Fig 3. Effects of perinatal choline status on liver weight and lipid composition in 4-wk-old piglets.

Fig 3

Values are means of 8 replicate pigs exposed to prenatal and postnatal choline treatments (e.g., CS/CS as the control group) with tissue samples collected at 27–30 d of age. A) Relative liver weight was not different between perinatal choline treatments, B) Piglets fed CD milk replacer exhibited higher (P < 0.01) hepatic lipid concentration compared with piglets fed CS milk replacer, regardless of prenatal choline status. Abbreviations: AHF, acid hydrolyzed fat; CD, choline deficient; CS, choline sufficient
