Project name: Comparison of white adipose tissue and bone marrow adipose tissue from New Zealand White rabbits

Description: Microarray analysis of white adipose tissue (WAT) and bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) from 22-week-old or 13-week-old male New Zealand White rabbits.From both cohorts, BMAT was sampled from the distal tibia (dBMAT) and the radius and ulna (ruBMAT), while WAT was sampled from the inguinal (iWAT) and gonadal (gWAT) depots. From the 13-week-old cohort, BMAT was also sampled from the proximal tibia (pBMAT). Sufficient RNA could not be isolated from all tissues for all rabbits, so for some rabbits only a subset of tissues is included.Overall design: The goal of this study was to determine global differences in gene expression between WAT and BMAT and whether these differ by WAT and/or BMAT depot. Five rabbits were included in the 22-week-old cohort and six rabbits in the 13-week-old cohort.
