Exercise and Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Supplementation for the Treatment of Hepatic Steatosis in Hyperphagic OLETF Rats

Figure 4

Hepatic fatty acid oxidation. Carnitine palmitoyl transferase (CPT)-1 activity (a), hepatic complete fatty acid oxidation (¹⁴CO₂) (b), hepatic total fatty acid oxidation (¹⁴CO₂ + ¹⁴C ASM) (c), hepatic total extramitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (¹⁴CO₂ + ¹⁴C ASM) in the presence of etomoxir (d), citrate synthase activity (e), and β-HAD activity (f). Values with different letter superscripts are significantly different from each other (𝑃<0.05).

(a) CPT-1 activity

(b) Complete FAO (¹⁴C palmitate to CO₂)

(c) Total FAO (complete + incomplete)

(d) Total extramitochondrial FAO (+ etomoxir)

(e) Citrate synthase activity

(f) 𝛽-HAD activity
