Treatment with PPARα Agonist Clofibrate Inhibits the Transcription and Activation of SREBPs and Reduces Triglyceride and Cholesterol Levels in Liver of Broiler Chickens

Figure 5

mRNA and protein level relative to control of LXRα in the liver of broiler chickens fed diets without (control) or with 0.1% clofibrate for 4 weeks. (a) Bars represent means ± SEM (/group) and are expressed mRNA level relative to the control group. (b) Representative immunoblot specific to nuclear LXRα and β-actin as internal control is shown for one pool per group; immunoblots for the other pools revealed similar results. Values are means ± SEM, pools/group with each pool representing 3 animals.
