Figure 3. Deletion of SOAT2 inhibits diet-induced cholesterol ester accumulation in the liver.

Figure 3

Lipids of pre-weighed liver sample (50 to 100 mg) were extracted with CHCl3/MeOH (2:1). Quantification of hepatic lipids was determined by commercial enzymatic assay kits. (A) Hepatic total cholesterol (TC); (B) cholesterol ester (CE); (C) free cholesterol (FC); (D) triglycerides (TG). Data represent the mean ± SEM from 19 to 20 mice per group and are expressed as mg lipids per wet weight. Bars not sharing common letters differ with P < 0.05.
