Effect of Continuous Feeding of Ayu-Narezushi on Lipid Metabolism in a Mouse Model of Metabolic Syndrome

Figure 4

PPARα (a), ACO (b), and CPT1 (c) mRNA levels in liver and PPARα (d) mRNA levels in visceral fat. Each tissue was isolated at 24 weeks of age. The mRNA levels were determined by real-time PCR, normalized to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. The data represent the mean ± standard deviation of 5 animals. Significantly different from the control group with  < 0.05;  < 0.01. PPAR, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor; ACO, acyl-CoA oxidase; and CPT1, carnitine-palmitoyl transferase.
