Adipose Tissue Gene Expression – Gene markers of cellular differentiation (peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ; PPARγ and CCAAT enhancer‐binding protein α; C/EBPα), fatty acid uptake and transport (fatty acid binding protein 4; FABP4 and fatty acid transport protein 4; FATP4) and genes encoding proteins secreted from adipose tissue (adiponectin; adipoQ). (A–J) All of the adipose gene markers were significantly reduced in FKOγ compared to CON mice. (A) PPAR, (C) CEBP and (G) FATP4 were significantly reduced in inguinal but not visceral adipose tissue from LipX vs Sham CON mice. LipX did not result in any significant changes in FKOγ mice. Insets within figure include P values for significance of model, main effects of group (CON vs FKO) and surgery (LipX and Sham) and interactions when applicable
