Updating "Data on changes in lipid profiles during the differentiation and maturation of human subcutaneous white adipocytes analyzed using chromatographic and bioinformatic tools" with data on the changes in protein profiles.

Previously, we reported changes in the lipid profile of cultured human subcutaneous white preadipocytes during their differentiation and maturation. Here, using the same cells, we report changes in the protein profiles during differentiation and maturation as multi-omics data. The three cell lines of Caucasian-derived subcutaneous preadipocytes were divided into five stages: stage-1, subcutaneous preadipocytes; stage-2, following induction of differentiation into adipocytes; stages-3 to -5, from the initiation of lipid droplet formation to mature subcutaneous adipocytes (depending on the lipid droplet amount and formation). In each stage, proteins were extracted from the cells, proteolytically cleaved, and analyzed using untargeted liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. The proteins were then identified and statistically analyzed. A total of 1,871 proteins were identified with high confidence, of which, 381 were statistically significant (-value < 0.05) between any two stages. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis revealed that the proteins significantly altered during the differentiation and maturation of preadipocytes were enriched in various pathways, including "ribosome," "Coronavirus disease-COVID-19," and "extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction" (FDR < 0.05).
