Table 6. Digoxigenin-labeled in situ hybridization in triglyceride subgroups.
High triglyceride rats show increased hypothalamic galanin but decreased orexin mRNA cell density, as assessed by digoxigenin-labeled in situ hybridization (Experiment 3B).
Subgroup | PVN GAL (cells/µm × 10−5) |
PVN ENK (cells/µm × 10−5) |
PFLH OX (cells/µm × 10−5) |
PFLH MCH (cells/µm × 10−5) |
---|---|---|---|---|
Low | 2.09 ± 0.03 | 2.74 ± 0.14 | 7.42 ± 0.22 | 8.44 ± 0.22 |
Middle | 2.72 ± 0.07** | 2.79 ± 0.05 | 6.31 ± 0.20** | 8.25 ± 0.25 |
High | 3.02 ± 0.16** | 2.99 ± 0.13 | 6.54 ± 0.30** | 8.29 ± 0.19 |
