Figure 10. Reduced levels of cholesterol and triglyceride in the blood of Ngn3^Δint mice.

(A) Twenty-seven–week-old Ngn3^Δint mice have reduced cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood (n = 6; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01). (B) Similar levels of lipase, a digestive enzyme mainly produced and secreted by the acinar cells in the pancreas, are found in the blood of 27-week-old control and mutant mice (n = 4–5).
