Measurement of second messengers involved in Glut4 translocation in soleus muscle and epididymal adipose tissue. (a) Representative western blot of pAMPK, AMPK, pAKT, and AKT expression in the soleus muscle of the treated groups. (b) Densitometry analysis of the pAMPK/GAPDH ratios in SM. (c) Densitometry analysis of the AMPK/GAPDH ratios in SM. (d) Densitometry analysis of the pAKT/GAPDH ratios in SM. (e) Densitometry analysis of the AKT/GAPDH ratios in SM. (f) Representative western blot of pAMPK, AMPK, pAKT, and AKT expression in epididymal adipose tissue from the treated groups. (g) Densitometry analysis of the pAMPK/GAPDH ratios in EAT. (h) Densitometry analysis of the AMPK/GAPDH ratios in EAT. (i) Densitometry analysis of the pAKT/GAPDH ratios in EAT. (j) Densitometry analysis of the AKT/GAPDH ratios in EAT. The error bars represent the standard error mean of measurements for n = 3.
