TABLE 1.

Selected parameters in WT and mNTKO mice following ethanol feeding

10–12-Week-old male WT and mNTKO mice were divided into 4 groups as follows: 1) pair-fed WT control (WT); 2) ethanol-fed WT ethanol-containing diet; 3) mNTKO control; 4) ethanol-fed mNTKO. The animals were sacrificed after 4-weeks. Results are expressed as mean ± S.E. of 4–11 animals. Means without a common letter differ, p < 0.05.
