Figure 4.

Expression of UCP2 and UCP3 in skeletal muscle of KsJ, B6, and A/J mice. After 2 weeks of either a low fat or a high fat diet, total cellular RNA was prepared from gastrocnemius and soleus muscle and examined for the expression of UCP2, UCP3, and cyclophilin by Northern blot hybridization. (A) Representative Northern blots. (B) Average of results for UCP2 from four mice of each strain. (C) Average of results for UCP3 from four mice of each strain. There were no statistically significant differences among any of the values by ANOVA or paired t tests.
