Figure 3
LEP (a) and PAI-1 (b) mRNA abundance in AAT pads from CD and FRD rats without or with PIO treatment. Data (expressed in arbitrary units: AU) were normalized to the levels of ACTB, and then presented as relative to values obtained in fat pads from CD rats. Means ± SEM (n = 5/6 pads per group). *P < 0.05 versus CD; + P < 0.05 versus FRD.
