Expression after 24 h in cultured 3T3-L1 adipocytes with ATRA (1 μM), an RARα-specific agonist BMS753/RARα-LIG (1 μM), an RARγ-specific agonist BMS189961/RARγ-LIG (1 μM), and an RXR ligand RXR-LIG/LG268 (1 μM) calculated with CTRL treatments set as 1. Significance and sem are based on n = 6 parallel treatments. Significant values vs. CTRL are in italics. LIG, ligand. REX, relative expression.
