Figure 3. Kupffer cell ablation in DIO mice is associated with altered hepatic lipid content.

Figure 3

Hepatic lipid content in normal chow-fed (lean) and diet-induced obese (DIO) mice was assessed 36 h following Kupffer cell ablation. A) Representative Oil Red O stained liver sections (20×) are displayed from mice treated with PBS- or CLD-containing liposomes. B) Lipids were extracted from frozen livers of lean (mean ±S.E. n=8) and DIO (mean ±S.E. n=6) mice. Triglyceride content (mg/wet weight) was normalized to protein content (mg/wet weight).
