In rWAT, two-way ANOVA revealed statistically significant increase in p22 (p < 0.001), Nox2 (p < 0.001) and Nox4 (p < 0.01) expression due to obesity but administration of QCT did not significantly affect the expression of these genes (Table 3). Here, CYBB is linked to obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency.
