Effect of high-fat diet on hepatic gene expression in SM/J mice

We identified 4,356 genes with expression differences associated with a high-fat diet, with 184 genes exhibiting a sex-by-diet interaction. Dietary fat dysregulated several pathways, such as cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, chemokine signaling, and oxidative phosphorylation.

A 1x50 single read sequencing run was done on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 machine (Illumina Inc.)
