Sex differences in NGF and BDNF expression in gWAT of weanling mice and during β3-adrenergic receptor activation. a qPCR analysis of NGF and BDNF expression in gWAT of weanling mice (3 weeks of age), 6-week-old mice treated with CL for 3 days (6W-CL), and untreated control mice (6W). b qPCR analysis of NGF and BDNF expression in SVC and adipocytes obtained from gWAT of female mice treated with CL for 3 days and untreated controls. c qPCR analysis of NGF and BDNF expression in differentiated adipocyte from PDGFRα progenitors obtained from gWAT of mice. Primary cultured adipocytes were treated with 17β-estradiol (10 nM) or vehicle in the presence or absence of 10 μM isoproterenol for 1 day (mean ± SEM; n = 4, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01)
