Identification of MMP12 protein expression in white adipose tissue from diet induced obese mice. Protein extracts from GWAT and SWAT from 23-wks old mice after 14 wks on HFD or CD, respectively, was analyzed by Western blot and zymography for MMP12. β-actin was used as a loading control in Western blot. (A) Representative image of 4 Western blots (n = 8 mice per condition) are shown. (B) Quantification of total MMP12 protein expression in GWAT and SWAT on CD and HFD. (C) Quantification of active MMP12 protein expression in GWAT and SWAT on CD and HFD. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM.°p = 0.09; * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01.
