Pathological analysis of adipose tissues from wild-type and Pin1^−/− mice.

<p>Paraffin-embedded sections of inguinal fat tissue from wild-type (A) and Pin1^−/− (B) mice were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. The size of cells was analyzed quantitatively with Image J analysis soft. The average sizes of the adipose cells of wild and Pin1^−/− mice were 6129.6±136.0 µm² and 3516.6±87.0 µm² (±SEM) respectively (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0031823#pone-0031823-g003" target="_blank">Figure 3C</a>). Student t-test p<0.001.
