Functional verification of the role of COX2 in brown adipocytes. (a1) Oil red O staining of lipid droplets in brown adipocytes (scale bar = 200 μm) and (a2) the AOD levels of each group. b The glycerol contents of brown adipocytes after treatment with ISO and/or NS. c Effects of these compounds on the levels of COX2 and other components of the VEGF signaling pathway (Adrβ, VEGFa, Flk1, PLCγ, COX2, UCP1 and PGC-1α) in brown adipocytes. *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01 represent statistical significance
