Figure 1. Plasma levels of Hcy and Met, and organ weight in transgenic CBS deficient mice.
Tg-hCBSapoE−/− Cbs mice were fed a HF diet at 8 weeks of age for an additional 8 weeks. The Tg-S466L Cbs and Tg-hCBS apoE−/−Cbs mice were fed a rodent chow. A, B & C, Plasma levels of Hcy and Met. D, Body weight, E, F, G and H. heart, liver, spleen and kidney weights relative to tibia lengths, respectively. Values are mean±SD. P values from independent t test. n=10–12, Hcy, homocysteine; Met, methionine, HF, high fat.
