Figure Lengend Snippet: Adipose-specific Hsp47 knockout mitigates HFD-associated systemic and renal stress markers. Serum analytes: glucose, HDL-C (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol), inorganic phosphate (IP), calcium (Ca), and albumin; Urine analytes: urea nitrogen (U-UN), creatinine (U-CRE), uric acid (U-UA), potassium (U-K), and inorganic phosphate (U-IP). Data are presented as mean ± SD. Group comparisons were assessed by two-tailed t-tests. Variance equality was evaluated using the Fligner–Killeen test; when group variances were not significantly different ( P > 0.05), Student’s t-test was applied, otherwise Welch’s t-test was used. *, **, *** indicate P < 0.05, 0.01, 0.001, respectively; n.s., not significant. Exact P values are provided in Supplementary Table .

Article Snippet: Adipose tissue-specific Hsp47 conditional-knockout (aKO) mice were generated by crossing Hsp47 floxed mice and Adipoq-Cre (adipose tissue-specific promoter) transgenic animals (B6;FVB-Tg( Adipoq -Cre)1Evdr/J, 010803, The Jackson Laboratory) .

Techniques: Knock-Out, Two Tailed Test
