Gene expression of roundabout receptor 4 (Robo4) and Slit homolog 2 (Slit2) in the gonadal white adipose tissue (gWAT) of normal chow (NC) and high fat (HF) fed wildtype mice. C57Bl/6 mice (N=6–8/group) were fed NC or HF diet (40% kcal from fat) for 8–10 weeks. gWAT was excised and RNA isolated to assess Robo4 and Slit2 gene expression by qPCR. *denotes difference from NC, Data are means ± SEM, p≤0.05
