Abstract (original English)
3T3-L1 is a model cell line which can be differentiated from preadipocytes into mature adipocytes. Here, we present a protocol for changing gene expression in 3T3-L1 (pre)adipocytes using small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown. We describe steps to perform the knockdown of a certain gene prior to differentiation (day 4) to analyze the impact on adipogenesis. We then detail procedures for knockdown on day 8 of differentiation to study the role of a certain gene in mature adipocyte function. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Kaczmarek et al. 1 .
