An alternative promoter of the PGC-1 alpha gene gives arrise to 3 new isofroms of the PGC-1 alpha gene refered to as PGC-1a2 (A2), PGC-1a3 (A3) and PGC-1a4 (A4). The proximal PGC-1 alpha promotor transcribes the canonical PGC-1 alpha which is refered to as PGC-1a1 (A1).G1/G2/G3 samples refer to the ...

PGC1beta is a transcriptional coactivator that potently stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis and respiration of cells. Here, we have generated mice lacking exons 3 to 4 of the Pgc1beta gene (PGC1beta E3,4-/E3,4- mice). These mice express a mutant protein that has reduced coactivation activity on a su...

Brown fat generates heat via the mitochondrial uncoupling protein UCP1, defending against hypothermia and obesity. Recent data suggest that there are two distinct types of brown fat: classical brown fat derived from a myf-5 cellular lineage and UCP1-positive cells that emerge in white fat from a non...

PPARγ is a member of the nuclear receptor family for which agonist ligands have anti-growth effects. However, clinical studies using PPARγ ligands as a monotherapy failed to show a beneficial effect. Here we have studied the effects of PPARγ activation with chemotherapeutic agents in current us...

Medium conditioned by LLC cells stimulates thermogenic gene expression when added onto primary adipocytes. We generated single cell colonies from parental LLC cells. Media conditioned by the subclones stimulated thermogenic gene expression in primary adipocytes at varying degrees. Subclones 2, 3, 6 ...

Comparing gene expression profiles of murine subcutaneous vs. visceral adipose tissue. Gene expression was analyzed in two subcutaneous depots (inguinal and axillary) and two visceral depots (epididymal and mesenteric) from male C57Bl/6 mice. 4 samples were analyzed as two groups: inguinal and axill...

Comparing gene expression profile in 3T3-F442A adipocytes with shRNA against TRPV4 or GFP. TRPV4 is an ion channel expressed in adipocytes. Results provided information that how loss-of-function of TRPV4 affects gene expression in adipocytes. 4 samples were analyzed as two groups: shGFP (control) an...
