue as compared to white adipose tissue from the same animals. This analysis provides a gene set that is brown and white adipose selective. Keywords: tissue comparison from mice
Project description:Cold exposure imposes a metabolic challenge to mammals that must be met by a coordinated repsonse in different tissues to prevent hypothermia. This study reports analysis of transcriptome profiles in brown adipose tissue, liver, white adipose of mice in repsonse to 24 hour cold exposure Total RNA was extracted from brown adipose, whie adipose and liver from cold treated and control plants. 3 replicates of brown adipose and white adipose and 2 replicates of liver samples.
Project description:Slc35d3 adipose-specific knockin (SAKI) mice were generated by crossbreeding mice carrying the Slc35d3 transgene locus controlled by loxp-stop-loxp sequence (LSL-Slc35d3) with adiponectin-derived Cre mice, which is a mouse model that expresses the cre enzyme specifically in adipose tissues. Male 6-week-old Slc35d3 adipose-specific knockin mice (SAKI group) and their control mice (wild-type mice, WT group) were fed a normal standard chow diet (NCD, 10 kal% fat, D09100304, Research Diets, Inc) for 10 weeks. All mice reached the experimental endpoint at 16 weeks of age. Mice in WT group were used as controls. Upon reaching the experimental endpoint, inguinal white adipose tissue (IngWAT) from three SAKI mice and three WT mice were removed for RNA sequencing.
