LKU4 administration induces browning of iWAT in mice fed a HFD. (A,B) The expression of browning genes in iWAT was determined by RT-qPCR (A) and immunoblotting (Cropped blots were used). (BD) Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number and citrate synthase (CS) activity (C) and representative images of VDAC2 and UCP1 staining (D) in iWAT of HFD and HFD-LKU4 mice. (E) Rectal temperatures were measured in each group of mice at week 12 (n = 8–10). HFD vs HFD-LKU4; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.005.
