Figure 2

Leptin gene expression in adipocytes without co-culture (white bar), co-cultured with macrophages (gray bar), and co-cultured with macrophages in the presence of 1 ng/ml of LPS. Leptin gene expression was evaluated by real-time PCR. The data are expressed as fold changes of baseline data (expression at 0 h). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001.
