Erchen Decoction Ameliorates Lipid Metabolism by the Regulation of the Protein CAV-1 and the Receptors VLDLR, LDLR, ABCA1, and SRB1 in a High-Fat Diet Rat Model

Figure 6

The mRNA and protein expression levels of lipid transporters, as determined by qPCR and Western immunoblotting: CAV-1, VLDLR, LDLR, ABCA1, and SRB1. (a) Liver tissue (mRNA); (b) visceral adipose tissue (mRNA). Western blotting of the expression levels of the proteins CAV-1, VLDLR, LDLR, ABCA1, and SRB1. (c) Liver tissue; (d) visceral adipose tissue. Semiquantification of the expression levels of the proteins examined with regard to the levels of β-actin. (e) Liver tissue. (f) Visceral adipose tissue. The data are presented as mean±SEM (n=14), p<0.05 and p<0.01 versus NFD; #p<0.05 and ##p<0.01 versus HFD.
