  1. Epididymal adipose tissue was digested by collagenase and then separated into mature adipocytes and stromal vascular fraction. Expression levels of target genes of each fraction were measured by real time PCR and normalized by the internal housekeeping gene 18S rRNA. The results, mean ± SEM of 6-8 mice/group, are expressed as fold induction over control group. Means in a row without a common letter differ, P < 0.05 (ANOVA followed by LSD test).
