Fgf8b reprograms proliferating preadipocytes. (A) White adipocytes were treated with Ffgf8b (125 ng/ml) for 48 hours either during proliferation, induction, early or late differentiation and compared to treatment during the entire differentiation. Black squares indicate days of Fgf8b treatment. Treatment during the entire differentiation period led to strongest Ucp1 induction. During proliferation and early differentiation cells were most susceptible for Fgf8b treatment, while inclusion of the induction phase into the treatment abrogated its effect. Bars are mean values ± SD, n = 5. (B) Time course of indicated mRNA expression following a 48 hours Fgf8b treatment pulse on proliferating preadipocytes. Points are mean values ± SD, n = 3.
