Basal gene expression of genes studied within each fat depot. Basal relative expression of genes studied (leptin (LEP) and leptin receptor (LEPR)) within subcutaneous (S) and visceral (V) adipose tissue (AT) are compared. mRNA levels were measured with the Real-Time PCR and normalized to PPIA using the ΔΔCt method of relative quantization. Data are reported as means ± SEM (Standard Error of the Mean). The results are presented as percent of LEPR relative expression in both depots (LEPR value = 1). Asterisk (*) represents significant differences (Wilcoxon non parametric paired test)
