#' Mouse metabolism microarray data
#'
#' The purpose of the multi-tissue mouse metabolism transcriptomic data is to 
#' study how the gene expression changes with respect to the 
#' energy deficiency using mouse models. 
#' Very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) 
#' deficiency was found to be associated with
#' energy metabolism disorder in children.
#' Two genotypes of the mouse model - wild type (VLCAD +/+) and 
#' VLCAD-deficient (VLCAD -/-) -
#' were studied for three types of tissues (brown fat, liver, heart) 
#' with 3 to 4 mice in each genotype group.
#' The sample size information is available in the table below.
#' A total of 6,883 genes are available in this example dataset.
