Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset

The lncRNA, miRNA and mRNA expression profiles of HASCs prior to and following adipocyte differentiation were retrieved from the public GEO database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/) under accession nos. {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GSE57593","term_id":"57593"}}GSE57593, {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GSE25715","term_id":"25715"}}GSE25715 and {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GSE61302","term_id":"61302"}}GSE61302 (10), respectively. The {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GSE57593","term_id":"57593"}}GSE57593 microarray dataset (platform: {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GPL18109","term_id":"18109"}}GPL18109, Agilent-038314 CBC Homo sapiens lncRNA + mRNA microarray V2.0) included samples from four undifferentiated HASCs and six differentiated adipocyte cells, which were induced following adipogenic medium culture for 3 and 6 days, with three replicates of each. The {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GSE25715","term_id":"25715"}}GSE25715 non-coding RNA sequencing dataset (platform: {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GPL9442","term_id":"9442"}}GPL9442, AB SOLiD System 3.0, Homo sapiens), included samples from four undifferentiated HASCs [two with adapter set A (from the 5′ to the 3′ end) and two with adapter set B (from the 3′ to the 5′ end)] and eight adipocyte differentiated cells that were induced using adipogenic medium for 3 and 8 days, with two replicates of each and using adapter sets A and B. The {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GSE61302","term_id":"61302"}}GSE61302 microarray dataset (platform: {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GPL570","term_id":"570"}}GPL570, Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array) included samples from five undifferentiated HASCs and 10 differentiated adipocyte cells which were induced with adipogenic medium for 7 days (four replicates) and 21 days (six replicates).
