Figure 3. Hepatic expression of bile acid synthesis rate-limiting protein CYP7A1 in pregnant and lactating rats.

Figure 3

Western blots were performed using liver homogenates from control, and pregnant rats in GD 10, 14, 19 and PND 1, 7, 14 and 21. The expression of CYP7A1 was semi-quantified by band intensity. Values are mean ± SEM (n = 5). Dark gray bars represent pregnant rats, and black bars represent lactating rats. The statistically significant difference was confirmed with a two-tailed independent samples test method (P < 0.05).
