Figure 1. Hypothalamic CTRP13 expression increased in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD).

Food was removed for 2 h before hypothalami were harvested from mice fed an HFD (n = 5) or from mice fed a standard chow diet (n = 4). mRNA levels were measured using quantitative real-time PCR. Data are means ± SEM,*P<0.05.
