Figure 4. FTO upregulation is dependent on JAK2/STAT3 activity.

Figure 4

Panels A to D show that leptin upregulates gene and protein expression of JAK2 (A,B), gene expression of STAT3 (C) and protein levels of p-STAT3 (D). Panels E to H show that leptin-induced upregulation of FTO is prevented by the JAK inhibitor AG490 (E,F) and the STAT3 inhibitor S31ā€“201 (S31, G,H). Data are presented as mean+SEM, Nā€Š=ā€Š8 *P<0.05 from control group not treated with leptin.
