Figure 4. Relative expression of some genes expressed in mice adipose tissue after 8 weeks of treatment. Bars represent the mean of triplicates ± SE (n = 8). A=Lep, B=Res, C=Adpn, D=Tnf-α, E=Fabp4, F=Lpl, G=Fasn. The amplification of 18s was used as control. Different letters indicate statistical differences among groups at p<0.05. RD=regular diet; HF=High fat diet; Ctrl=control diet; AMA= amaranth protein isolate; SOY=soy protein isolates
