Data are given as mean ± SD (n = 20, each genotype) in arbitrary units normalized to 18 S RNA contend. T-test C57Bl6 vs. alb-SREBP-1c: **p<0.01.
The hepatic expression level of genes was determined by RT-PCR (n = 20 each). The relative RNA amount shown in arbitrary units was calculated and plotted ± S.D. Students t-test was performed to determine significance (C57Bl6 vs. alb-SREBP-1c mice: **p<0.01).
