Regulators of lipid uptake, de novo lipogenesis, and TG synthesis. CD36 protein expression (A), acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) protein expression (B), fatty acid synthase (FAS) protein expression (C), glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase-1 (GPAT-1) gene expression (D), diglyceride acyltransferase-1 (DGAT1) protein expression (E), DGAT2 protein expression (F), stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD-1) gene expression (G), and SCD-1 protein expression (H). All values are means ± SE. Values with different letters are significantly different; P < 0.05. AU, arbitrary units.
