Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of cellular pathways. The goals of this study are to evaluate the effects of liver-specific E4BP4 overexpression under mouse albumin promoter on the muscle glucose and lipid metabolism. Methods: We generated transgenic mice (TG) with liver-specific E4BP4 overexpression. Gasrocnemius muscles were isolated at Zeitgeber Time (ZT) 0 or 12 from transgenic mice and WT littermates, and total RNA was extracted. Muscle RNA profiles were generated by deep sequencing for four groups with three mouse samples each. Results: There were no significant differences between WT and transgenic mice at both ZT0 and 12. Conclusions: Muscle metabolism was not altered at the transcription level by liver specific overexpression of E4BP4. Overall design: Muscle mRNA profiles of 8-week old wild type mice and transgenic mice with liver-specific E4BP4 overexpression Less...
