Figure 1

Differential alterations of endocannabinoid, oleoylethanolamide and palmitoylethanolamide levels in the subcutaneous adipose tissue of normoweight, obese and type 2 diabetes obese subjects. Endocannabinoid levels (in pmol/g tissue, means ± SE) were measured in the subcutaneous adipose tissue in individuals with obesity and diabetes (N = 10), only obesity (N = 11), and normal weight controls (N = 8). AEA = anandamide (arachidonoylethanolamide); 2-AG = 2-arachidonoylglycerol; OEA = oleoylethanolamide; PEA = palmitoylethanolamide. ANOVA and LSD (Kruskal-Wallis for 2-AG) *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001 vs. Control and Obese.
