Fig. 6: LEPR mRNA and protein expression in subcutaneous AT from body donors.
From: Identification of distinct transcriptome signatures of human adipose tissue from fifteen depots
a LEPR mRNA expression is significantly lower in heel AT compared with other subcutaneous AT locations. Ob-Rfl—LEPR full length, detecting only the long form of the receptor; Ob-R—all forms of the leptin receptor are detected. ****/*p < 0.0001/0.05. b Protein expression: LEPR is expressed in subcutaneous AT but not detectable in heel AT. Multiple bands occur due to different isoforms of the receptor.
