Tcf7l2 negatively regulates 3T3-L1 differentiation. (a-b) HFD feeding decreased Tcf7l2 and Tcf7l1 but not Tcf7 mRNA levels. (c) Illustration of the differentiation procedure with virus infection. (d) Detection of exogenous expression of TCF7L2 and TCF7L2DN in 3T3-L1 cells after virus infections for 48 h by western blotting with the HA-tag antibody. (e-f) Oil red O staining and semi-quantitative assessment of Oil red O content. (g) Triglyceride levels in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells with indicated virus infection. (h) Detection of genes that encode five adipogenic differentiation markers in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells infected with the correspondent adenovirus. N> or =3 for panels (a), (b) and (e–h). *P<0.05; **P<0.01; ***P<0.001. TCFDN, Ad-TCF7L2DN; miR-17, miR-17-5p
