Hypoxia Alters the Expression of Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 and Induces Developmental Remodeling of Human Preadipocytes

Figure 3

Differentiation-dependent expression density of membrane DPP4 of human preadipocytes and adipocytes cultured in vitro under different environmental conditions. Relative expression density of DPP4 in human preadipocytes in the course of differentiation to mature adipocytes cultured in normoxia (a) and hypoxia (b). Data are presented as mean values ± SE. Numbers denote the number of cells imaged ( versus preadipocytes on day 0; one-way ANOVA on ranks). On day 0, cells were already confluent.
