Experiments and genes with a * indicate qPCR analysis of ARC and Tac2 pools. Experiments without * were only analyzed in ARC tissue. For all experiments except oil vs E2B (+), data were analyzed with using a two-way ANOVA followed by post-hoc Newman-Keuls. For oil vs. E2B experiment, data were analyzed with a Student’s t-test Corresponding graphs of each gene expression change is noted in the “Fig.” row. Arrows indicate the direction of gene expression ( = upregulated and = downregulated compared to control (oil, fed, LFD, ad lib). For example, in experiment #1 (fed vs. fasted) Kiss1 in the ARC is increased by fasting in oil-treated animals (Fig. 2A) and decreased by E2B in both fed ans fasted animals (Fig. 2A).
