Fig. 3From: Vitamin D3/VDR resists diet-induced obesity by modulating UCP3 expression in musclesCalcitriol enhanced relative luciferase activity in a dose dependent manner. UCP3-pro-luc was transfected into C2C12 cells (a), L6 cells (b), and H-EMC-SS cells (c). Relative luciferase activity was analyzed by Dual Luciferase Assay after stimulation with calcitriol. n = 3, compared with vehicle, *: P < 0.05; **: P < 0.01Back to article page
