FIG. 6.

Hepatic lipid metabolism during fasting and refeeding from NT and hGLUT4 TG mice fed CD or HFD for 8 weeks. Livers were removed from mice fasted for 17 h (Fasted) or fasted mice refed for 4 h (Refed) after 8 weeks on the diet. Hepatic mRNA was isolated and analyzed for SREBP-1c mRNA (A) and FAS mRNA (B) (four independent experiments). Lipid-soluble material was isolated from blood plasma (n = 5 per group) (C) and liver homogenates (D) and assayed for total TAG level (n = 5 per group). Statistical differences between fasted and refed mice are indicated. *Significant difference in refed mice between strains and diets, ¶significant difference in fasted animals when comparing both strains and diets, #significant difference in fasted animals when comparing the same diet in different strains, and †significant difference in refed animals when comparing the same strain. NS, not significant.
