Long-term effects of DHT treatment on BAT gene expression in female mice. Ucp1, Bmp8b, and Fgf1 mRNA expression in BAT of female mice treated with a DHT or placebo pellet for 90 days. Results were normalized to 18S ribosomal RNA (Rn18s) and beta-2 microglobulin (B2m) with data from placebo mice defined as ‘1’. Values are averages ± SEM; n = 6; *p < 0.05 vs. placebo (Mann–Whitney U test).
