Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) mRNA level with respect to the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (Gapd) level in the interscapular brown adipose tissues in Experiments 1 and 2 (A, B, respectively). Values are given as the mean ± SE [A n = 34 (10 in the E2 (+) group and 9 in the E2 (−) group after 5°C exposure, and 7 in the E2 (+) group and 8 in the E2 (−) group after 25°C exposure; B n = 34 (9 in the P group and 10 in the D1 group after 5°C exposure, and 7 in the P group and 8 in the D1 group after 25°C exposure]. *Significant difference between the E2 (+) and E2 (−) groups or between the P and D1 groups, P < 0.05. #Significant difference between the P and E2 (+) groups after the 5°C exposure, P < 0.05. §Significant difference between the 5 and 25°C exposure in the P group, P < 0.05
