Figure 3 Effects of intermittent fasting on fat in mice. (A) Standardized fat/body weight ratios for different parts of fat, including inguinal white adipose tissue (Ing-WAT), epididymal white adipose tissue (Epi-WAT), and interscapular brown adipose tissue (Int-BAT) (n=10). (B) Ucp1 messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression in Ing-WAT (n=3). (C) Representative hematoxylin and eosin stained sections. Scale bar: 20 μm. (D) Representative Ucp1 immunohistochemically stained section. Scale bar: 20 μm. Data were presented as mean±SD. Differences between groups were statistically analyzed using 1-way analysis of variance. * P<0.05, ** P<0.01, *** P<0.001.
