 mRNA and protein expression of PLA2 in AbdSc adipose tissue and omental adipose tissue from lean (n = 9), overweight (n = 10) and obese (n = 5) non-diabetic individuals. (a) PLA2G7 mRNA expression. (b) Lp-PLA2 protein levels. (c) PLA2G4 mRNA expression. (d) cPLA2 protein levels. (e) PLA2G6 mRNA expression. (f) iPLA2 protein levels. All qPCR and western blot results were standardised to lean AbdSc adipose tissue. Statistical analysis was performed using paired t test. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001 for AbdSc vs omental adipose tissue; ††p < 0.01 and †††p < 0.001 vs lean omental adipose tissue; and ‡p < 0.05 and ‡‡‡p < 0.05 vs lean AbdSc adipose tissue. Ob, obese; Om, omental adipose tissue; Ow, overweight; Sc, subcutaneous
