Effect of APN on the relative expression of some metabolic genes. (a) Relative expression of HMG-COA reductase; (b) relative expression of glucokinase; (c) relative expression of leptin; (d) relative expression of CPT-1; (e) relative expression of PEPCK. β-Actin and GAPDH were used as the reference gene to calculate the relative expression of the genes. Bars with are significantly () different from control while bars with are significantly different () from HFHF-fed group.
