    Roles of Adipose Tissue-Derived Factors in Adipose Tissue Development and Lipid Metabolism Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jinsoo Ahn, M.S. Graduate Program in Ohio State University Nutrition The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Kichoon Lee, Ph.D., Advisor Earl H. Harrison, Ph.D. Ramesh Selvaraj, Ph.D. Ouliana Ziouzenkova, Ph.D. Copyright by Jinsoo Ahn 2015 Abstract Obesity is a global trend and major risk factor for serious diseases including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension. Obesity is characterized by excess fat accumulation, especially in the visceral area. The pathogenic effects related to common obesity are largely attributed to dysregulated secretion of adipokines followed by insulin resistance in peripheral tissues when adipose tissue mass is altered. White adipose tissue serves as a dynamic endocrine organ as well as a major energy reservoir for whole-body energy homeostasis. Adipokines influence various metabolic processes in the body including adipocyte differentiation; however, precise physiological roles of adipokines need to be further investigated. In addition, a large proportion of adipokines still needs to be identified. Information from the gene expression omnibus (GEO) profile, a public repository for microarray data, combined with confirmatory studies on mRNA and protein expression were used to identify a novel adipose tissue-specific gene, chordin-like 1 (Chrdl1). Further analysis showed that Chrdl1 encodes a putative secreted protein which is a new adipokine. Chrdl1 expression increases during 3T3-L1 adipocyte development in vitro and mouse adipose tissue development in vivo.

  • The Basal Bodies of Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii Susan K
    Dutcher and O’Toole Cilia (2016) 5:18 DOI 10.1186/s13630-016-0039-z Cilia REVIEW Open Access The basal bodies of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Susan K. Dutcher1* and Eileen T. O’Toole2 Abstract The unicellular green alga, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, is a biflagellated cell that can swim or glide. C. reinhardtii cells are amenable to genetic, biochemical, proteomic, and microscopic analysis of its basal bodies. The basal bodies contain triplet microtubules and a well-ordered transition zone. Both the mother and daughter basal bodies assemble flagella. Many of the proteins found in other basal body-containing organisms are present in the Chlamydomonas genome, and mutants in these genes affect the assembly of basal bodies. Electron microscopic analysis shows that basal body duplication is site-specific and this may be important for the proper duplication and spatial organization of these organelles. Chlamydomonas is an excellent model for the study of basal bodies as well as the transition zone. Keywords: Site-specific basal body duplication, Cartwheel, Transition zone, Centrin fibers Phylogeny and conservation of proteins Centrin, SPD2/CEP192, Asterless/CEP152; CEP70, The green lineage or Viridiplantae consists of the green delta-tubulin, and epsilon-tubulin. Chlamydomonas has algae, which include Chlamydomonas, the angiosperms homologs of all of these based on sequence conservation (the land plants), and the gymnosperms (conifers, cycads, except PLK4, CEP152, and CEP192.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Its yearling weight and carcass traits (backfat thickness, carcass weight, eye muscle area, and marbling score) are economically important for the selection of young and proven bulls. In recent decades, the advent of high throughput genotyping technologies has made it possible to perform genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for the detection of genomic regions associated with traits of economic interest in different species. In this study, we conducted a weighted single-step genome-wide association study which combines all genotypes, phenotypes and pedigree data in one step (ssGBLUP). It allows for the use of all SNPs simultaneously along with all phenotypes from genotyped and ungenotyped animals. Our results revealed 33 relevant genomic regions related to the traits of interest.

    Effects of environmental factors on the gonadal transcriptome of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax), juvenile growth and sex ratios Noelia Díaz Blanco Ph.D. thesis 2014 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Ph.D. degree from the Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF). This work has been carried out at the Group of Biology of Reproduction (GBR), at the Department of Renewable Marine Resources of the Institute of Marine Sciences (ICM-CSIC). Thesis supervisor: Dr. Francesc Piferrer Professor d’Investigació Institut de Ciències del Mar (ICM-CSIC) i ii A mis padres A Xavi iii iv Acknowledgements This thesis has been made possible by the support of many people who in one way or another, many times unknowingly, gave me the strength to overcome this "long and winding road". First of all, I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Francesc Piferrer, for his patience, guidance and wise advice throughout all this Ph.D. experience. But above all, for the trust he placed on me almost seven years ago when he offered me the opportunity to be part of his team. Thanks also for teaching me how to question always everything, for sharing with me your enthusiasm for science and for giving me the opportunity of learning from you by participating in many projects, collaborations and scientific meetings. I am also thankful to my colleagues (former and present Group of Biology of Reproduction members) for your support and encouragement throughout this journey. To the “exGBRs”, thanks for helping me with my first steps into this world. Working as an undergrad with you Dr.
