Sex-Dependent Expression of Caveolin 1 in Response to Sex Steroid Hormones Is Closely Associated with Development of Obesity in Rats
Figure 8
Effect of Cav1 knockdown (KD) on mRNA expression levels of major metabolic and sex hormone receptors in 3T3-L1 and HIB1B adipocytes (A), fat accumulation (B), protein expression levels of major metabolic and sex hormone receptors (C), triglyceride content (D), as well as protein expression levels of estrogen receptors, androgen receptor, and aromatase before and after sex hormone treatments (E).
Scale bar represents 50 µM and 25 µM, respectively. Statistical significance between different groups was calculated by Student’s t-test, where *p<0.05 and **p<0.01.
