RNA-seq of gonadal adipose tissue from male and female Trim28-WT and Trim28 adipose specific KO mice
Many genes have been implicated in WAT lipid metabolism, including tripartite motif containing 28 (Trim28), a gene proposed to primarily influence adiposity via epigenetic mechanisms in embryonic development. We set out to determine if adipose specific deletion of Trim28 led to changes in adipose tissue function and molecular phenotype. We performed transcriptomics analysis on adipose tissue taken from WT and adipose specific Trim28 KO mice to investigate their molecular phenotype, and to identify pathways altered in KO animals.
