Adipocyte-specific deletion of NRDC in Adipo-KO mice. (A) Relative mRNA levels of NRDC in the indicated tissues from Nrdcfl/fl and Adipo-KO mice. Results were standardized with actb (β-actin) mRNA levels. N = 5/genotype; postnatal day (P) 90. Data are shown as the mean + standard error (SEM), *p < 0.05. (B) NRDC protein levels were analyzed by the immunoblotting of BAT extracts from Nrdcfl/fl and Adipo-KO mice. N = 3: Nrdcfl/fl, n = 4: Adipo-KO; P90. (C) Graph showing the body weight of Nrdcfl/fl and Adipo-KO mice (M: male, F: female) from 4 to 12 weeks old. N = 32: Nrdcfl/fl males, n = 34: Nrdcfl/fl females, n = 29: Adipo-KO males, and n = 32: Adipo-KO females.
