Figure 2

Metabolic consequences of adipose tissue-specific Bscl2 deletion in female mice. Five hour fasted blood glucose levels (A) and glucose tolerance test (B) in B2(fl/fl), Ad-B2(+/−) and Ad-B2(−/−) mice at ten weeks of age (n = 4). (C) BAT weight normalised to body weight in sixteen week old mice (n = 3–4). mRNA levels of white and brown markers in (D) BAT (n = 3–4) and (E) GWAT (n = 4) in sixteen week old mice. All data are presented as the mean ± SEM, *p < 0.05 vs B2(fl/fl), #p < 0.05 vs Ad-B2(+/−).
