Figure 2. Hepatic expression of adipophilin, voltage dependent anion channel (VDAC) and cytochrome oxidase subunit II (COXII).

Figure 2

Protein expression in livers of A) 7 days old and B) 12 days old TK2+/+ and TK2−/− mice detected with Western blot. Protein samples are from three individuals of each genotype and age. Bio-RAD Quantity one software was used to determine the intensity of the bands and statistical comparisons (two-tailed unpaired Student’s t-test) between TK2+/+ and TK2−/− were done. VDAC was used to normalize the data. Only 12 days old TK2−/− mice exhibit 150% higher expression of adipophilin compared to TK2+/+ mice (p≤0.05), no other difference was detected.
