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 | - |
