Mediators of GC action in adipose tissue of Pomc−/− mice and effects of CORT treatment on GC target genes. (A) Representative northern blot showing levels of 11β-HSD1 mRNA and 18S RNA in epididymal adipose tissue of Pomc−/− (−/−) and wild-type (+/+) mice, either untreated or treated for 10 days with corticosterone (cort). (B–E) Quantitation of adipose tissue-specific 11β-HSD1 (B), GR (C), LPL (D) and PEPCK (E) mRNA levels in experimental mice. Epi, epididymal fat; ing, inguinal fat; retro, retroperitoneal fat. Data are presented as percentage of the value in untreated wild-type mice (100%) and are the means±s.e.m.; n=5 per group. Significance *P<0·05, **P<0·01 and ***P<0·001.
