Overexpression of HNF1α or inhibition of CFD attenuated triglyceride accumulation in free fatty acid (FFA) induced HepG2 cells and primary hepatocytes of hHNF1Amut/- mice
(A and B) The TG content in FFA-pretreated HepG2 cells transfected with WT HNF1α and HNF1α P291fsinsC mutation (A) or treated with CFD inhibitor ACH-4471 (B).
(C) The knockdown efficiency of three mouse Cfd siRNAs.
(D and E) The TG level (D) and the expression of genes related to de novo lipogenesis (Fasn, Srebp-1c, Scd1) and fatty acid uptake (Pparg, Cd36 and Fatp2) (E) of the primary hepatocytes of hHNF1Amut/- mice transfected with siCfd1 and siCfd2. All data were presented as mean ± SD. ∗p < 0.05; ∗∗p < 0.01; ∗∗∗p < 0.001 by Ordinary one-way ANOVA test.
