  1. For both microarray and real-time RT-PCR analyses, results are expressed as Fat to Lean and G+ to G- ratios of the expression gene.
  2. NS = non-significant; ND = not determined. Statistical significance is indicated as follows: †p value < 0.1, *p value < 0.05, **p value < 0.01.
  3. § Only genes identified as differentially expressed in at least one model are presented in the Table.
