Effect of leucine on plasma lipid profile and glucose level of apoE null mice. After leucine supplementation (1.5%) in drinking water for 8 weeks, (A) serum total triglyceride (TG), (B) total cholesterol (TC), (C) low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and (D) high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations were measured. (E) Distribution of cholesterol in plasma lipoproteins from control and leucine treated apoE null mice was measured by use of fast protein liquid chromatography (n=3). (F) Blood glucose levels at fasted and fed states were measured. Data are presented as the mean±SEM. n=8–9. bP<0.05 vs control.
