Increased DUSP5 mRNA expression correlates to increased obesity-mediated TNFα inflammation. RNA was isolated from white adipose tissue (WAT) and (A) DUSP5 and (B) TNFα mRNA expression assessed via qPCR. As the degree of obesity increased from stage I (12 wk HFD) to stage II (18 wk HFD), (C) TNFα mRNA expression increased; this correlated with increased DUSP5 message. Student’s t-test with Welch’s correction and Pearson Correlation were used to determine significance p < 0.05.
