Effects of aerobic exercise on the BMP4 signaling pathway in PVAT of rats fed with a high-fat diet. Relative mRNA levels of BMP4 (A), p38 (B), ATF2 (C), PGC1β (D), Smad1 (E), Smad5 (F), and Smad8 (G) in PVAT of rats (n = 6). The data are presented as mean ± SEM. The results are significant compared to the control group (*p < 0.05) and the HFD group (#p < 0.05).
