Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
rosiglitazone rosiglitazone treatment markebly increases glycerol kinase mRNA expression in both the mesenteric and epididymal adipose tissues (1085.9% and 523.8% of the abundance in Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka rats, respectively). The magnitude of glycerol kinase induced by rosiglitazone is significantly greater in the mesenteric fat than in the epididymal fat. Rattus norvegicus

adipose glycerol kinase mRNA tends to increase by 2.5fold in the mesenteric fat from Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty rats compared to Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka rats. A small increase in glycerol kinase mRNA expression is detected in the epididymal fat from Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty rats compared with Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka rats (124.5%). Rosiglitazone treatment markebly increases glycerol kinase mRNA expression in both the mesenteric and epididymal adipose tissues (1085.9% and 523.8% of the abundance in Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka rats, respectively). The magnitude of glycerol kinase induced by rosiglitazone is significantly greater in the mesenteric fat than in the epididymal fat. Rattus norvegicus
