Table 1. Hepatic lipid content in WT, LKO, DKO, and TKO mice.

Liver lipid concentrations (nmol lipid/mg liver homogenate protein) were determined as described in Methods.

Lipid WT nmol/mg LKO nmol/mg DKO nmol/mg TKO nmol/mg
Total Lipid 189±7a 229±5b 370±30c 380±20c
C 22±1a 32±2b 33±4b 45±4c
CE 20±1a 28±1b 61±9c 53±5c
NEFA 28±2a 19±1b 90±5c 93±7c
PL 32±1a 82±4b 89±6b 86±7b
TG 87±7a 74±3a 90±10a 99±6a

C, cholesterol; CE, cholesteryl ester; NEFA, nonesterified fatty acid; PL phospholipid; TG, triglyceride. Total lipid concentrations were obtained by adding the individual lipid concentrations. Values = means ± SEM (n = 8). Statistically different values (P < 0.05, ANOVA) within a row (lipid class) are denoted by a different lower-case letter (a, b, c).
