From: Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) expression does not affect glucose homeostasis and insulin secretion: studies in human CETP transgenic mice

Fig. 4

CETP expression does not affect glucose transporters gene expression in adipose tissues. Scl2a1 (encoding GLUT1) and Scl2a1 (encoding GLUT4) mRNA expression were determined in visceral (a), subcutaneous (b) and brown (c) adipose tissue depots of 5 months old non-transgenic (NTg) and CETP female mice. Gene expression was quantified by real-time RT-PCR using the ΔΔCT method normalized to β-actin and then expressed relative to the control (NTg) group. Mean ± SE (n = 7–12 per group). Student’s t test: non-significant
