Figure 5. Hepatic fatty acid composition.

Figure 5

(A) Hepatic fatty acid composition for total lipids, (B) the cholesterol ester (CE) fraction, (C) the triglyceride (TG) fraction and (D) the phospholipid (PL) fraction in livers from Elovl6+/+Ldlr−/− and Elovl6−/−Ldlr−/− mice fed a standard diet (SD) or a lithogenic diet (LD) for 4 weeks. Hepatic total lipids were extracted, and the major classes of lipids were separated on a silica column. The lipid fractions were methyl-esterified and quantified by gas chromatography (n = 3–6 per group). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01.
