The effects of chronic stress on the levels of DPP4 activities and targeted molecule proteins or genes in the nonstressed and stressed mice. A, The mouse/rat immobilized stress model. B and C, The levels of plasma and muscle DPP4 levels. D and E, ELISA data show the levels of plasma GLP‐1 and adiponectin levels. F, Quantitative real‐time PCR revealed that chronic stress reduced the adiponectin expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue. Values are mean±SE (n=5–7). *P<0.01 vs corresponding controls; NS, not significant by ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc tests. ANOVA indicates analysis of variance; APN adiponectin; DPP4, dipeptidyl peptidase‐4; GAPDH, glyceraldehyde‐3‐phosphate‐dehydrogenase; GLP‐1, glucagon‐like peptide‐1; PCR, polymerase chain reaction.
