Table 1. BAT UCP1 and Hypothalamic Expressions of POMC, AgRP and MC3R.

Data are means (n = 5-6 rats/group) ±SE. There are no statistical differences in BAT

Control MTII-On MTII-On/Off
BAT UCP1 (units/BAT) 72.0 ± 8.3 64.4 ± 7.4 69.3 ± 7.9
POMC mRNA (arbitrary units) 0.89 ± 0.02 0.83 ± 0.02 0.84 ± 0.03
AgRP mRNA (arbitrary units) 1.27 ± 0.05 1.26 ± 0.05 1.51 ± 0.35
MC3R mRNA (arbitrary units) 0.68 ± 0.03 0.65 ± 0.02 0.57 ± 0.03

UCP1 protein levels, and hypothalamic expressions of POMC, AgRP and MC3R among all three groups by one-way ANOVA.
