Subcutaneous adipose tissue (scWAT) was collected from mice exposed to either 10% O2 or maintained under normoxic atmospheric conditions. 129Ev/Sv mice were housed in conventional cages from birth in a temperature- (23°C) and humidity-controlled environment with a 12 h photoperiod and given ad libitum access to standard rodent chow (RM1(E), Special Diet Services, UK) and water. At 7 weeks of age, mice were randomly assigned to remain under normoxic conditions, or transferred to a normobaric hypoxia chamber (10% O2; PFI systems, Milton Keynes, UK). Mice were maintained in hypoxia or normoxia for 28 days, after which they were killed by cervical dislocation. The scWAT was removed from the inguinal region, snap frozen and stored at -80°C until further analysis. The inguinal lymph node was removed from scWAT depots prior to RNA-seq analysis.
