Aldosterone deficiency attenuates obesity-induced hepatic steatosis. Fat deposition increased during HF feeding in wild-type liver, but appeared to be less in As−/− mice (a, Oil Red O staining; scale bar=100 μm). Liver triacylglycerol (TG) content increased significantly during HF feeding in wild-type mice, but was attenuated in As−/− mice (b). *p<0.05, ***p≤0.001
