Figure 6.

Effects of adrenalectomy (ADREC) and adrenalectomy with dexamethasone treatment (A-DEXA; 0.2 mg/100 g, twice per day) on gene expression of the adiponectin receptors adipoR1 and adipoR2 gene in (A) muscle and (B) liver. Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM. Values were normalized to HPRT with n = 5-9 per group. A one-way ANOVA followed by a Tukey post-hoc test was used to determine significant differences between groups (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.005, effect due to surgery). S-ADREC, sham adrenalectomy.
