Expression profiling of mouse bone marrow skeletal progenitors with osteogenic and adipogenic potential and adipogenic progenitors treated with IFN?.
Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were isolated from the femora and tibiae of irtTA-GBD*-TAg transgenic mice. Using cellular cloning we established skeletal progenitors with unipotent osteogenic and adipogenic properties. Previous RNA-seq analysis of more progenitor types revealed differential expression in members of the Interferon-gamma (IFN?) signaling pathway. Treatment of adipogenic progenitors with IFN? inhibited adipogenesis and promoted osteogenesis. RNA-seq analysis of osteogenic, adipogenic and IFN? treated adipogenic clones revealed factors controlling the osteogenic versus adipogenic commitment of bone marrow skeletal progenitors. Overall design: Expression profiling (RNA-seq) of three biological replicates representing skeletal progenitors with osteogenic potential, adipogenic potential and adipogenic progenitors after treatment with IFN? for 3 days
