(A) Adipocyte size after 13 weeks of dietary intervention. (B) Plasma triglycerides (TG). (C) Plasma total cholesterol levels. (D) plasma adiponectin levels are increased in lean macrophage CD40 deficient mice but are not different in obese mice. (E) Plasma leptin levels. (F) mRNA expression of adiponectin, leptin, PPARγ and insulin receptor (IR) in EpAT, (n = 6–9 mice/group). Data is presented as mean ± SEM. *p<0.05, as determined by non-parametric Mann Whitney test.
