Effects of Adiponectin on Glucose Metabolism in the Hepatopancreas of Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)

Figure 6

Effects of adiponectin on glucose metabolism-related gene expression in the hepatopancreas of grass carp. Fish were intraperitoneally injected with 0, 5, 50, and 500 ng/g BW adiponectin A or adiponectin B. The mRNA levels of glucose metabolism-related genes in the hepatopancreas were quantified at 1 h post injection by RT-qPCR and normalized against 18S transcripts. Results are shown as the fold of corresponding control and expressed as (). Different lowercase letters in each genes represent statistically significant differences ().
