Determinants of leptin gene expression in fat depots of lean mice

The relationship of leptin gene expression to adipocyte volume was investigated in lean 10-wk-old male C57BL/6J mice. mRNA levels for leptin, insulin receptor, glucocorticoid receptor, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in inguinal, epididymal, and retroperitoneal adipose tissues were quantified and re...

Zusammenfassung:	The relationship of leptin gene expression to adipocyte volume was investigated in lean 10-wk-old male C57BL/6J mice. mRNA levels for leptin, insulin receptor, glucocorticoid receptor, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in inguinal, epididymal, and retroperitoneal adipose tissues were quantified and related to adipocyte volume.
