Thermoneutral housing reduces inguinal fat remodeling and liver lipid accumulation. Male chow-fed animals were housed at thermoneutrality (TNH, 30°C) for 4 weeks. A: Transcript levels of Δ9 desaturase isoforms (Scd1, 2, and 3) and Δ6 desaturase (D6d) in inguinal WAT (n = 5–7/group). B: Indices of desaturation in the TG fraction of inguinal WAT and plasma (n = 5–7/group). C: Inguinal WAT lipogenic gene expression in WT and UCP1−/− mice (n = 5–7/group). D: White fat depot weights after thermoneutral housing. E: Atgl gene expression from inguinal fat (n = 5–7/group). F: Concentration of circulating nonesterified FAs in WT and UCP1−/− mice (n = 3–4/group). G: Liver TG levels as measured by a colorimetric biochemical assay (n = 5–7/group). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 vs. WT.
