Fig. 2: Expression of proteins essential for insulin signalling is lower in BMAT than in WAT.
From: Bone marrow adipose tissue is a unique adipose subtype with distinct roles in glucose homeostasis
Total protein was isolated from gWAT, proximal tibial RM (pTib RM) and tibial dBMAT of four rats, as described in the ‘Methods’. a Expression of the indicated proteins was then determined by immunoblotting, with ERK1/2 used as a loading control. b Quantification of protein expression from (a). For each sample, expression of the indicated protein was normalised to ERK1/2 as a loading control. Data are presented relative to expression levels in gWAT as mean ± SEM of four rats. Significant differences between gWAT and pTib RM or dBMAT were determined by two-way ANOVA and are indicated by *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 or ***P < 0.001. Source data and full scans of immunoblots are provided as a Source Data file.
