Glucose uptake and cytokines levels in white adipose tissue and serum levels of TNF-α and adiponectin in each chimeric mouse.

<p>(A) Rate constant of 2-[³H] DG uptake in epididymal (Epi) and retroperitoneal (Retro) WAT were determined with and without insulin (1.0 U/kg) injection. n = 6 for each group. (B) Expression of TNF-α, MCP-1 and IL-10 in epididymal and retroperitoneal WAT. n = 6 for each group. (C) Serum TNF-α and adiponectin concentrations measured by ELISA. n = 8–10 for each group. *p<0.05 vs. KKAy chimera and WT chimera.
