Fig. 1: SPRY1 expression is upregulated upon weight loss (WL) in human ASCs.

a Microarray profiling of freshly isolated ASCs was carried out as already described in Ejaz et al. 201627. Tissue samples were obtained from aged-matched Normal weight donors (NWD; n = 3), Obese donors (OD; n = 3) and donors subjected to a weight loss intervention (Weight loss donors: WLD; n = 4). b Sprouty1 expression relative to β-actin was analysed by RT-qPCR in early passage ASCs derived from WLDs (n = 4), NWDs (n = 3) and ODs (n = 3) to verify the Microarray
