White, brown, and bone marrow adipose tissue behavior in DHEA-induced PCOS mice.

Methods: Thirty-one female C57BL/6J mice were divided into four groups: two were treated with subcutaneous dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) implants and divided into normal and hypercaloric diet (HFD). Two were control and divided into normal and HFD. Presence of insulin resistance, growth, and adipocyte markers expression of white and brown adipose tissues and growth and inflammatory cytokines expression of bone marrow adipose tissue were evaluated.
