From: Global gene expression profiling of brown to white adipose tissue transformation in sheep reveals novel transcriptional components linked to adipose remodeling

Figure 5

Expression of selected metabolic enzymes related to fatty acid metabolism. Total RNA was isolated from perirenal adipose tissue and used for RT-qPCR analysis. Relative expression was measured for: (A) carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1b (CPT1B) and hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase subunit α (HADHA); (B) acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACACA) and fatty acid synthase (FASN); (C) diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) and DGAT2. The mRNA expression levels were normalized to expression of β-actin (ACTB). Data are mean + SEM (brown, n = 9; transition, n = 20; white, n = 15); *, p < 0.05.
