Western blot analyses were performed as described previously33 (link). Briefly, cells were lysed using RIPA buffer (Invitrogen) containing SIGMAFAST Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Sigma) and PhoSTOP phosphatase inhibitors (Roche). Adipose tissue lysates were prepared using PRO-PREP Protein Extraction Solution (iNtRON Biotechnology). Primary antibodies used for western blot analyses were described in Supplementary Tables S3. NIH ImageJ software was used for the quantification. Full-length immunoblot membrane images are attached in Supplementary Information.
