Effect of dietary fat on plasma biochemistry. Wild-type (Pparα+/+) and total Pparα knockout (Pparα−/−) mice were fed ad libitum or fasted for 24 h and then euthanized at ZT14. Quantification of plasma glucose (a); free fatty acids (b); plasma triglycerides (c); LDL cholesterol (d); HDL cholesterol (e); total cholesterol (f); alanine transaminase (ALT) (g); and aspartate transaminase AST (h) activity is given as mean ± SEM. n = 6–8 mice/genotype/diet. * Significant genotype effect, # significant effect of diet composition, § significant effect of fasting. *, #, §
