Adiponectin ablation reduces BAT thermogenic activity. BAT from 10-month old WT and Adipoq −/− mice was collected immediately following a 6 h cold (4 °C) exposure. a BAT weight and BAT percentage (compared to body weight). b Expression of thermogenic genes. c BAT immunohistochemical images of UCP-1 and Mitomarker. Brown color represents specific staining for UCP-1 or Mitomarker. Scale bar is 50 μm. n = 6. **P < 0.001, WT v.s Adipoq −/− mice
