Sex‐dependent uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) expression in differentiated fibro/adipogenic progenitors (FAPs). (A) FAPs isolated from skeletal muscle (hindlimbs) of male and female 129S6/SvEvTac (Sv/129) mice were differentiated for 10 days, stained for nuclei (DAPI), and immunostained for UCP1, n = 3 mice per group. Scale bar = 50 μM. (B) UCP1, fatty acid‐binding protein 4 (FABP4), and beta‐actin (ACTB) (loading control) protein expression in FAPs isolated from Sv/129 male and female mice at Day 10 of differentiation. Results are shown as mean and standard error of the mean of relative protein expression levels normalized to ACTB relative levels in arbitrary units (A.U.), n= 5 mice per group. *P < 0.05, unpaired Student's t‐test.
