Figure 5. Metabolic alterations related to fatty acids and triacylglycerides metabolism.

Figure 5

(a) Boxplots showing the altered metabolites. Boxes denote interquartile ranges, lines denote medians and whiskers denote 10th and 90th percentiles. Metabolite relative abundance, expressed as ratio or log-transformed, is calculated by referring metabolite peak intensity to a constant concentration of internal standard per mg of tissue. Green: control (C); blue: oxidative stress (OS); red: phospholipidosis (P); purple: steatosis (S). *, q value < 0.05; **, q value < 0.01; ***, q value < 0.001 calculated using the Mann Whitney test corrected for multiple testing by using FDR. (b) Fatty acids and triacylglycerides metabolism in the liver. DG: diacylglyceride; FA: fatty acid; MG: monoacylglyceride; TG: triacylglyceride; VLDL: very low-density lioprotein.
