Dietary and hormonal effects on morphologies of abdominal WAT and BAT using immunofluorescence of CAV1-FITC.
Scale bar represents 100 µM and 50 µM, respectively. Adipocyte area or lipid area between control and hormone treated groups were calculated by Student’s t-test, where, *p<0.05 and **p<0.01. The significance of the effects of sex, diet and hormonal treatments was tested using multivariate ANOVA (M-ANOVA), where p<0.05.
