Liver Proteomics of the Hybrid Mouse Diversity Panel

Hepatosteatosis underlies several diseases including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and liver disease. Unfortunately, our understanding of the contributing pathways that initiate and advance hepatosteatosis to subsequent complications is still poorly understood. Here, we take advantage of recent developments in “omics” technologies to perform high resolution proteomics (>5000 proteins) and quantitative lipidomics (>300 lipids) on livers from 107 genetically diverse inbred mouse strains from the hybrid mouse diversity panel. Integration of these data allowed us to define novel regulators of lipid metabolism in the liver.
