Cells & Tissues Derived
RNA
High quality RNA is available from cultured adipocytes, preadipocytes, whole adipose tissue and adipocyte ("floaters"). The RNA is from healthy or type II diabetic donors. Donor information including age, sex, and body mass index will be included.
Total Cell Extracts
Total protein extracts have been prepared from cultured subcutaneous and omental preadipocytes and adipocytes. These protein extracts are suitable for Western blotting, ELISA assays or immunoprecipitation.

Flash Frozen Floaters
Primary adipocytes or floaters are isolated from adipose tissue during the initial processing of tissue. These floaters have been flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and can be used for cell extract applications. Please note that the cells lyse upon freezing and can not be cultured.

Conditioned Media
Conditioned media from cultured subcutaneous and omental preadipocytes and adipocytes are available in 10 ml aliquots. The cells are incubated with serum and phenol red free basal medium for 24 hours. Supernatants are collected and flash frozen. These preparations are suitable for a variety of assays.
