Fold of change in the expression level of genes involved in lipogenesis and fatty acid oxidation

CBZ# Rapamycin# 29% ED$ HFD*
Srebp-1c 1.18±0.13 1.45±0.46 1.33±0.33 2.77±0.29a
Fasn 0.97±0.17 1.53±0.61 3.41±1.72 1.88±0.11a
Acc1 0.84±0.11 0.94±0.21 0.48±0.06a 0.82±0.08

Hepatic RNA were isolated and subjected to quantitative RT-PCR for the genes indicated. The expression levels were normalized with cyclophilin A and compared to untreated controls, which is set at 1.0. Srebp-1c, sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c, Fasn: fatty acid synthase, Acc1: acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1, Acox1: acyl-CoA oxidase 1, Cpt1a: carnitine-palmitoyl transferase, 1a. ND: not determined. Values shown are mean±SEM.

Letter a indicates p<0.01, letter b indicates p<0.05 (t test).

#

Mice were given CBZ (25 mg/kg) or rapamycin (2 mg/kg) by i.p. and sacrificed 16 hours later. Expression levels are compared to control mice without treatment (n=3–6).

$

Mice were given 29% ethanol liquid diet for 4 weeks. Expression levels were compared to mice receiving control liquid diet (n=3).

*

Mice were given HFD for 20 weeks. Expression levels were compared to mice receiving regular chow diet (n=4–6).
