Figure 9. The expression of the MHC class II genes, receptors involved in (co)stimulation of T cells and immune-associated cluster differentiation (CD) by human primary pre-adipocytes and adipocytes.

Panel A shows the expression of MHC class II genes and some genes involved in co-stimulation of T cells in human pre-adipocytes (red bars) and adipocytes (blue bars). Gene expression was given as ²log and shown on the y-axis. Illumina results were obtained from two independent experiments. Each experiment was done in duplicate, thus, each sample was measured four times. Panel B shows CD gene expression by human adipocytes, using Illumina BeadArray. Illumina gene profiling analysis shows the expression of CD genes in human pre-adipocytes (red bars) and adipocytes (blue bars). Gene expression was expressed as ²log and shown on the y-axis.
