Figure 5. Development of steatotic liver in non-treated KO males.

(A) HE or Oil-red-O staining of livers from WT and KO males fasted for 24 h. C: central vein; P: portal vein. Magnification, 200x. (B) Serum levels of total cholesterol, HDL and LDL in males. Columns denote mean ± SE determined in 6 individual animals. Opened and closed columns represent WT and KO males, respectively. Unpaired t-test was used to compare the levels between genotypes (*WT vs KO, p<0.05).
