Figure 3 Expression of adipogenic and lipolytic genes in the adipose tissue of rats.
Rats were exposed to maternal low protein diet during gestation and lactation, and gene expression of carnitine palmitoylacyltransferase 1, acetyl-CoA carboxylase and fatty acid synthase in adipose tissue was analyzed by quantitative reverse transcription PCR. Data are shown as mean ± standard error means and analyzed by two-way ANOVA with the mother’s diet (normal protein; low protein) and age (30 d, 90 d) as variable factors. Bonferroni’s post hoc test was used. Differences between diet groups are indicated by an asterisks; differences between ages are indicated by bars. aP < 0.05, bP < 0.01. NP: Normal protein; LP: Low protein; FAS: Fatty acid synthase; CPT1-b: Carnitine palmitoylacyltransferase 1b; ACC: Acetyl-CoA carboxylase.
