Adenovirus expressing AMPKα2-CA (Ad α2-CA) or β-gal
(Ad β-gal) were injected in ob/ob and control mice
and gene expression was analyzed 48 hours post-injection. Each value
indicates the amount of mRNA with respect to that in 6 hours fasted control
C57Bl6J mice, arbitrarily defined as 1. Fold increase is indicated below
each graph column. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01,
#P < 0.005, ##P < 0.001 vs. control mice and
$P < 0.05, §P < 0.005, §§P < 0.001
vs. ob/ob Ad β-gal-injected mice. L-PK,
L-pyruvate kinase; GK, glucokinase; S14, Spot 14 ; SREBP-1, sterol
regulatory element– binding protein-1; ChREBP, carbohydrate response
element–binding protein; ACC, acetyl CoA-carboxylase; FAS, fatty
acid synthase; SCD-1, stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1; GPAT, glycerol-3-phosphate
acyltransferase.
