Alteration of white adipose tissue endocrine function in FVB WT and β3-AR null mice provided a control or methionine-restricted diet for 10 wk. Plasma adiponectin (A) and mRNA levels for adiponertin and leptin in inguinal white adipose tissue (B) were measured in tissues harvested after 10 wk on the diets, as described in materials and methods. Response variables were analyzed by ANOVA. a,b,cMeans with letters that differ denote P < 0.05.
