Endocrine and Metabolic Signaling in Retroperitoneal White Adipose Tissue Remodeling during Cold Acclimation

Figure 3

Changes in GAPDH (a), PDH (b), ACADM (c), ACC (d), subunit IV of cytochrome 𝑐  oxidase (COX IV) (e), and ATP synthase (f) protein levels in rat retroperitoneal depot of white fat tissue after different time periods of cold exposure. Protein content is expressed relative to the control maintained at room temperature, which was standardized as 100%. The results of the representative example from three observations are shown. Data were quantified as described in Section 2. The values represent the mean ± S.E.M. *Compared to control, ^∗𝑃<0.05, ^∗∗𝑃<0.01, and ^∗∗∗𝑃<0.001.
