Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 Deficiency Attenuates Experimental Colitis-Induced Adipose Tissue Lipolysis

Figure 1

IBD in patients and experimental colitis increase FGF21 expression. (a) Serum levels of FGF21 in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. C57BL/6J mice were treated with 2.5% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) for 7 days as described in the Materials and Methods. (b) Serum FGF21 protein levels. (c) mRNA levels of FGF21 in the liver and eWAT in WT mice.
