View SamplesInsulin degrading enzyme (IDE) is a major enzyme responsible for insulin degradation in the liver. The modulation of insulin degrading enzyme activity is hypothesized to be a link between T2DM and liver cancer. Results provide insight into role of IDE in proliferation and other cell functions.

View SamplesSubcutaneous adipose tissue and longissimus dorsi muacle were isolated from Large White pig at 3 days of age, and subcutaneous and intramuscular stromal vascular (SV) cells were obtained as the procedure modified from previous reports. Six Solexa sequencing samples were collected during subcutaneous and intramuscular SV cells adipogenic differentiation at day 0, 2, 4.

View SamplesOxidative stress in adipose tissue and liver has been linked to the development of obesity. NADPH oxidases (NOX) enzymes are a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The current study was designed to determine if NOX2-generated ROS play a role in development of obesity and metabolic syndrome after high fat feeding. Wild type (WT) mice and mice lacking the cytosolic NOX2 activated protein p47phox (P47KO) were fed AIN-93G diets or high fat diets (HFD) containing 45% fat and 0.5% cholesterol for 13 weeks from weaning. Affymetrix array analysis revealed dramatically less expression of mRNA of genes linked to energy metabolism, adipocyte differentiation (PPAR, Runx2) and fatty acid uptake (CD36, lipoprotein lipase) in fat pads from female HFD-P47KO mice compared to HFD-WT females. These data suggest that NOX2 is an important regulator of metabolic homeostasis and that NOX2-associated ROS plays an important role in development of diet-induced obesity particularly in the female
Female mice lacking p47phox have altered adipose tissue gene expression and are protected against high fat-induced obesity.

View SamplesMaternal obesity during the pre-implantation period leads to a pro-inflammatory milieu in the ovaries. We conducted a global transcriptomic profiling in ovaries from TEN fed rats during the pre-implantation period. Microarray analysis revealed that obesity lead to increased expression of genes related to inflammation, decreased glucose transporters, and dysregulation of ovarian function-related genes in the ovaries. Our results suggest maternal obesity led to an up-regulation of inflammatory genes and Egr-1 protien expression in peri-implantation ovarian tissue, and a concurrent down-regulation of glucose transporters mRNA and AKT and PI3K protein levels.
Maternal obesity is associated with ovarian inflammation and upregulation of early growth response factor 1.
