ATGL-Deficient Mice Survive upon Cold Acclimation and Exhibit Normal Brown Adipocyte Recruitment
(A and B) Time course (A) and mean (B) core body temperature (CBT) of ad libitum-fed AKO/cTg mice during cold acclimation at 5°C for 3 weeks using implantable telemetry transmitters (n = 5).
(C) UCP-1 immunoblot of BAT homogenates.
(D) Total protein content from whole BAT depots (n = 3–5).
(E) Calculated total UCP-1 protein amount per BAT of mice housed at 22°C (n = 3) or 5°C for 3 weeks (n = 5).
Analyses were performed in ad libitum-fed male AKO/cTg mice aged 10–12 weeks. Data are presented as means ± SD. Statistical significance was evaluated by unpaired two-tailed Student’s t test. ∗p < 0.05 and ∗∗∗p < 0.001. See also Figure S6.
